Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a big investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer important insight into whether the purchase is a good choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only highlights the issues, but it will also reveal the positives and any potential maintenance that may be needed in the future. After a thorough inspection, you will have 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 find 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 before going to market. The inspection will expose areas of concern that may be discovered by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to perform the repairs in advance or to disclose the data to a potential buyer giving you an upper hand when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
