Additional Inspection Services

Pre Listing Home Inspection Services

Pre-Listing Inspection

Home-sellers also need to have their property inspected to check for defective areas prior to the home being shown to prospective buyers. This leaves time to optionally correct the issues or to inform the prospective buyers at the outset of negotiations so that there isn’t a breakdown in communication that could lead to a stalled sale.

New Construction Home Inspections Services

New Construction Inspection

This is an inspection service that needs to take place before the builder of your prospective new home has conducted a final walkthrough of the property. We’ll assess the condition of the visible and readily accessible areas, providing our unbiased opinion about existing strengths and weaknesses so that you can judge whether or not to request repairs or maintenance before a sale is final.

Maintenance Home Inspection Services

Home Maintenance Inspection

Properly maintaining your home is the key to extending its safe and sound condition for as many years as you choose to live in it. With this inspection service, we’ll help you get the job done right by thoroughly inspecting the home and learning about its existing repair and maintenance issues. We’ll then give you our professional guidance about how to prioritize and perform the recommended work.

Re Inspection Home Inspection Services

Re-inspections

For your peace of mind, it’s important to schedule a re-inspection to take one more look at components the seller of the home agreed to repair or replace after receiving the results of our Buyer’s Inspection. We’ll investigate each component that was addressed to make sure that there are no more defects, making it easier for you to confidently proceed with final closing.
