Should I attend the inspection?
It is not necessary for you to attend the inspection, but if you do, we recommend allowing our inspectors uninterrupted time to conduct the inspection first and asking any questions you may have at the end of the inspection. This speeds up the inspection process for you the customer, the real estate agent & our dedicated inspectors.
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
