what is a home inspection?
Many new homebuyers don't realize the importance of a home inspection because it's something most do not discuss or consider until they've found a home that they want to close on. It's an extra expense that can save you thousands in the future because we examine the structure and major systems of the property like the roof, foundation, electrical, plumbing, etc. This will allow the buyer to plan and/or negotiate the best deal.You want to know as much as you can about what is happening in the home, and while a Home Inspection is a visual-only inspection, we are professionals who have a keen eye and knowledge that can support less stress during the home buying process.Inspections are also a part of the maintenance of your home even after you close. Homeowners move in and then forget to have at least a bi-annual inspection to make sure you aren't surprised by the breakdown of systems. Homes naturally have wear and tear that you may miss because life is happening, but it's important to budget and have a scheduled plan to have your home inspected once a year or once every other year so, if needed, you can save for upcoming maintenance and repairs.
Reports you can trust
What A report Looks Like
Reports should be more than a snapshot of the home you want to buy. Reports should be detailed, have photos, and share details about all systems materials, and conditions, and include photos. Aside from being used for negotiations, your report will be a point of reference for you if you do move forward with the purchase. Your report should let you know the purpose of the system and clearly state if systems need Maintenance, if there's a recommendation, or if there is a hazard or deficiency. We suggest you take the time to fully read through your report and discuss the next steps with your real estate agent and work together to close stress-free!* To the right and below are samples of Steel City Home Inspections past reports so you know what to expect.
