Pre-Listing/Seller’s Home Inspections
If you don’t know what shape your home is truly in, how can you expect to pick an informed list price? Choosing a Seller’s Home Inspection service is a solid investment that will help you determine not only the house’s value, but what action items you can correct to boost your odds of making a quick sale. Remember: all homes have issues, but correcting or disclosing them up-front makes buyers feel more comfortable with the process.
New Construction Inspections
Your newly constructed home may be a dream come true, but that doesn’t mean it’s absolutely perfect. Many contractors make small mistakes and some even purposefully cut corners to save time and money. By scheduling a New Construction Inspection service, you can make sure your new house is exactly as expected and promised.
4-Point Insurance Inspections
If you’re buying a house that’s more than 30 years old, the odds are high that your insurance company is going to require a 4-Point Inspection. This service looks at the home’s four most vital points: Roof, HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical. The insurance company will then review the inspection report to determine if anything needs to be repaired before they’ll insure the property.
