A clearer picture of the property
The inspection covers accessible structure, roof, exterior, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and interior components. Observations connect a condition to its location and practical significance. A home does not receive a pass or fail; the report gives you information for your decision.
Use your inspection window well
Arrange access early in your contingency period. Share the seller’s disclosures, previous reports and specific concerns before the visit. Leave time for any recommended specialist evaluation and repair estimates; an inspection is only one part of your due diligence.
What to bring to the walkthrough
Bring questions about stains, cracks, recent improvements, maintenance records and any rooms you could not access during showings. Attend the closing walkthrough when possible. Read the complete report, including access limitations, rather than relying on a verbal summary.
