Buying a residential home or commercial property is a sizable investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the issues, but it will also point out the positives and any potential maintenance that may be required in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will posses a deeper understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the sale or confident enough to move forward with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be used to spot problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to avoid costly future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may want to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will bring to light areas of concern that might be identified by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to perform the repairs beforehand or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
