Purchasing a home can be one of the most important and stressful financial investments anyone can make. People looking to buy a home can reasonably protect themselves from a poor financial investment by having a home inspection performed. A home inspection is generally conducted by a certified and/or licensed Home Inspector who provides an independent and objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house.
Home inspections can vary from state to state, but an average home inspection will cover the condition of a home's heating system (central air conditioning system), interior plumbing and electrical systems, the roof, attic and visible insulation, walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors, and the foundation, basement and structural components. The American Society of Home Inspectors publishes a Standards of Practice and code of ethics that outlines what is expected to be evaluated during a home inspection.
There are many reasons why buyers and sellers alike have a home inspection performed. Buyers want to ensure the home they are considering purchasing is not riddled with structural errors which could be costly to fix. Sellers may choose to preempt this by having an inspection conducted before putting their house on the market. If problems or concerns are detected the owner has the option to repair identified flaws before the selling process begins. Even newly built homes should have an inspection done before a purchase agreement is signed as an inspection may identify major builder oversights that could make the house undesirable. Regardless of who has the inspection performed, once completed the seller or buyer can be confidant in what to expect during and after the selling process.
Inspection fees often vary and are dependent on a number of factors such as location, house size and age and optional or required testing of the septic system, well, or a radon test. Pricing may vary from one home inspector to the next, but buyers and sellers should not let the cost factor influence the selection of a qualified home inspector. The lowest-priced inspection may not be the bargain one thinks they are getting. The sense of security and knowledge gained from a quality and thorough inspection is well worth the cost. Let the inspector's qualifications be your guide and take the time to examine their certification, experience, training, and professional affiliations.
During this process everyone involved needs to remember that no house is perfect. If the inspector identifies a single or multiple problems it doesn't mean the buyer should ฝากขายคอนโด give-up and walk away from the sale; it only serves to inform them in advance what to expect from the property. As for the seller, if the inspection identifies problems or concerns, they know they need to address the deficiencies before opening their doors to potential buyers or find a buyer who is looking for a "fixer-upper" and settle for less money than they may have originally wanted.
