Home Inspection FAQs

An inspection report is for your use only to evaluate any issue that might exist in the home. You have given us permission to discuss our observations with real estate agents, owners, repair persons, or other interested parties if required so that any concerns that may arise due to the home inspection can be evaluated. You will be the sole owner of the report and all rights to it. Any and all inspections and reports are in no way a guarantee or warranty. We do not perform engineering, architectural, plumbing, and electrical, HVAC, structural or any other job function requiring inspection of code laws in the jurisdiction where the property is located.

When buying a new home all warranties and guarantees are the responsibility of the home builder. Just like when you buy a new car it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to honor the warranty and fix all issues within said warranty time period it, this is the same with new construction. This is one of the strongest reasons to get a home inspection on a new home before closing and/or a 11 month warranty inspection. Not every homeowner knows what to look for the training or even has all the equipment to do a detailed home inspection on a new home and that is why a home inspection gives you piece of mind when buying a new home.

Not all homeowners know ALL the conditions that exist in their home when they are selling a home. There are occasionally some issues that people that are selling a home may have and are not even aware of. This is not that they are trying to withhold any information it is because they are simply unaware of them. Remember you are buying a used/existing home, there are always going to be items that you might feel need to be fixed and in some cases they should be fixed before you take occupancy of the home and you should expect this. A good home inspector is not looking to make you feel weary about buying a home we are trying to make you aware of any items that me be of concern to you now or down the road.
