Avoid buyer's remorse
Purchasing a new home can sometimes feel like a life-altering decision, and the last thing you want is to feel like you made the wrong decision. If you don't have sufficient information about the property, you may just feel that way, though. With our thorough home inspections, we are here to help you to know exactly what you're getting. Whether the home is brand new, new-ish, or older than your grandparents, we can help you to sleep better knowing that you won't have any surprises cropping up and ruining the joyous occasion of owning a new home.
negotiation
Gain leverage
Upon completion of a home inspection we provide a detailed summary of our findings, and our report may give you some extra leverage in negotiations with sellers. If issues are found during an inspection, though sellers aren't guaranteed to follow through on requests, knowing the risks of a property can possibly help you save money. Some costly items that can be caught by an inspection are roofs, foundation problems, potential HVAC and water heater issues, among others.
Expectations
Be prepared
Just because you're planning to remodel, doesn't mean you should skip an inspection; if you end up going through with the purchase of a fixer-upper or a home that just needs some TLC, having an inspection report can give you a reference guide you can follow as you're prioritizing the projects to take on. Along those same lines, the report can also help to give you a relative idea of the current "shelf life" of your new home's equipment and structure, which can help you to plan ahead for potential maintenance costs.
