Our Services
A good home inspection can help you buy or sell your home with confidence. As trained professionals, we have has seen it all and we can provide invaluable help in turning you into a knowledgeable consumer. A home inspection can also help sellers to understand the conditions that a buyer’s inspector may flag, giving the homeowner a chance to eliminate problems that could be barriers to a sale or cause reductions in selling price. Our inspection services include:
Purchaser Inspections:
In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well informed about the strengths and weaknesses of a property is to have us give you a professional home inspection. We are trained to identify problem areas both small and large that may have been overlooked in your initial walk-throughs. This can enable you to negotiate resolution of these issues before closing, saving considerable money and aggravation later. See our Inspection Overview for more details.
Foreclosure Inspections:
Purchasers of bank-owned and foreclosed properties should always have a home inspection. Most homes in this category have substantial issues and it may be difficult to evaluate whether the property is a diamond in the rough or a money pit to be avoided. A good home inspection can prove invaluable in helping make such evaluations, saving you a bundle in either avoiding the wrong property or assisting you in finding a tarnished jewel that can become a great home with minimal expense.
Sellers Inspections:
Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a Realtor, it is prudent to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses; we help you discover how serious the problems are and which must be immediately addressed. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation. See our Inspection Overview for more details.
Warranty Inspection:
Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction. Generally, during this time, the buyer develops a "punch list" of corrections for the contractor to repair under the warranty coverage. Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. It is important to obtain a home inspector's list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You can rest assured knowing that potential problems were addressed before growing into something that could cost you a great deal down the road.
Environmental Hazards:
One aspect of a good home inspection is to advise you of unknown problems and potential environmental hazards in your current or potential house. We do a non-invasive visual inspection of your property, which can alert you to potential problems and/or environmental hazards. Issues that we look for include asbestos, mold, and chemical residues from deteriorating building materials including lead paint, EFT emissions from power lines, and nearby hazards that may affect your safety.
