Know who you’re Calling & Hiring for your Home Inspection Services

When hiring a company to perform a quality home inspection, there are a few things you need to consider. One of the most important is to ensure that you hire a professional inspector who is qualified and experienced. In the past, there were few standards set into place, meaning poorly trained and low experienced “meant to be” inspectors were out evaluating homes. It was possible that anyone with a flashlight, helmet, set of ladders, and some business cards could pass as an Inspector.

Not a professional home inspector

It important to know whom you are calling and what services they offer, and if they hold a state license, insurance, and certification, they really could be anyone untrained and inexperienced sitting at the other end of the phone. Choose a reputable company with years of business history, client references, and real experience, this way you will be sure to hire a qualified home inspector.

It’s good to have companies like The American Society of Home Inspectors who have really tightened the reins ensuring that certain standards are being met and establishing proper codes of practice for each inspector to adhere to. A home inspection is an integral part of the home buying process and you deserve the most professional of standards and the assurance that your investment is a sound one.

In most cases, the results of a professional home inspection evaluation are the determining factor that will let you know it is worth continuing onto the closing agreement. It is a decision that can’t be ignored. Buying a home is the biggest purchase that you make, which is why it is important to make the right decisions at the time of buying a home and hire a licensed and certified inspector. Move into your new home knowing that it is in great condition.
