What Home Inspectors Do

Home inspectors perform a unique and valuable service. A professional home inspector will inspect your home utilizing professionally accepted methods and standards to accurately report the condition of the physical components and structures of the subject home.

Home inspectors do not judge or evaluate the home for cost or value but do report objectively in writing the specific condition of the subject home and the subsequent physical systems involved.

Independent and Professional Evaluation

A home inspection is an independent, unbiased review and report on a home's systems, components, and their condition. Consumers and real estate professionals should expect no less than full professionalism, education, competence, credentials, knowledge, and courtesy.

What to Expect During the Inspection

A detailed home inspection usually takes two to three hours or longer, depending on the home's age and square footage. We recommend that you be present at your home inspection so that you can ask your inspector any questions and look at any areas needing maintenance or repair.
