Home Inspection

When you have found a home you like, we will help arrange an inspection. We have several inspectors we recommend for new and resale homes, or you can use any inspector of your choice. This is an overview of what the inspection may cover:

Check to see that utilities are accessible and easily maintained by utility companies without having to destroy buildings and landscaping within your property lines.
If serviced by a well, have water tested for potability and test the well output to be sure it falls within acceptable standards. Check the incoming service line and pressure tank for leaks.
If serviced by a septic system, have the system inspected including the tank, leach field and service line. Be sure there is access for cleaning out the lines. Have the system pumped.
If serviced by city water, be sure the meter is operating properly and check the service line for leaks.
If serviced by public sewer, check the service line for leaks, roots and other obstructions.
If there are any questions or doubts, hire individual experts to do further examinations. (For example, if the foundation is in question, hire a structural engineer.)
Always get a disclosure statement prior to closing. In this statement sellers must reveal any known defects.
If the home requires repairs, it is best to not allow the seller to have them done. Instead, get your own estimates and plan to have them done on your own after closing. Negotiate either a reduction in price by to cover the repairs or have money put into escrow by the seller. (If sellers do the repairs, they often have them done as quickly and cheaply as possible.)
Always require a final walk through before closing and after furniture has been moved out. This can help you find concealed damage or damage sellers did while moving out.
