Buying a residential home or commercial property is a big investment. And, knowing the condition of the property before you commit to the purchase can offer some insight into whether the purchase is a sensible choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only uncovers the issues, but it will also point out the positives and any potential maintenance that may be needed in the future. After a intensive inspection, you will have a deeper understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the sale or confident enough to continue with the purchase.
If you are already a property owner, a home inspection can be utilized to spot problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be taken to avoid pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection prior to going to market. The inspection will expose areas of concern that might be discovered by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to perform the repairs beforehand or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
