Pre-Purchase Inspections

The roof is one of the most costly and important structures. We will examine the roof, its structure, shingles/tiles, flashing, gutters, downspouts and more.

This includes the exterior walkways and doors, siding, eaves and soffits, fascia, paint, and other such elements of the home’s exterior including sidewalks and mailboxes.

We will visually inspect the HVAC systems including ducts, filters, furnaces and air conditioning units inside & outside the property. Heat & cold blowing temps will both be tested.

We will visually inspect plumbing fixtures for proper function, including tubs, sinks, hoses, showers and water shut-off valves, if applicable, and look for leaks and other such flaws.

We will visually inspect both interior and exterior electrical systems including service drops, service masts, grounding, outlets, meters, circuit breakers, and other such systems.

We will test and examine all major appliances like hot water heaters, washers and dryers, dishwashers to look for any signs of potential failure or malfunction.

We will check doors and windows for proper sealing and drafts, signs of water damage, and more. We will also check the condition of all interior spaces.

We will examine the attic to ensure it is properly ventilated, check for moisture, assess the level of insulation, and more. We will also check for crawl space & attic door condition.

We will examine the foundation, crawlspaces to look for signs of things like past water damage, foundation cracking or shifting, and other such potentially expensive issues.
