Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes. If a home inspection reveals that the property has major issues or is unsafe, the buyer can back out of the purchase.

As long as the home inspection reveals no problems with the property’s structure, it shouldn’t be an issue buying an underpinned home. In fact, a properly underpinned property can be more stable than houses that have never had structural issues. However, you could face a higher insurance premium if the property has a history of structural problems. You should always request a structural engineer’s report before making a final decision.

Using your realtor’s inspector may potentially speed up the home-buying process in that realtors are unlikely to recommend someone they’ve had prior difficulties with regarding scheduling or report turnaround time. There are other factors to consider, though—you don’t want a rushed inspection or a partial report. It’s more important that you work with a home inspector who can do a thorough assessment and explain any issues to you clearly.

You should consider walking away after a home inspection reveals any issues you’re unprepared to deal with after closing. It’s a good idea to consider all the problems the inspection raises and estimate the repair costs—or even get professional estimates for the work—before deciding if the home is still worth buying. Before making your decision, consider the state of the market and how quickly you need to relocate.

Older homes normally take longer to inspect than newer ones. Old homes are more prone to damage, deterioration, or outdated systems and features, and an inspector will need to note the condition of the home and anything in it that may need to be updated or repaired.
