What is a Home inspection?

A home inspection is a visual inspection of the structure and components of a home to find items that are not performing correctly or items that are unsafe. If a problem or a symptom of a problem is found, the home inspector will include a description of the problem in a written report and may recommend further evaluation.

Why is a home inspection important?

For most of us, purchasing a home is the biggest investment we will ever make.  The process of purchasing a home is both rewarding and often times stressful.  Dealing with contract negotiations, mortgage loans, and mountains of paperwork can be quite overwhelming.  The last thing a home buyer needs to worry about is an unforeseen problem with his or her investment.  This is why taking the time and investing in a professional home inspection with Preferred Property Inspection, is so important. 

Every home has its secrets.  A thorough home inspection will not only reveal these secrets, but provide the home buyer with a degree of confidence in the purchase.  

A home inspection by Preferred Property Inspection will help to justify the selling price of the home and, in fact, can be a large factor in negotiations.

Our professional inspector will alert the buyer to any safety concerns or potential threats with the property.
