WHY EVERY BUYER NEEDS A HOME INSPECTION   Why You, as a Buyer, Need a Home Inspection A home inspection gives you more detailed information to help you make a wise decision. In a home inspection, a qualified inspector takes an in-depth, unbiased look at your potential new home to: Evaluate the physical condition: structure, construction, and mechanical systems. Identify items that impact the habitability of the home that will need to be repaired or replaced. Estimate the remaining useful life of major systems, equipment, structure, and finishes. What Goes Into a Home Inspection A home inspection gives you an impartial, physical evaluation of the overall condition of the home and items that need to be repaired or replaced. The inspection gives a detailed report on the condition of the structural components, exterior, roofing, plumbing, electrical, heating, insulation and ventilation, air conditioning, and interiors. Be an Informed Buyer It is your responsibility to be an informed buyer. Be sure that what you buy is satisfactory in every aspect. You have the right to carefully examine your potential new home with a qualified home inspector. You may arrange to do so before signing your contract, or may do so after signing the contract as long as your contract states that the sale of the home depends on the inspection.
