Buying a residential home or commercial property is a substantial investment. And, knowing the condition of the property prior to closing can offer worthwhile insight into whether the purchase is a smart choice.
A home inspection or property inspection not only exposes the issues, but it will also bring to light the positives and any potential maintenance that may be vital in the future. After a complete inspection, you will posses a stronger understanding of the property and be better prepared to renegotiate the price or confident enough to continue 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 prevent pricey future repairs.
If you are considering selling your home, you may wish to have a home inspection before going to market. The inspection will reveal areas of concern that might be found by the buyer’s inspector. You may then choose whether to make the repairs beforehand or to disclose the problem areas to a potential buyer giving you an advantage when negotiating and ensuring a smooth sale.
