What to expect on your home inspection

A home inspection is a crucial part of the home buying process. It’s the best time to really learn about your new home to foresee any issues in the future. It’s also an opportunity to learn how to take care of the mechanics and appliances if it is your first home purchase.

If any items need repair, you can ask the seller to address them before closing or work out a credit amount to address the issue.

Depending on where you live, you may want to have a more thorough inspection such as a sewer line inspection, termite inspection, radon inspection, oil tank sweep and a septic tank inspection.
