"Not only were they able to schedule a home inspection within a day or two of first being contacted, they were very detailed and very responsive. The day after the inspection the report was ready. The house itself was terrible but the inspection was thoroughly completed, listing everything that was wrong or could be a potential hazard/issue. I will absolutely be using them again."

"I have had the best experience with Customer Service ever. Ricky Magoon, the Sales Rep and Technician went over and above all expectations. From diagnosis to replacement of an old system. He has helped me solve a serious problem with drainage from a business next door to me. On his own time, and using his own equipment he dug a ditch to divert the rain and snow melt drainage away from my home and garage. In the past, it had flooded my basement and flowed through my garage. You should consider him a valuable asset to your Company."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

The standard home inspection period is typically around 10 days from when your offer is accepted, but this can range from one week to 21 days. The exact duration depends on factors like your location, the current state of the housing market, and how quickly the seller needs to close the deal. This period is the time you have to conduct a home inspection and decide whether to move forward with the purchase or back out. To confirm your specific timeline, you should check your offer agreement, as the language defining the inspection period will be included there.

While you can waive a home inspection when buying a house as-is, it’s not a good idea. An inspection will identify any current and potential problems with the home and give you a starting point to budget for repairs. An inspection will also alert you to any major problems with the house that may make you not want to proceed with the purchase.

You should schedule a fireplace inspection at least once a year, per the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). However, this is the minimum requirement even if you’re diligent with fireplace maintenance between uses. If you suspect your fireplace is malfunctioning, schedule one sooner to avoid fire hazards or the release of harmful emissions like carbon monoxide in your home.

A visual inspection may or may not reveal ceiling joists. Examine the ceiling surface for clues like nails, screws, or small dimples used to attach drywall or plaster to the joists. Look for subtle indentations or ridges indicating a joist beneath the surface. Observe any patterns or symmetrical features in the ceiling that could indicate the presence of underlying structural elements.

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.
