Getting A Home Inspection Is Critical With New House Construction

Submitted by: Kirya Duncan

Getting a home inspection is the best investment that you can make when buying or building a new home. To have a home inspection is to understand the significance of knowing exactly what you are getting and protecting that investment by ensuring all of your questions are answered by a highly experienced, professional, knowledgeable, unbiased third party. Because purchasing a new home is one of the most difficult decisions one can make, it’s imperative to have a qualified professional come and do your inspections.

What is a home inspection?

A home inspection is an unbiased and objective visual examination of the physical structure (walls, floors, foundation, roof, etc.) and systems (mechanical, plumbing, electrical) of a property, from the roof to the foundation and everything in between. It does not estimate the value of the house, rather it determines the condition of the home. A home inspection is for your safety, your financial protection, and equally important, your peace of mind. Home inspections are now considered so routine that an estimated 80 percent of all home buyers invest in one.

What does a home inspection disclose?

A home inspection will help determine the overall condition of the home, providing detailed information on every important aspect of the building. Your home inspector collects data as he observes every nook and cranny of the home. After this information is compiled, it is then put together in a written report that explains the overall assessment of your home. It discloses an informed opinion about the condition of the home and if any issues are in need of addressing. Your inspector will ensure you completely understand the findings in the report he’s providing to you. Your report, which contains a wealth of information, will help you to keep your new home in great condition for years to come.

Why should I use a licensed home inspector?

Home inspectors are familiar with basic residential construction methods, practices, and materials. They are trained to know how to inspect, where to inspect, and what to inspect. Also, a qualified inspector has liability insurance just in case they overlook a needed repair. It is recommended that you choose a home inspector that is accredited and belongs to a home inspection association. You may pay a little more in fees but, this is a small price to pay for a piece of mind when it comes to the biggest investment in your life.

Getting a home inspection is a small price to pay for an assurance that you are getting a well constructed home. It can also help you to monitor the quality of a home you are having built, and it can help you to catch problems while your home is still under warranty. A home inspection is a must for anyone investing in a residential property. The whole point of getting a home inspection is to give you more information. Since buying a home may be the most expensive single investment you’ll ever make, you want to make sure you hire a thorough, professional & unbiased home inspector.
