Other Inspection Services

Pre-Purchase Inspection
When buying real estate you need to know exactly what you’re getting into ahead of time. A Pre-Purchase Inspection will identify the major items that may influence your buying decision. We’ll report on existing or potential problem conditions, safety issues, prioritize items in need of attention or further investigation, and give you a lot of detailed information on the overall condition of the property.
We don’t give ‘Pass’ or ‘Failing’ grades on our Pre-Purchase inspection reports because we know that any building problem can be fixed; it just depends on your time, resources, and interest in doing so. Our job is to give you the vital technical information you need, delivered in an honest, straightforward, and objective manner, so you can confidently make the best decision for your unique circumstances.
Pre-Listing or Pre-Sale Inspection
This information guides the repair or maintenance projects you want completed prior to putting it on the market. It also allows you to reflect any deficiencies in the listing price, rather than having to renegotiate later when the issues are discovered. A Pre-Listing Inspection report can make your home sell faster and for a better price!
New Construction inspection
This inspection identifies numerous items that likely will not be noticed by the buyer’s untrained eye during the typical “deficiency walk-through” prior to occupancy. Using an extensive inspection checklist our inspector can spot defects, oversights, incomplete work, and building code violations. In addition to conducting a full inspection, we prepare a list of deficiencies and defects for the builder to complete or repair.Some builders are resistant to the idea of a third-party inspection, and since they still own the property, they can veto who attends the walk-through. We recommend you check the builder’s policy in advance and consider including a clause in the offer allowing a home inspector to attend the final walk-through.
2-5-10 Year Warranty Inspection
Owner Builders are not required to provide warranty insurance for their new home, however they must provide prospective purchasers with a Disclosure Notice stating that the home is not protected by 2-5-10 coverage. An owner builder has a statutory obligation to future owners that is equal to the minimum standards for home warranty insurance. A professional inspection will document deficiencies and can speed up the repair process while Warranty coverage is in place or, in the event of a dispute about the builder’s statutory obligation to correct defects. Our understanding of buildings and how they age provide vital information you need to protect your new home.
Pre-Purchase Condominium
After-Purchase Inspection
This inspection gives you the information you need to prioritize maintenance, repair and renovation plans, and can include a discussion of the potential costs involved. An inspection at any time during the course of ownership will help you prepare for upcoming improvements and could save you thousands of dollars in unanticipated expenses. A home inspection is a valuable planning tool whether you’re thinking about updating your new home or had to forego a Pre- Purchase Inspection to get your offer accepted.
Pre and Post Lease Inspection
Our Pre-Lease Inspection provides detailed information on the condition of the property prior to the commencement of a residential lease. Both tenants and landlords will benefit by being aware of the issues so that responsibility can be determined before a lease is signed.
A Post-Lease Inspection can compare findings and reduce the chance of a dispute or costly repairs at the end of the lease term.
Pre and Post-Lease Inspection reports include photographs and detailed descriptions of the building, the facilities and any existing deficiencies.
Limited or Problem Investigation
For these kinds of investigations, an experienced building inspector with a background in construction is your best bet to identify the cause or condition and recommend an effective course of action. Our inspectors’ specialized knowledge will provide the solutions to most building problems. Keep in mind, however, that any inspection is limited to what can be seen without doing destructive testing.
