What exactly is a home inspection?
A home inspection is a comprehensive visual inspection by a licensed professional home inspector. The interior and exterior of the home is inspected - from the foundation to the rooftop.

A detailed, written report will be prepared for you that documents the existing condition of the home's structural elements, mechanical systems, roof surfaces and other related components.

 
Who is a home inspector?
Home inspectors are generalists with a broad knowledge of construction methods, building materials, HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems and related structual components. The home inspector performs
a visual inspection and reports any major deficiencies and items affecting the habitability of the property.
A professional home inspector must be well versed in all aspects of residential construction and possess good communication skills.
