Home Inspection
In the past, soaring home sales in the Washington, D.C. metro area have offered up many contracts to sellers without inspections. Today however, buyers are giving critical weight to inspection results as they balance the condition of the property against the high cost of homes in our area. Today's buyers come to the negotiating table already well-informed; they are intent on learning everything they can about the property and suspicious of information not forthcoming from the seller.
A home inspection is about so much more than just paying someone to provide an opinion. It is the sum of all the experience and knowledge that an inspector can apply during the process of studying and assessing the condition of your home. Since there is no such thing as a "perfect" house, even the most well-maintained home generally has defects or problem areas of which even the most conscientious seller may not be entirely aware. A professional home inspector can quickly and efficiently identify problems in a wide range of areas to help the buyer make an informed decision. What could be more important than having this peace of mind when it comes to what is likely the single largest investment of your life?
A home inspection serves three purposes:
1. |
To evaluate the type, quality and approximate age of the various materials, components, and systems within the home.
|
2. |
To verify that all items contained within the sales contract and/or addendum are operational and serviceable.
|
3. |
To familiarize the client with the unique features of the home and provide suggestions on home maintenance, home improvements, and energy conservation. We encourage you to be present and participate fully in the inspection by asking questions and learning about your new home. |
What can we do for you?
At Prime Property Inspectors, we provide what you need – a thorough, detailed and objective analysis of the home's current condition. Once the last detail has been checked, a comprehensive report is provided on-site which documents any defects or deficiencies that may have been found during the inspection. Our inspectors are well-informed, polite and helpful; they will answer your questions and assist you in understanding the findings. Should any questions or concerns arise about the report or the home following the inspection, telephone consultation with the inspector is available at no extra charge to the client.
