Jim is a wealth of knowledge and has a lot of experience. Jim has a unique ability to share a lot of information in a helpful manner that helps home buyers have all the information they need, and doesn't share the information in a scary manner. I have been on numerous inspections with Jim. I always learn a lot, and everyone always has a pleasant time. If you select Jim as your home inspector you will be happy with your decision. Jim's rates might not be the least expensive, but, you will learn more about your home, and sleep better with fewer surprises after closing.

Reis was punctual, professional, informative, and thorough during the inspection. I received a 33 page report with color photos the following day. The information she provided in the report was valuable and helped inform us of many costly issues that our previous home inspector would've overlooked. We had prior knowledge of this property since we had been renting the home for almost two years. Not only did Reis provide a comprehensive home inspection report, she also fixed the gas fireplace and garage door during her inspection. Truly went above and beyond in my opinion. You get what you pay for and you shouldn't pick a less expensive option when it comes to hiring a home inspector when you're looking to purchase a home. In the end, the seller wasn't willing to fix safety issues involving electrical and structural, so we decided not to purchase the home.

"Our realtor recommended Para home services when we bought our house, so we tried them out. Our team, Zoe and Matt were great, they listened to all my ramblings and half baked suspicions about what things were wrong with the house and set to work. On top of a thorough maintenance pass -cleaning dryer vents and refrigerator compressors, they also addressed a random list of things like a loose sink, and faulty bath faucet, a couple of dead outlets and misbehaving light switches but also troublshot our mysterious radiant floor system, got it all working and explained how it was set up. I learnt a lot about the house and ultimately have a greater peace of mind. I will be signing up for a membership."

FAQs for home inspection projects in Burien, WA
It’s important to get a home inspection when buying a home because home inspectors are trained to examine the various aspects of a home to determine that everything is in good condition and find unseen problems that current homeowners need to fix before the home sale takes place. Although home inspections are not legally required, a thorough inspection can help you decide if you want to purchase a home. That’s why it’s essential to keep a home inspection contingency so that you have the option to walk away from the sale if the home inspection reveals expensive issues.
A home inspection typically includes the home inspector conducting a thorough visual examination of essential home structures and mechanical components. Afterward, the inspector will provide a home inspection report that relays descriptions of damage or other findings for the homeowner to review.
Home inspectors will examine the following home areas and features:
Plumbing
Electrical
Foundations
Roof
Windows and doors
Overall condition of interior and exterior
HVAC systems
Attics
Basements or crawl spaces
Major built-in appliances
Typically, a licensed and certified local home inspector conducts home inspections. Real estate agents often work closely with trusted home inspectors. Licensing requirements vary from state to state for home inspectors, but they must have local certification and valid insurance. Many licensed home inspectors belong to professional associations like the American Society of Home Inspectors.
Typically, the home buyer pays for the inspection by hiring a home inspector. This method helps you make an informed decision about a home’s condition before purchasing it. Home sellers can also conduct their own home inspection to ensure that they are getting the best price for their home and property.
On average, home inspections cost about $350, ranging from $200 to $500, depending on the home’s size, age, and location, plus any specialty inspections required. Additional cost factors include testing for asbestos or conducting thermal imaging tests to find infestations, checking energy efficiency, and looking for structural or electrical problems. If your home is more than 2,000 square feet, you can expect to pay $400 or more.
