Buyers Inspection

In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well-informed about the strengths and weaknesses of a property is to have us perform a professional home inspection. We are trained to identify problem areas both small and large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners and to identify which require immediate attention.

Sellers Inspection

Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a Realtor, it’s always a prudent idea to have a professional home inspection. All homes have strengths and weaknesses. We help you determine how serious any problems are, which must be immediately addressed and which can wait.

The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation.

New Construction Phase Inspection

In a new home, the quality of construction is often not what it used to be. Therefore, many buyers have independent reviews of their properties during various stages of the construction process, including slab, frame, and final inspection. This relatively inexpensive inspection protects your purchase, prevents unpleasant surprises, and ensures the quality home that you’ve dreamed about.

Warranty Inspection

Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction. Generally during this period of time, the buyer develops a “punch list” of corrections for the contractor to repair under the warranty coverage.

Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. It is prudent to obtain our home inspectors list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you.

You will be reassured knowing that potential problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a great deal down the road.
