POPULAR QUESTIONS

  • What type of inspection report is supplied?

    A report showing that an inspection was completed and what the inspection found is usually required before purchase. In addition, there is usually a requirement for what is listed on the form.

  • Can I perform the inspection myself?

    Inspecting your own house is not recommended. Home inspectors are specially trained to look for things you may miss. Unless you are a home inspector yourself, seek out a professional. Some states or lenders require a licensed inspector to complete the inspection.

  • What is covered during the home inspection?

    Not all home inspectors cover the same things. Each state has legal requirements for home inspections. This does not guarantee that the inspector you choose will automatically inspect for those required items. Make sure you that you educate yourself on the list of state requirements for inspections.

  • How long will the home inspection take?

    Knowing the length of time for an inspection is important. You usually have to arrange a time with the realtor and the current owner for the inspector to examine the house. An inspection usually involves looking at pipes, wiring, roofing, and areas that may be hard to reach. Therefore,  it may require hours to complete. The home inspector you choose should provide you with an accurate estimate of how long the inspection is expected to take.

  • Is the home inspection a pass or fail process?

    The inspection is designed to tell you what needs to be repaired on the house. There is not such thing as a pass or fail. There are requirements to be met in order for a lender to give you the money for the home. As a result, some repairs may have to be made. This does not mean that the house has “failed” the inspection. However, some repairs may be necessary, in order for the house to be sold.

  • What happen if problems come up during inspection?

    There are potential problems that can come up during inspections. The seller of the home is not automatically required to repair any problems that the inspector finds. As the buyer, you can negotiate for the repairs to be made before you buy the home. If the seller is not willing to do the repairs for you, you can legally terminate the contract. If you still want to purchase the house but your financial lender wants the repairs made, you may have to make the repairs at your own expense.
