Home Inspections - Home Buyer Tips


Too Tips For Home Buyers

Tip #7: Home inspections

 

 
Home inspections are an integral part of the home-buying process. Insist on one by including a professionally conducted home inspection in the sales agreement and noting the deal is contingent on your approval of its outcome. What you don’t know can hurt you!

This won’t surprise sellers—who know their home will be under a microscope prior to being sold—and many welcome an inspection to complement their disclosure statement. All inspections should include detailed information about the drainage, foundation, roof, interior and exterior paint, plumbing, wiring, heating, fireplace, tile, and any hazards associated with the property, as well as a termite report.

You'll have a chance to examine the home to see if it's in the same condition as when you made your offer during the final inspection, i.e., “the final walk-through.” Don’t skip this very important step!

Please let me know if you need a referral to a qualified inspector. I'm also available to address any questions or concerns you have about financing your purchase.
Sincerely,
