"Mr. Watkins was very thorough doing the inspection of a manufactured home for me. He was very personable and answered a lot of questions for me about the property. His rate is very reasonable and I received the report via email that night. I would highly recommend Watkins Home Inspection."

"I contracted Mike from USA Building Inspections to inspect the roof on a house I'm in the process of buying. Mike was experienced, personable, and professional. He took the time to explain his findings and wrote a report in a timely matter. In my case the inspection cleared up some concerns I had, and now I am confident to go ahead with my purchase."

"We needed an appraisal of an atypical 1950s home on the outskirts of Ann Arbor and contacted Todd because of his good reviews. He was prompt, courteous and produced a superb appraisal quickly for a fair price. Sincere praise for a job very well done."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, in most cases, you can negotiate and make a counteroffer after a home inspection. If the inspection reveals issues with the property, you can use these findings as leverage to reduce the purchase price. Your counteroffer should account for the estimated cost of necessary repairs, and it's important to find a reasonable balance to increase the chances of the seller accepting. The main exception is if you waived the home inspection contingency to make your offer more appealing. In that situation, while you can still have an inspection done for your own information, you have no contractual recourse to make a counteroffer based on the results.

Generally, foundation cracks and repair are not covered by standard homeowners insurance policies. This type of damage is often considered normal wear and tear or a result of poor maintenance, which is the homeowner's responsibility. For example, damage caused by settling, shifting soil, or drainage issues is typically excluded.

However, there are exceptions. Coverage may apply if the foundation damage is a direct result of a covered peril, such as a house fire, a burst pipe, vandalism, or a vehicle accident. Coverage for natural disasters like earthquakes and floods often requires a separate, specific policy or add-on.

In some cases, a home inspector tests the indoor air quality if properly certified. Most of the time, however, they’ll outsource the work to a professional air quality consultant. Testing indoor air for pollutants requires several certifications and a suite of specialized tools. Many HVAC and home inspection pros have this certification.

Self-management is possible but requires significant time investment and an understanding of legal and operational responsibilities associated with property maintenance.

Waiving a home inspection could be beneficial if you’re buying a home in a hot location where the seller has many other offers to consider, especially if other buyers are willing to waive the inspection. However, it’s not usually a good idea to waive an inspection, even on new construction. Inspections can identify problems that could cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, so a formal inspection is always worthwhile. If you’re having a new home built, a pre-drywall inspection is often the most valuable, but a final inspection before you close is also a good idea.
