What Home Inspectors Do? |
One of the best ways to understand about a home’s condition, habitability and safety is to hire a professional home inspector. A properly trained home inspector will review your house as a system, looking at how one component of the house might affect the operability or lifespan of another. Home inspectors will go through the property and perform a comprehensive visual inspection to assess the condition of the house and all of its systems. They will determine the components that are not performing properly as well as items that are beyond their useful life or are unsafe. They will also identify areas where repairs may be needed or where there may have been problems in the past. Inspections are intended to provide the client with a better understanding of property conditions, as observed at the time of the inspection.
A pre-purchase inspection for a 1,500 to 2,200 sq. ft. home typically takes us about two-three hours. After the inspection, the buyer will be sent a computer generated report consolidating the details of the inspection within 24 hours (usually less). We recommend that potential buyers accompany the inspector as the inspection takes place, or at least be present at the end of the inspection to go over what has been found during the inspection. It can be a valuable learning experience.
