Purchasing a residential home or commercial property is a substantial investment. And, knowing the condition of the property before you buy can offer beneficial insight into whether the purchase is a good decision.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the problems, but it will also reveal the positives and any probable 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 identify problem areas and to learn what preventive measures can be employed to avoid pricey future repairs.
If you are 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 identified by the buyer’s inspector. You may then determine whether to make the repairs beforehand or to disclose the data to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
