"Hired Mike to paint four rooms. 1st two days everything went well. By the third day he fell behind schedule. The last day he rushed through everything and didn't properly finish. He ran out of paint and didn't completely cover the walls. Plus he didn't paint behind the toilet or behind the washer/dryer. Very unprofessional. You pay a professional price and you expect a professional job."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

A home inspection costs around $350, but prices can fall anywhere between $190 and $510, depending on the size of the home, the location, the inspector you choose, and the quality and depth of the inspection you need. In most cases, buyers pay for the home inspection , so you typically won’t need to worry about the cost if you’re a seller. Home inspections may seem unnecessary, but they can save you thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs, so they’re always worthwhile.

You can start inspecting your roof from the ground by looking for unevenness in the roof lines and slopes. Keep an eye out for broken, damaged, or missing shingles, and look for visible gaps where the roofing material meets exterior walls or roof penetrations, like your chimney. If you’re comfortable getting up on your roof and using the necessary safety equipment, you can get a closer look at these areas to identify signs of damage. If you notice any potential issues, it’s best to call in a professional to confirm your findings.

There are a few different types of flues out there, including throat dampers and top-mounted dampers. A throat damper will look like a piece of metal inside the chimney that is either opened or closed, while a top-mounted damper will simply make it so that you can see the daylight streaming in through your chimney from inside if it’s open.

Inspectors working for the seller on pre-listing inspections can present a conflict of interest, so standard home inspections are usually hired and paid for by the buyer. If the buyer has some negotiating power, they might request that the seller cover the cost (by taking it off the asking price), but this varies on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to home appraisal costs and pre-listing inspections, the seller will naturally have to pay, as these are done before the home is left up for sale.

At a minimum, landlords typically perform an apartment home inspection before tenants move in and after they move out. Most lease agreements include a “right to entry” clause allowing for “inspection by the landlord.” They do this to check for damage, identify repairs and maintenance needs, and ensure tenants are following property rules.
