SHOULD I HIRE A HOME INSPECTOR ? THE ANSWER IS YES AND HERE’S WHY !

FACT: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HOME IN PERFECT CONDITION !

THAT’S A BOLD STATEMENT AND IT’S TRUE EVEN WITH NEW HOMES !

‘Home Inspections’ are a fast growing industry for one simple reason. Homeowners have purchased homes only to find they have purchased the seller’s problems. A Home Inspection is VERY CHEAP compared to the hassle, let alone the cost that could lie in wait for a New Home Owner. If you don’t take measures to make sure your prospective home is sound, or that you know what short-comings it has, you are gambling with your family’s health and your mortgage. Do yourself a big favor and hire a HOME INSPECTOR and get:

• Knowledge to bargain with the seller to make concessions or necessary repairs
• More knowledge of your home and how it works
• An expectation of what systems might be wearing out
• Peace of mind that there isn’t something seriously wrong with the property you are about to purchase

Some say, “But It Will Be Appraised”. An appraisal is completely different in that it only determines market value. Appraisers compare a home’s size, location and ONLY the General Condition of the home. Home Inspectors look for problems! Most all problems are visible and these are the things that could cost you bundles of money if you aren’t aware they exist. A Home Inspection is essential to the purchase of any home, new or previously owned. Having a professional trained Home Inspector inspect your home can possibly save you thousands of dollars and keep you from buying and getting stuck with a home which has problems that belonged to the previous owner until you bought the home. As ALL Realtors will tell you…GET IT INSPECTED! There is NO substitute for a Professional Home Inspection.
