I know buying a new home
is the biggest investment you'll ever make.
Although the process is very exciting it quickly
becomes overwhelming. The home you have selected
may appear to be just what you are looking for,
how can you be sure there aren't serious unknown
defects which can make your investment very
costly. Having your new home
professionally inspected
by a
Residential Home Inspector
can save you thousands of dollars.
I strongly encourage my clients to accompany the
home inspection process. You should feel free to
ask any questions you may have during the home
inspection. I will point out problems and
explain them to you. I will also show you the
good points of the home. Plus, I will explain
what routine maintenance is needed to keep the
house in top condition. This will help you to
get the most benefit from the inspection and
gain the most understanding of the systems that
make up your home, and how to maintain it.
I generate easy-to-read comprehensive inspection
reports. Everything identified during the home
inspection will be included in the report with
narrative descriptions, pictures and diagrams.
Using the information in the home inspection
report, you will be able to make an informed
decision.
My Promise to You
Choosing the right home
inspector can be difficult.
Unlike most professionals, you probably will not
get to
meet me
until after you hire me. Furthermore, different
inspectors have varying qualifications,
equipment, experience, reporting methods, and
yes, different pricing. One thing for sure is
that a home inspection requires work, a lot of
work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends
heavily on the individual inspector’s own
effort. If you honor me by permitting me to
inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will
give you my very best effort. This I promise
you.
