Good to know

Questions, answered

A home inspection is a thorough evaluation of the systems that work together to make a home comfortable, safe and resilient. Those systems include the structure, exterior, roof, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation and interior. Appliances that typically stay with the home when sold are also inspected.

A good home inspector gives you a clear idea of which issues need attention and helps you prioritize them. Often these findings inform your purchase negotiation and can save you a great deal of expense and unpleasant surprises down the road.
