Springfield MA Home Inspectors

Jim Mushinsky: Real Estate Trainer in Framingham, MA

A home buyer in Springfield MA should receive a brochure, Home Inspectors Facts for Consumers Sheet, at the time of the signing of the first written contract to purchase.

Home CheckA standard Massachusetts home inspection is a visual examination of the physical structure and major interior systems of a residential building consisting of one to four dwelling units. It should be understood that there are certain risks inherent in the purchase of property and a home inspection is inherently limited in its scope and depth. The information gained from home inspection conforming to the Massachusetts Home Inspector Standards of Practice may reduce some of those risks, but the home inspection is not intended to provide the client with protection from all of the risks involved.

Visit the Springfield MA Home Inspectors web page to locate home inspectors providing home inspection services in Springfield MA.
