Have you ever needed to hire a home inspector? What do you look for when shopping around for the right company? One of the biggest problems when looking for a home inspector is that people automatically go by price without digging any deeper into what they are actually paying for. Not all home inspection companies are created equal and most of those $100 dollar home inspections can end up in a lawsuit. When ordering a home Inspection take your time and don't be afraid to ask questions. The Inspectors job is to provide an unbiased, professional assessment of the condition of the house. The inspection should offer you an expert opinion and professional report on the condition of the physical structure and various systems within a house.
Items that will typically be included in an inspection are:
- Framing (structure)
- Roof and attic
- Foundation
- Walls
- Electrical system
- Plumbing system
- Heating and air conditioning systems
- Kitchen
- Bathrooms
Additional items and systems unique to a particular home can also be inspected.
