No Surprises...
When buying or selling something as complex as a residential property, comprised of systems that operate both independantly as well as in harmony with each other, there are many things that have gone and will go "wrong".
The degree and effectiveness of home maintenance by previous owners can be a significant contributor to issues and "opportunities" in older homes.
Even the technology at the time of construction has been in constant change due to improvements. Different building code requirements and the unique needs of current high tech components offer a challenge to even the most diligent and tech-savy home owner.
When an independant overview of a residence is undertaken by a third party such as a home inspection professional, knowledge of imminent defects and those that have yet to present themselves, is useful to both seller and buyer.
Pricing negotiations due to inspection findings can lead to an open and fair transaction - one that is very likely one of the biggest of your lifetime.
Honest and knowledgeable inspections...no surprises!
