What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is a comprehensive look at a home
by a qualified professional. It is designed to
inform you of the condition of the property, the
life expentancy of its major systems. A home
inspection will give you "the big picture" of your
decision, the estimated maintenance and cost of
repairs.
How long will my home inspection take?
A basic home inspection will depend on the size of
the house, its condition, and age. Generally
speaking, a home inspection will take around two to
three hours on average.
Should the buyer be present at their home
inspection?
In one word, definitely! The home inspector
will give you valuable insight into the home as you
go through your inspection. Some issues with home
inspections are best pointed out with the customer
and the inspector together.
Why do I need a home inspection?
Purchasing a home is a big decision for everyone.
It is very important to know as much as you can
before making a decision. A home inspection can save
you time and costly repairs as well as give you a
good understanding of the house's condition before
you buy.
What does a home inspection include?
The home and all of its major structures and
systems will be inspected. This includes the
condition of the homes plumbing and electrical
system, heating and air conditioning system, roof,
foundation, attic, walls, doors, windows and all

What happens if something is wrong with the house
that I was not aware of?
Our inspections are designed to give you an
overview of the condition of the condo. If a major
problem turns up during the inspection the buyer may
try to negotiate with the seller. It is best that
the buyer have a condo inspection in order to avoid
discovering needed costly repairs after they move in
and to ensure they make a good investment. For the
seller it is important that they know the condition
of their condo to avoid this surprise as well.
