Beyond the fluff and beauty of the home there are some important things you need to know.

Behind that jargon and piles of paper work there can be issues that can be an easy fix or not quite so easy to fix.

If there is a major problem would you not want to know?

A home inspection will help sort out what is important beyond the cosmetic part of the home.

A simple framework for determining whether you purchase or keep looking.

A few simple words that can best describe the Inspection Report. It is a structural and mechanical inspection of the home you are about to buy.

This Inspection Report Will:

1. Explain

2. Define

3. Describe

4. Give Details

You may receive a report that is 10-20 pages in length. In essence it will Explain, Define, Describe, and give Details with photos for items that may need further evaluation.

What you do with this Inspection Report is up to you. Work with your realtor to address some of the items that may need further evaluation. Please remember this is a report on the structural and mechanical aspects of the property. In most cases the fix is simple. This Inspection Report will make you aware if items that are structural or mechanical in nature that may need attention. It is not cosmetic, it is Structural & Mechanical.

Please hire an inspector to look beyond the fluff. In most cases you will buy, move in and enjoy your new home for many years. You want to be "aware" the "entire" house that you are about to buy is exactly what you see. Look beyond the cosmetic.

The outward appearance is what brought you to the home. My job as the inspector is make sure you get what you pay for.
