Know what you are buying!

Many lenders are requiring the buyer have a home inspection done by a state licensed home inspector prior to settlement to assure that the house is in good condition.

The inspection serves as your guarantee that your future home has been checked for major structural flaws.

Some problems take the trained eye of an inspector to see -- and they are problems that could cost you the enjoyment of your new home.

Have the peace of mind that your decision to invest in this property is a good one!

I am a Kentucky state licensed home inspector. I will check the outside of your home for structural integrity, roof, foundation and drainage problems. Inside I will check the electrical, plumbing, HVAC and major appliances to confirm proper function.

After inspection, you are supplied with a written detailed report. If problems are revealed you can confer with the seller about repair before you sign on the line.

Depending on the severity of what is discovered, you may need to wait for the seller to make repairs. You may want to pursue a different investment. You may be able to choose to handle the issue yourself and pay a lower price for the property.

There are several factors that go into the cost of an inspection including the size of the house, extra features like a pool or barn. Usually the price will be around $250 - $350.
