Buying a home is a major financial decision that is often made after having spent very little time on the property itself. A home inspection performed by a competent and licensed inspector will help you enter the negotiation process with eyes wide open, offering you added reassurance that the choice you are making is a sound one, or alerting you to underlying problems that could cost you significant money in both the short and long-run. Your Realtor can suggest reputable home inspection companies for you to consider and will ensure the appropriate clause is entered into your contract. Whether you are buying a single family home, or a condo, an inspection will give you peace of mind, and help protect your investment.
