What is a home inspection?
I have a reputation for being thorough!!
A standard residential home inspection should take approximately 2 1/2 hours or more depending on age and size, but no less than 2 hours for a thorough inspection. The exception to this would be condominium inspections.
Remember, You get to choose the inspector you want; Set up the inspection yourself using our easy online scheduler, or send us a text, email, or call us and we will do the rest.
Don't skip a Home Inspection.
Ask most experts, and they'll tell you it's not a good idea to waive a home inspection.
A home/property Inspection is worth the extra cost when you're making one of the biggest purchases of your life. A professional Home/property Inspection will help you make a better-informed decision.
Keep in mind. A home inspector's only obligation is to you, the client. We have no other vested interest in the property being inspected. We only work for you!!
Keep an open mind. Be prepared.
It is important to keep an open mind when looking at potential properties or reviewing an inspection report. Some things will be typical, for example, the older the home the more areas of needed repairs or updates may be found. Older properties often show signs of wear and tear just as anything would.
What do I do with my report findings?
The inspector will provide a detailed report of observations made. You the client determine what to do with that information. The inspector does not decide what items get repaired/replaced prior to purchase or sale, or in connection with the purchase or sale of a property. You may decide to repair/ replace items yourself or negotiate them or even purchase or sell the property "As is".
What exactly is a home inspection?
A non-invasive, visual examination of accessible areas, systems, and components of a property at the time of the inspection. Per Illinois state law, the scope of the inspection, describing limitations & exclusions, shall be in a written agreement between the inspection & client, prior to inspection. Iowa does not currently have license requirements for inspectors. The attached sample report is a collection of findings and pictures from various inspections for example purposes only and does not represent a complete inspection report.
