What Is A Home Inspection?

A Home Inspection is a snapshot in time that represents the condition of the home on the day and time of the inspection. It is not meant to predict the future condition of the home or its components.
A home is the biggest purchase most people will ever make, and a home inspection is always recommended before buying a home. It’s important to realize the condition of your investment.
While some little quirks may be nothing to worry about, there may be more serious issues that only a professional home inspector can assess.
