Once your inspector has arrived, I recommended that you accompany him or her on the inspection of the property. This is so you can become familiar with the home and its systems as well as exactly what repairs the inspector recommends and why. You might also want to prepare a list of items that you’ve seen in the home that you feel are cause for concern as well as any questions you may have. The inspection is a great time to find out where the home’s water and gas shutoffs are and where the fuse box is.
WHY HOME INSPECTIONS BY GARY INC.
Home buyers
For the home buyer, my work is a detailed explanation of the condition of the
potential new home to which an emotion tie is already being formed. My home
inspection service to the purchaser is primarily one of education. My goal as the
inspector is to provide you with a better understanding of the physical condition
of the home in order for you to make a well-informed decision. It is also the
inspector's role to keep his findings in perspective for the buyer. After the
inspection is completed, a written report should be prepared for the home buyer,
documenting the results of the inspection. It also represents an excellent
opportunity for the prospective buyer to ask questions about the home or to
discuss potential changes.
Sellers
I will help identify defects and advise of repairs ahead of time. By identifying
possible defects early on, the seller is in a position to handle repairs prior to
listing, making the listing more attractive. Making repairs ahead of time will limit
objections over defects during the negotiations. If the seller elects not to repair
certain defects that turn up in the pre-inspection, they can disclose the defects to
potential buyers in the disclosure documents.
Realtors
A home inspection can be used as a tool to assist in creating confidence in your
client. By referring highly qualified professionals you increase your credibility and
reputation by showing the home buyer that you understand the importance of
this major investment. Real Estate listing agents also benefit in many ways when
they get a home pre-inspected, selling the house faster and moving on to the
next deal. My work is a commitment to the understanding that their reputation is
my responsibility and that a relationship with me reinforces the confidence their
clients have in them.
