Before purchasing a home, you want to know as much as you can about it. No one likes surprises, especially when they come in the form of a broken water heater or cracked foundation. The home inspection gives you the information you need to decide whether to follow through with the purchase. It hones in on major issues so they surface before you sign on the dotted line.
Buying a house is a big investment. You want to choose the right home at the right price. A home inspection helps you make sure you’re putting the right amount of money into the right property.
After the home inspection is complete, you as the buyer may have the opportunity to go back to the seller to request repairs or an adjusted purchase price, based on issues found during the inspection. However, with that inspection report, it’s hard to have the leverage you need to go back to the negotiation table.
Part of the home inspector’s job is to give you a head’s up on major repairs that aren’t urgent but that may need to happen in the next few years. This information can help you plan ahead so you aren’t caught off guard when you need to replace the roof or upgrade your windows.
