A
home inspection is an objective examination
of the condition of the visible and accessible
components of a home. Homebuyers now entering
the marketplace view inspections as a way
to gain valuable information about the biggest
purchase of their lifetime. It helps them
to determine whether there are any major
defects or system inadequacies before they
buy, and it minimizes any unpleasant surprises
or significant financial burdens later on.
Home inspectors do not point out every
small problem or defect in a home. Minor
or cosmetic flaws, for example, should be
apparent without the aid of a professional.
The inspection also should not be confused
with an appraisal, a municipal code inspection,
or a guarantee of any kind.
The home inspector's service is primarily
one of education. The goal of the inspector
is to provide buyers with a better understanding
of the physical condition of their prospective
home, giving them peace of mind and helping
them make smart decisions.
