What is a Pre Purchase Home Inspection?
A pre-purchase home inspection is a thorough examination of a property’s condition. It’s highly recommended, though not mandatory, for obtaining a mortgage and selling or purchasing a property. Licensed inspectors visually assess accessible areas inside and outside the home, including walls, ceilings, floors, foundation, roof, and common areas in condominiums.
The inspection report details observations on the property’s condition, potential defects, necessary repairs, water infiltration, mold presence, and suspicious odors. It will also include photos for reference.

What is a Pre Sale Inspection?
Pre purchase and pre sale inspections serve opposite purposes in a real estate deal. A buyer initiates a pre purchase inspection to assess a property’s condition before buying, uncovering potential problems and wielding them for negotiation or to walk away. The buyer shoulders this cost. Conversely, a pre-sale inspection is initiated by the seller before listing. It helps identify issues that need fixing, set a realistic asking price, and potentially attract buyers faster by showcasing the property’s condition. The seller foots the bill for this proactive approach.

Benefits of a Pre Purchase or Pre Sale Inspection:

- Save money: Uncover hidden problems before closing, potentially saving you from costly repairs down the road.
- Informed decision-making: Our detailed report empowers you to make a well-informed investment in your future home.
Stronger bargaining position: An inspection report can strengthen your negotiating position when discussing repairs with the seller.
