Why is a home inspection important for new construction? 🏡 🔨

Human Error: Builders are on tight deadlines and use many subcontractors. Mistakes like unconnected ducts, poor insulation, or miswired outlets are common even in brand-new homes.

Municipal Inspectors aren’t enough: City or county inspectors only check that a home meets minimum building codes and focus heavily on structural milestones, not the fine details or operational functionality.

A recent home inspection for my clients’ new home construction revealed the following:
~split and cracked floor joists
~improperly installed steel beam support
~damaged and missing shingles
~electrical outlets with no power
~gaps sewer ejector pit seal 🤢
~leaking pipe 💧
~possible mold in basement 😷

Protect your investment! 💰

Shout out to Pillar to Post Rogers Team for conducting a very thorough home inspection!

Did you know that uncluttered homes typically sell for 8-15% more and 40-60% faster?

Why?

Because decluttering makes spaces feel larger, cleaner and allows buyers to envision themselves living there.

A clean, uncluttered space creates a positive first appearance and suggests good overall property maintenance.
