A home inspection is a process where we discover what your prospective homes’ systems are and what condition they are in. It is an opportunity for homebuyers to ask questions about the home from a neutral and unbiased home inspector professional. My responsibility is only to you! Look at the ASHI Client Bill of Rights for a complete list.
What are we looking for?
Essentially we first want to identify what the house is made of – literally. Then we will tell you what we found. We identify significant issues, technically called material defects, and then put them in perspective for you. We will also identify issues that can improve the comfort or safety of the property but are items you can think of as upgrades in the future. The end product of our inspection is a clear and concise document rich with photographs and illustrations identifying the issues in an online report and PDF that you can download.
What’s a Material Defect?
A material defect is a significant issue with a system or a component that may impact the property’s value or could be an unreasonable risk to people.
What specifically will we be looking at?
