Home inspections are an important part of the home-buying process. Unfortunately, there can be a lot of uncertainty when it comes time to get a home inspection, which is why the experts at Inspecticore have compiled a list of commonly asked questions.
Do I Really Need a Home Inspection?
Buying a home may be the largest single investment you will ever make. It’s absolutely crucial to identify any major repairs or builder oversights before you decide to buy it. The more information about your property you have, the better.

Do I Need to Be Home?
It is not required that you are home for the inspection, although it is highly recommended. It can be beneficial for you to ask questions and learn more about the inspection report during this time. The average home inspection takes about two to three hours.
Who Pays for the Inspection?
Not only is the home buyer in charge of selecting the inspector, but in almost all cases, the buyer is responsible for the fee. With Inspecticore, the fee is due at the time of inspection.
