What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an accurate and unbiased visual examination of the structure and systems of a home, from roof to foundation. When problems or symptoms of problems are found, the inspector may recommend further evaluation or remedies.

What if the report reveals problems?
No house is perfect. When the inspector identifies problems, it does not indicate you should not buy the house. His findings serve to inform the client about the condition of the property and seller may choose to adjust the purchase price if major problems are discovered during an inspection..

Why do I need a home inspection?
A home inspection summarizes the condition of a property, points out the need for major repairs and identifies areas that may need attention in the near future. A home inspection points out the positive aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After an inspection, both parties have a much clearer understanding of the value and needs of the property.

Can a house fail a home inspection?
No. A home inspection is an examination of the current condition of your home. It is not an appraisal, which determines market value, or a municipal inspection, which verifies compliance to local codes and standards. A home inspector will not pass or fail a house. A home inspection describes the physical condition of a property and indicates what may need repair or replacement.

Do I have to be there?
While it is not necessary for you to be present, it is highly recommended that you attend the inspection. This allows you to observe the inspector and ask questions as you learn about the condition of the home. After you have been through the house with the inspector, you will find the written report easier to understand.
