The purchase of a home is probably the largest single investment you will ever make. To minimize unpleasant surprises and difficulties after the purchase, you should learn as much as you can about the condition of the property and the need for major repairs before you buy.
A home inspection also points out the positive aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will have a much clearer understanding of the house you are about to purchase.
If you are already a home owner, a home inspection may be used to identify problems and learn preventive measures that might avoid costly future repairs. If you are planning to sell your home on the market, an inspection will give you a better understanding of the conditions that may be discovered by the buyer's inspector, and give you an opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.
