Pre-Purchase Inspections

Buying a home isn't an easy decision. You may feel nervous, and with good reason - this is one of the most significant investments you'll ever make.

At chekmark home inspections, we want to make your house-buying experience as stress-free as possible. By conducting a thorough visual examination and analysis of its major systems, we can answer any questions you may have about the home's condition and set your mind at ease. After all, shouldn't such an important decision be made with as much information as possible? As they say, knowledge is power.

Since the purchase of a home is most likely the largest single purchase you will ever make, you should know what to expect - both indoors and out - in terms of repairs ,maintenance and their costs. A fresh coat of paint could be hiding serious structural problems . Water stains in the basement may indicate a chronic seepage problem or may be simply the result of a single incident. The home inspector interprets these and other clues, then presents his professional opinion as to the condition of the property before you buy.

Of coarse , a home inspection will also point out the positive aspects of a home , as well as the type of maintenance that will be necessary to keep the home in good shape. After the inspection , you should have a much clearer understanding of what it is you are about to purchase, and be able to make your decision with more confidence.

If you have owned your home for a period of time , a home inspection can identify the problems in the making and recommend prevenitive measures which might avoid future repairs.
