Why a Home Inspection Matters
A thorough home inspection also gives you knowledge about any potential home repairs. Armed with your report, you can either negotiate needed repairs as part of the sale, or plan how to budget to make the repairs yourself after close. And remember, you are not required to be there for the home inspection but it is highly recommended that you are so that you can observe the process and ask questions as you learn about the condition of the house and how it should be maintained. Buying a home is potentially the biggest investment of your life. The inspection step is your opportunity to watch and learn about your purchase first-hand.
