Buying a home is probably the biggest investment of your life. It is best to make a wise decision based on all the facts in order to avoid expensive repairs and/or conflict during the transfer process. After an inspection, you will know much more about the property you wish to buy, and you can confidently make a decision.
As a home owner, a home inspection may identify problems upfront and preventive measures can be advised to avoid costly future repairs and keep the home well maintained.
Sellers of properties may also choose to have a home inspection before placing the home on the market to have a better understanding of conditions which the buyer's inspector may point out. This gives the seller an opportunity to make repairs before hand to present the home in a better selling condition.
Advantages of a home inspection include:
Knowledge: Understanding in detail what you are buying
Peace of mind: Providing an informed buying decision
Savings: Revealing the need for repairs or maintenance issues before you buy
Fewer surprises: Reducing the number of problems you may discover after you move in
