A property inspection is a thorough examination of a property's condition, typically conducted by a qualified inspector. It aims to identify any issues or potential problems with the property.

Property inspections help buyers and sellers understand the condition of a property. For buyers, it can uncover potential issues before purchasing, and for sellers, it allows them to address concerns before listing or negotiate on price accordingly.

Generally, the buyer, buyer's representative, or buyer's agent arranges and pays for the property inspection. However, the seller might also choose to conduct a pre-listing inspection to address issues before putting the property on the market.

Inspectors evaluate various aspects of a property, including its structural integrity, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, insulation, and more. They aim to identify any safety issues or necessary repairs.

The duration can vary depending on the size and condition of the property. On average, inspections take a few hours, but larger or more complex properties may take longer.

If issues are identified, buyers can negotiate with the seller to address them before the sale. Sellers may choose to make repairs or adjust the sale price accordingly.

While inspectors are thorough, they will not uncover every potential issue. Due to limitations, some problems like those hidden behind walls, restrictions due to limited access, or issues that aren't visually apparent at the time of inspection, may not be discovered until after the purchase.

Yes, especially for new construction homes, it's advisable to have an independent third-party inspection from an unbiased inspector. New homes can have construction defects or issues that may not be apparent during a casual walkthrough.  Here at Honorable Inspections, we always inspect your property as our own!

For buyers interested in a pre-existing home, it's typically done once during the purchasing process. It is recommended to have an unbiased inspector perform multiple inspections (Phase I: Pre-Pour, Phase II: Pre-Drywall, & Phase III: Final Inspection) when building new construction.  Homeowners should also consider periodic inspections for maintenance purposes every 5-7 years.
