Home inspections can be very stressful all around. Buyers are worried about whether they are getting a lemon, sellers worried about what will be found and how much it will cost them and the agents wondering if they'll lose the deal over the findings of the inspector. We aim to relieve some of that stress. Thoroughness is our watchword. If we can access it we will inspect it. For our buyers this means that they know they are making the most informed decision they can. When we do find a defect, rather than just making a check mark on our report we explain why it's a defect and suggest realistic remedies. This great for sellers as they aren't getting hit with unwarranted repair demands. For the agents, as a licensed Realtor I know where you're coming from, my goal is to help all parties "save the deal" that everyone's worked so hard for.

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Normal home inspections do not include sewer lines or septic systems, hazardous materials like radon or mold, swimming pools, electrical systems, or pest problems. Most of these require a separate inspection by a qualified pro in addition to a general home inspection.

It’s a good idea to be present for a home inspection so the inspector has access to anything they need for the inspection and so you can ask the home inspector questions if necessary. You don’t need to shadow the inspector while they’re conducting the inspection—in fact, it’s better if you don’t—but don’t go too far in case they need access to something or have any questions.

Both plumbing inspection cost and length can vary widely based on the specifics of a property. For a larger home, historic home, or rental complex, a full plumbing inspection can take a full day. Put aside at least eight hours from the start of the visit to ensure that you'll be available to answer any of the plumber's questions. However, a thorough inspection of the average one-story to two-story home lasts just two to three hours.

While you can perform many routine home maintenance jobs yourself, it’s often a good idea to bring pros in for certain tasks. HVAC maintenance, fireplace and chimney inspections, foundation repairs, and roof inspections and repairs should be handled by professionals who know what to look for and can safely perform repairs. You may also find it helpful to hire a local house cleaning service to help with deep cleaning.

Routine inspections are normal for rental properties. The frequency is up to the landlord. Some property owners only want to check the apartment annually. Others may take a look every three to six months. State laws vary, but more frequent visits may violate a tenant’s “covenant of quiet enjoyment.” This refers to the resident’s right to enjoy relative privacy and freedom from unreasonable disturbances.
