For most home sales an inspection is required by your lender or is a condition in the offer. Our pre-purchase inspection covers both the exterior and the interior of the home using visual, non-invasive methods and includes a comprehensive report including pictures/videos which will be presented to you following the inspection of the property. Generally reports are returned within 24 hours.
Standard Inspection reports include:
-
Foundation: Evaluation of the property’s foundation and whether or not it will pose any problems down the road
-
Roof/Attic: Weather permitting I will walk all accessible areas of the roof, if inaccessible drone inspections are performed. Attics are inspected where accessible.
-
Structure: We take a close look at the structural integrity of the home, as it will determine several other factors moving forward
-
Exterior: We examine the exterior including the roof, siding, decks, fences, exposed foundation, manufactured home skirting and the overall condition of the yard including potential drainage issues
-
Interior: We complete a thorough walk through the house examining any deficiencies, test all appliances and provide thermal imaging of ceilings, windows, walls and doors
-
Plumbing/HVAC: All exposed plumbing and heating and ventilation systems are inspected
-
Electrical: I inspect the electrical service connection, panel, receptacles and lighting to ensure the home’s electrical system is operating safely
-
Additional Details: I provide you with additional resource pages to help you learn about your home including where to disconnect all major services
