🏠What Is a Home Inspection?
A home inspection is a professional, non-invasive evaluation of a property's major systems and components. This includes the roof, foundation, electrical system, plumbing, HVAC, attic, insulation, and much more. The goal? To uncover hidden issues that could lead to expensive repairs down the road.
🔍 Why It Matters
Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you'll ever make. A thorough inspection gives you:
- Peace of mind: Know what you’re getting into before signing.
- Negotiating power: Use the report to request repairs or adjust the sale price.
- Clarity: Understand the true condition of the property—not just what looks good on the surface.
