Why Should Buyers Have A Home Inspection?

No one wants to move into a newly-purchased home only to be surprised by defects that take time and money to repair. Many defects are hidden or are not discernible to anyone but an experienced home inspector. Home inspections typically take from 1-1/2 to 4 hours, depending on the size, age and condition of the home. This detailed scrutiny is not usually undertaken by homeowners -- they do not have the training or the time to perform such inspections themselves. Furthermore, the findings of a home inspection are better received by the seller of the home if the inspection is performed by a reputable third party.
