Some structures have lasted forever. How will the house you choose stand the test of time?

"A real estate inspection is a visual review of the residence. The more your inspector knows, the better inspection you will get. It is important that the inspector you choose be very well versed in all phases of the inspection process. The more your inspector knows, the more details the inspector is aware of, the more likely the inspector is to find possible defects, deficiencies and/or hazards in the building. Since the inspection is the beginning of the due diligence process, it is important that your inspector find as much of the visible indications of defects and/or hazards as possible so that you can make sure your new home will be functional and safe."

The purchase of a new home should be a fun and exciting time. Unfortunately, no house is perfect. Some things found during the inspection are immediately important. Some may have costly consequences in the future. It is our goal to provide you with the information you need to make an informed choice. We will explain the implications of the items found in the inspection report and their effect on the house, on you, your family and your budget.
