* HOME HERO IS OFFERING WALK THROUGH INSPECTIONS* The unbalanced market is creating a risky situation for buyers who are increasingly forced to waive home inspections in order to win deals. While it is never advisable for buyers to do this, it is sometimes necessary when there is extreme competition for limited inventory as we are seeing today ( there are roughly 28 buyers for every home on the market nationwide right now) Home Hero Inspections LLC is offering a solution by offering Walk Through Inspections to help buyers who would otherwise blindly make offers on the biggest investment of their lifetime. A Walk Through Inspection is not a home inspection and does not conform to the standards of a complete home inspection, however, during a brief walkthrough while you view the home, Home Hero will accompany you and provide a general impression of the property and the condition and age of some of it's major components. The fee for a walk through is generally 1/3 of a complete home inspection. If you'd like to know more about the walk through inspection, please reach out to me at 703 928 6745 or email [email protected]
