Why
do I need a home inspection?
The
purchase of a home is the largest single investment you will
ever make. You should learn as much as you can about the condition
of the property and the need for any major repairs before
you buy to minimize unpleasant surprises and difficulties
afterwards. A home inspection can also point out the positive
aspects of a home. After the inspection, you will have a much
clearer understanding of the house you are about to purchase.
If
you are already a home owner, a home inspection may be used
to identify problems in the making and to learn preventative
measures which might avoid costly future repairs. If you are
planning to sell your home, you may wish to have an inspection
prior to placing your home on the market. This will give you
a better understanding of conditions which may be discovered
by the buyer's inspector, and an opportunity to make repairs
that will put the house in better selling condition.
