A home inspection allows visual analysis of all part of the home including the structure itself. The objective of such an inspection is to ensure that all parts of the building are functioning as they should, and that the structure itself is basically sound.

These pre purchase building inspections must go through all the interiors of the home, its electrical, plumbing and other systems, the exteriors of the home, with special attention to the roof and also inspect the foundations and any external drainage systems.

Many people prefer to carry out such inspections themselves, but getting in a professional can give you a better insight and is more than worth the expense of appointing such experts. The expert needs to be a certified professional and can also include testing for pests and radon.

Inspection of a property before purchase is not an appraisal, which requires separate expertise. The home inspector will evaluate the physical condition of the building and its present condition and need for attention. The expert will indicate the longevity of the home along with other aspects, and this can help you to decide on the mortgage period.

Such inspections take a couple of hours at the least and may even take longer for bigger properties. The written report from the inspector, especially if it is from a person who is certified, can form a basis to continue discussions with the seller.

Pre purchase inspection is especially important for foreclosed properties. The foreclosure will have come about because of the poor financial condition of the existing owner, and it is highly unlikely that such homes will have received the attention to maintenance that is a must for all homes.

So it is more than likely that you will find cracked walls, peeling paint, sagging doors, poorly fitted windows, leaking taps, damp basements and other signs of neglect. Floors need to be in fairly good condition, as replacing a few tiles may be easy, but if an entire room has to be redone, this can set you back quite a bit.
