Home inspection is just like a health check up of a home. It provides an in depth report mentioning exhaustively all the elements / components of the home that is being inspected, materials used, and any issues / defects / anomalies that need special attention. The report is self explanatory and helps the client to understand the condition, otherwise we are always a call away.

Home is one of the biggest investment one make in one’s life time. A large part of our savings goes into buying our dream homes, furnishing it and then paying stamp duty / brokerage, etc

All of us wants our dream home to be as we have envisaged……. safe – sound – secured.

We should and have the right to know “How Healthy our Homes are”. We need to get a Complete Health Check-up of our dream homes just the way we get a complete checkup of our body.

For a home of approx. 2000 square feet, a team of 5 members take approximately 4-5 hours to complete the inspection.

Ideally, yes. The goal of a home inspection is not just to inspect the property, but also to educate the homeowner or potential buyer about the property's condition. This is better achieved if you are present at the time of the inspection. It is especially important to be present during our inspection. By accompanying the inspector, you will have the opportunity to:

• See the condition of each key component throughout the house and property first hand, get a better understanding of the home and of the resulting inspection report.
• Ease any concerns about findings which may seem distressing on paper but are in fact superficial. For example, the inspector might explain that an unsightly column needs only a coat of paint.
• Have all of your questions and concerns addressed immediately as they arise.

I have to make an appointment with the home inspector, call him / her over on a particular day for inspection. I should make sure the house / apartment is easily accessible and all areas within the home are accessible, and not locked. As far as possible, the areas should not have furnishings to enable ease of access of each and every system / component of all the areas of the house being inspected. Also all areas must be clean for a smooth and proper inspection to take place.

No. A professional home inspection is an examination of the current condition of a house. It is not an appraisal, which determines market value. It is not a municipal inspection, which verifies local code compliance. A home inspector, therefore, will not pass or fail a house, but rather describe its physical condition and indicate what components and systems may need to be kept under observation, or needs repair / replacement.

No house is perfect. If the inspector identifies problems, it doesn’t mean you should or shouldn’t buy the house, only that you will know in advance what to expect. If your budget is tight, or if you don’t want to become involved in future repair work, this information will be important to you. If major problems are found, a seller may agree to make repairs.

Definitely. Now you can complete your home purchase with confidence. You’ll have learned many things about your home from the inspector’s written report, and will have that information for future reference.

The inspector can give you an estimate if you ask for it. However, final cost will be provided by the specialists resolving / repairing the defects.
