A home Inspection
A home inspector non-invasively examines the condition of a home, often
in connection with the sale of that home. This process is referred to as a
home inspection.
An inspector will check the roof, basement, heating system, water heater,
air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, electrical, and many other
aspects of buildings looking for damage which may require expensive
repairs, as well as fire, safety, and health hazards. Think of a home
inspector as a detective searching throughout the house for clues that
lead to a conclusion of the home's overall condition.
A home inspector is sometimes confused with a real estate appraiser. A
home inspector determines the condition of a structure, whereas an
appraiser determines the value of a property.
A home cannot "fail" an inspection, as there is no score or passing
grade given. A professional home inspection is an examination of the
current condition of a house. It is not an appraisal. It is not a
municipal inspection, which verifies local building code 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 a major repair or replacement.

Pre-delivery inspection
The pre-delivery inspection, which generally applies to newly-built
homes, is a real estate term that means the buyer has the option (or
requirement, depending upon how the real estate contract is written)
to inspect the property prior to closing or settlement. These
inspections generally takes place up to a week before a closing, and
they generally allow buyers the first opportunity to inspect their new
home. Additionally, the inspection is to ensure that all terms of the
contract have been met, that the home is substantially completed, and
that major items are in working order.
Along with a representative of the
builder (generally the
construction supervisor or foreman), the buyers may be accompanied by
a home inspector of their choice. Any noted defects are added to a
punch list for completion prior to closing. Often a second inspection
is conducted to ensure that the defects have been corrected.
Many local governments within the United States and Canada require
that new-home builders provide a home warranty for a limited period,
and this typically results in home builders conducting a pre-delivery
inspection with the buyer.
In a resale situation, this type of inspection is often termed the
"final walk-through", and, based on the contract's provisions, it
allows the buyer the opportunity to inspect the home prior to closing
to ensure that agreed-upon repairs or improvements have been
completed. |
