A home inspection is a non-invasive, visual examination of the accessible areas of a residential property performed for a fee, which is designed to identify defects within specific systems and components.

The home inspection is based on the observations made on the date of the inspection, and not a prediction of future conditions. The home inspection will not reveal every issue that exists or that ever could exist, but only those material defects observed on the date of the inspection.

For an exhaustive list of what does and does not get inspected please review the Standards of Practice followed by all inspectors who are certified by the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors.

How Long Does an Inspection Take

A home inspection will typically take two hours to complete, however it may take more or less time depending on the complexity and size of the property. We highly encourage you to join the inspector during the home inspection to ask questions and learn about your new home.

Once the physical walk through of the property is complete the inspector will then organize images and observations in such a way that the home inspection report will be easy to read and reference. You will receive the completed report within 24 hours of your inspection, but we do our best to get it to you that same evening.

Where Can I Find My Home Inspection Report

Every report that we write is digital and will be sent to you via e-mail within 24 hours of your inspection. If you would like to save or print a copy of your inspection you can click the link for a PDF file which will be downloaded to your device.

The virtual dashboard that you used to sign the pre-inspection agreement and pay the invoice will be the same dashboard that allows you to see your report. Your inspection report will be hosted online in the cloud.

What Does a Home Inspection Report Look Like

A home inspection report is a multipage document that outlines defects and issues that the home inspector finds. The document is electronic and includes pictures, videos and descriptions of the property that are clearly stated and organized to help with home maintenance or negotiating a better closing price. Please take a look at our sample report.
