Do You Know the Home You're Buying?
The Home Inspectors® home inspection

For buyers, sellers and homeonwners

Whether your property is:
     a single family dwelling
     a townhome or condominium
     a loft space
     a foreclosure property
     a multi-unit building


The Home Inspectors gives you a professional, objective evaluation of the current condition of a home you may purchase or already own.   Our expertise is even more sought after with buyers looking at foreclosure properties.  Allow our decades of experience to help you fine tune your search for a foreclosed property.

Home buyers request pre-purchase inspections that point out property defects and merits.

Home sellers are offered an inspection that recommends necessary repairs to be made before a home is listed for sale.

Present homeowners use our unbiased, solid advice as a guide to upgrading their home.


The key is experience
The Home Inspectors was founded on 25 years of  residential remodeling experience.  A home inspector uses the five senses to compile clues about a property's condition.  We know the major systems of a house, hands on, inside and out.  Only a home inspector who has extensive time in the field can make an educated judgement on what signal major or minor problems.


Who Needs a Home Inspection & Why?

Prospective Buyers:
The Pre-Purchase Inspection

Is the disclosure given to you by the seller 100% accurate?  Find Out!  Discovery of any defects may warrant a renegotiation.  Let The Home Inspectors decide.  The Home Inspectors will provide you with an evaluation of defects and needed repairs.  This same examination can be of value for homes under construction where we create a list of what needs to be done before completion.

 

For Sellers:
The Pre-Listing Inspection

Before listing your home, our Property Analysis Report can help evaluate its condition.  This enables essential repairs and cosmetic touch-ups to be made before buyers view your home.  You'll sell your property faster and at a better price.

 

For Homeowners:
Current-Owner Inspection

Often the people who live in a house are so close to it they can't see its problems.  We help you decide on the repairs and renovation by giving you solid, unbiased advice.  If you're already exhausted by conflicting sales pitches, call us.  We'll recommend the steps to take in order to get the job done right.
