Inspections
It is always in the best interest of a home buyer to have a professional home inspection performed. A professional home inspection will reveal problems prior to purchase.
​
When we inspect the home we will look at the systems that make up the building such as:
-
Structural elements, foundation, attic, framing, grounds and lancscaping
-
Plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems
-
Roofing, exterior surfaces and porches or decks
-
Kitchens, bathrooms and fireplaces, interior surveys, etc...
​
Our report uses a DDID procedure to completey detail a finding. We will describe what we see, determine the deficiency, provide the implications of the finding (why it matters) and give direction in how to proceed with the finding.
​
To protect yourself, make sure your contract has an inspection contingency. Then, arrange for an inspector of your choosing to come inspect the house and pay close attention to the entire inspection report.
​
The professional home inspection will reduce the risk of costly surprises with what is likely to be the largest purchase you will ever make. It helps you to make a more informed, more comfortable decision.
Help take the burden off the process, by gaining knowledge in advance, in a calm and thoughtful atmosphere.
New Construction?
​
There are good reasons to have a professional inspection performed on the brand new home you are buying. You can have this inspection done at the end of construction or during several phases of construction.
Buying a new house is likely one of, if not the largest purchase decision youll ever make. The whole process is fraught with emotion and stress. A professional home inspection will substantially reduce the risk for your large investment in a new home. It just makes sense to learn as much as you can about the quality of your new home, before signing off on everything.
Building a new home is a tremendously complex endeavor. It involves many people, usually split up into sub-contractor groups, each working on different parts and systems of the house. Even for the best builders, its nearly impossible to complete this process without missing something. Maybe its a plumbing fixture that didnt get tested for leaks, maybe its an electrical box that isnt working, or any one of dozens of minor problems that can easily be overlooked in such a major undertaking. We will find such problems while it is still early enough for you to bring them up with the builder and have them corrected before you sign-off and start moving in.
For the relatively small cost, a professional inspection of your new dream home can pay big dividends in peace of mind and getting any problems identified and corrected before they can become an unpleasant surprise.

Selling your home?
Want to get the highest price in the shortest time possible?
​
Making sure your home is in top condition will help you accomplish this. Almost all sales contracts are contingent on a home inspection. If a problem is found during this period of the process, it can cause delays in closing, or worse, the contract could fall through. It also leads to stress in possible last minute repairs you may face.
​
A pre-listing inspection will identify problems so that you can make the decision to make repairs, on your schedule, and allow you the opportunity to search for a contractor based on quality and cost effectiveness. This isnpection will also allow you to list the findings "as is" and reflect them in the purchase price, eliminating the need for a repair.
