Buying or Selling a house?
 | Buying a home is the most stressful and largest transaction that you are likely to make in your life. You shopped around and found the best house you could find. You are planning to live in this house with your family for a long time. Now is the time (before you close the deal) to hire a professional to make sure you are not buying into a "money pit." You probably did not look at the house objectively or examine it close enough and your brother in law does not have the training, experience or equipment to properly evaluate the condition of the house (in most cases). Buyers Quick Checklist (take this checklist with you to your next house viewing and document any defects) | ||||||
| Selling your house has become increasingly more difficult in this "buyers market" and many deals can be killed at the last moment through the discovery of a serious defect with one of the houses components like the roof or foundation. Your potential buyers will likely hire an inspector to go over the house prior to closing. If their inspector finds something major, they will more than likely do one of three things:

Money Back Guarantee
Don't let your Real Estate agent steer you in the wrong direction. Even though they claim to be working for you, they have a vested interest in getting the deal done. Let's face it, they don't get paid until the house closes. If they recommend an Inspector, and claim that they have worked with them before with good results, it probably means that "their" Inspector gives good reports for continued work. I am an independent Inspector. I will work only for you. I am not afraid to kill a real estate deal if it could cost you money down the road. My report will be completely un-biased and honest.
Bottom line -- Don't trust anyone that stands to gain financially from you signing the papers to purchase a house. Get your own hired gun to work for you that will not benefit from the purchase.
On top of the fact that my prices are better than anyone else's, I offer a money back guarantee. If I don't uncover at least $200.00 in money saving defects in the house you are looking to purchase, you get your money back! Plain and simple...
Why you need a Home Inspection
Without a doubt, buying or selling a home is the largest transaction that you will ever enter into. With this in mind, you want to get the best value for your hard earned money that you can possibly get. A professional Home Inspection won't be able to tell you if the house you are interested in is a good deal or not. A Home Inspection will not condemn the house that you are selling. Home Inspectors are not "deal killers" or doomsayers. Rather, an experienced Home Inspector will provide the information that you will need from an objective 3rd party point of view that will help buyers, sellers and Real Estate agents to have a full understanding of the homes condition.
A professionally trained home inspector, like myself, will assist in maintaining the health of your home and a property inspection makes home maintenance easy by catching small problems before they become big surprises.

In just a few hours you'll have a detailed report of the condition of your home so that you can plan for needed repairs and upgrades when it’s time to make them. When purchasing a home, many home buyers have saved literally thousands of dollars through information provided by the home inspector. Home owners who have owned their homes for several years can even benefit from a home inspector's knowledge of maintenance and repairs, and experience to avert potential problems. In many areas where disasters have occurred, homeowners have relied on inspectors to help them identify any damage resulting from storms, earthquakes, etc.
Buying a home could be the largest single investment you will ever make. To minimize unpleasant surprises and unexpected difficulties, you’ll want to learn as much as you can about the newly constructed or existing house before you buy it. A home inspection may identify the need for major repairs or builder oversights, as well as the need for maintenance to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will know more about the house, which will allow you to make decisions with confidence.
If you already are a homeowner, a home inspection can identify problems in the making and suggest preventive measures that might help you avoid costly future repairs.
If you are planning to sell your home, a home inspection can give you the opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.
Even the most experienced homeowner lacks the knowledge and expertise of a professional home inspector. An inspector is familiar with the elements of home construction, proper installation, maintenance and home safety. He or she knows how the home’s systems and components are intended to function together, as well as why they fail.
Above all, most buyers find it difficult to remain completely objective and unemotional about the house they really want, and this may have an effect on their judgment. For accurate information, it is best to obtain an impartial, third-party opinion by a professional in the field of home inspection.
