Buyer’s Inspection

A buyer’s home inspection is a crucial step when purchasing a home or property. It is an expert evaluation of the property’s condition and details any potential issues that could become costly down the line. The inspector looks at the structure, exterior, insulation, electrical components, plumbing systems, and other major elements throughout the property. Having a knowledgeable evaluation can help inform buyers upfront of any potential problems, so they can plan for them or consider them during negotiations with the seller. A home inspection can also confirm that everything functions correctly so essential repairs don’t come as a surprise down the road.

Pre-Listing/Seller’s Inspection

A pre-listing inspection is an excellent way for home sellers to prepare their property for buyers. It can help determine any potential issues that could arise during a buyer’s inspection, which can help protect against loss of time and money. By conducting a detailed inspection before listing your house on the market, you can gain peace of mind knowing that any problems have been identified and addressed. This will give buyers confidence in your home and make it more attractive to potential buyers interested in making an offer.

Radon Testing

Home radon testing is essential to safeguarding your family’s health. Radon is a naturally occurring gas and can be found in all parts of the country, inside and outside our homes. Testing your home for elevated levels of this gas helps protect against long-term exposure that can potentially cause severe health consequences. Radon has been linked to various forms of cancer, including lung cancer, and can even be deadly.
