A standard home inspection includes a thorough visual evaluation of the home's major systems and components, such as the roof, foundation, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, interior, exterior, and appliances. We look for safety concerns, structural defects, and potential maintenance issues.
Most home inspections take between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size and condition of the property.
You are not required to be present, but we highly recommend it! Attending the inspection allows you to see any issues firsthand and ask questions directly to your inspector.
