Why get a home inspection?
There are multiple reasons why getting a home inspection is a smart move for home buyers. First, it’s impossible to assess the condition of a home and its major systems in just a simple walkthrough. A professional home inspector can take a more detailed look at the house you’re planning to buy and raise a red flag for any potential health and safety issues, alongside any expensive repairs that might be on the horizon.
In addition to peace of mind, most buyers opt to have an inspection done alongside a home inspection contingency. With a home inspection contingency in place, as long as stipulated in the purchase agreement, you can walk away from the deal without losing your earnest money deposit, based on any issues uncovered during the inspection.
