Commercial property inspections involve a detailed examination of commercial buildings and properties, such as offices, retail spaces, multi-family, warehouses, and other types of commercial real estate. The inspection assesses the condition of the building’s major systems (like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC), structure, exterior and interior elements, roof, foundation, and more. The aim is to identify any defects or issues that could affect the property’s value or pose safety risks. This process helps investors, owners, and lessees make informed decisions regarding purchase, lease, maintenance, and improvement strategies for the property.
A residential property inspection is a thorough assessment conducted by a professional inspector to evaluate the condition of a home. This process typically covers the examination of the property’s structural elements, systems (such as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC), and other essential components like the roof, foundation, windows, and doors. The goal is to identify any existing or potential issues that might need repair or replacement, ensuring the safety, security, and investment value of the property.

A home doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, a home inspection is a thorough audit of your home’s components. In most cases, there will be concerns marked on your home inspection report, but these are strictly informative.
WHILE YOU CAN LEGALLY SKIP A HOME INSPECTION, DOING SO COULD MEAN THAT YOU MAY END UP BUYING A HOME WITH MAJOR ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE FIXED.
While a home inspector may recommend some minor repairs, they are not qualified to make major repairs. He or she can provide information about what needs to be repaired — and it might be helpful to know that information — but the decision to actually do the work lies solely with the homeowner. Not only does this give you the freedom to choose your contractors, but it also helps prevent a conflict of interest.
A home inspection can affect appraisals for two reasons: 1) The inspector may find something wrong with the property that would lower the value of the home, 2) The inspector may find things that need repair which could increase the value of the home. If the inspection finds issues that require repairs, then the seller has to decide whether they want to fix them themselves, or hire someone else to do it. If the buyer wants to purchase the home, he/she must be willing to pay for those repairs.
