WHY GET A HOME INSPECTION?
Buying a home is one of the most significant decisions - and one of
the biggest investments - you will ever make.
A home is more than the sum of its parts. It’s the place in which
you dream and live your life. It’s where you spend quality time with
family and friends; it’s your nest-egg, your retirement, your legacy
to your children. As such, purchasing a home is as much an emotional
investment as a financial one.
Because the decision is primarily emotional, you may be blinded to
the parts of the house that are not performing. Missed problems can
swiftly turn your dream home into a nightmare.
Independent Assessment By A Professional
A professional home inspection will enable you to learn a great deal
about the ins-and-outs of a particular home, answer some very
important questions, and help give you peace of mind.
An inspection of the home you are considering will help you make an
informed decision during the purchase process. It also builds a
foundation of knowledge about the house and its systems, allowing
you to take true pride of ownership.
Equipped with home-maintenance information, you stand a far better
chance of protecting your investment and increasing its worth over
time.
Who do you go to for help?
Peace of mind is a precious commodity when you are making the major
purchase of your life. A professional home inspection benefits
everyone, from the buyer to the seller as well as any other
professionals involved with the sale.
eINSPECTION provides a comprehensive visual inspection of a house,
reporting on as many as 1,600 interior and exterior items in a
comprehensive survey. Our inspectors are highly trained to inspect
all systems for existing and potential problems. eINSPECTION
inspectors also carry errors and omissions insurance and provide a
written report on the house.
Finding Problems Is Not The Goal...
The goal of a home inspection is to provide an accurate reflection
of the condition of the house. Most often a home inspection report
just assures the buyer that he or she can proceed without taking a
leap into a potential money pit.
If the inspector uncovers any deficiencies, the buyer then has an
opportunity to take the cost of repairs into account in the offer to
purchase. Or, the vendor can make the repairs to remove any
impediment to the sale of the house. Often, the home inspector can
suggest alternative, reasonably-priced fixes. |
