FAQs
How does a home inspection work?
The home buyer will find a home inspector, either
from their own research or a list provided by their real estate agent. The inspector and
agent will determine the best time for the inspection after the buyers and sellers agents
confer.
What is the risk if I don’t get a home inspection?
Usually the home inspection does not uncover a huge problem, but sometimes there are large issues that might be noted in a home inspection. As a buyer you want all the information possible before making the largest financial decision of your life.
Can I choose my own inspector?
Yes, the home inspector works for the buyer, not the agent. Many agents have lists of inspectors that their clients have used before. It is completely up to the buyer to decide which inspector to use.
What are the benefits of getting a home inspection?
Almost every inspection will turn up deficiencies in the house. This is information that your agent can use to request repair or negotiate a better deal.
What does a home inspector look for?
The home inspector will the foundation and structure including the attic and crawl space, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, appliances and some other items such as sprinklers or out buildings. Some inspections may have add on items that cost extra, depending on the inspector, including termite report, pools, drain camera, slab level and more. If the home is a pier and beam, that will cost extra but is not likely an optional fee.
What does not get inspected?
A home inspection does not include countertop appliances, anything that is not readily visible and other items that are indicated in the agreement. The agreement should be read carefully to fully understand what inspectors do not check. For example, if an electrical breaker or water valve is turned off, the inspector will not turn those on. They may be off for a reason.
Why do I need a home inspection?
The more information your agent has the better off you are in negotiating a better deal.
Can I be there for the home inspection?
Most inspectors prefer that the client is not there for the inspection. Having the client present can divide attention causing the inspector to miss things. Most inspectors recommend the buyer come near the end of the inspection to review the preliminary report.
How long will the inspection take?
Most inspections take about three hours. Newer or smaller homes may take a little less time. Larger and older homes can take as long as four hours.
How much does a home inspection cost?
The cost of a home inspection can vary a great deal between inspectors and houses. Home inspectors all have different pricing philosophies and the cost of the inspection can vary depending on the age and size of the house. Most home inspections fall in a range from $300 – $700.
What happens if the house I want to buy fails the inspection?
There is no pass or fail on a home inspection. Many items are usually noted as deficient on a home inspection. Some are easy to fix and others may be expensive or difficult.
Are all of the deficiencies required to be fixed?
No, neither the buyer nor seller are required to fix anything. That is part of the negotiation process. Some deficiencies are because we do things differently now than we did at the time of construction. The inspector may note safety concerns such as missing smoke detectors or bedroom windows that do not open.
What is the report like and when will I get it?
The home inspection report is a written report that includes photos and is generally provided by email or a link. The inspector is required to provide the report within three days after payment. Most inspectors do not take three days to complete the report. A to Zebra Home Inspections makes it a point to complete the report the night of the home inspection unless the client is previously notified.
