Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, you may still qualify for a home insurance policy if your property doesn't pass an inspection. Your insurer may ask you to resolve certain issues in this situation. Other options are getting a quote from a different company or applying for coverage through your state's Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR) Plan.

If your home has a forced-air HVAC system, it will also have HVAC duct parts. Air ducts are connected to an HVAC unit and deliver heated or cooled air to each room; your heating and AC wouldn’t work without ductwork.

However, if your house has a boiler or radiator system for heating and doesn’t have central AC, you probably don’t have ductwork installed.

Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.

Pipes should be inspected regularly so you can catch any red flags early on. Common issues that you might run into with your pipes include clogs, damage like cracks and leaks, corrosion, or other signs of wear. When you stay on top of an inspection schedule, you'll avoid costly problems like burst pipes.

For real estate transactions in most states, it is up to the buyer to pay for a home inspector to conduct a home inspection. With the buyer footing the bill, it allows them to choose an inspector they trust to conduct the inspection and review the report themselves to note any major and minor issues.
