    Home Inspections in Boston, MA

    A home inspection is one of the most critical aspects of purchasing a house, especially if you are a first-time buyer.  It is important to be informed about what you are investing in and to plan for future home maintenance and repairs.

    A reliable home inspection allows you to uncover the flaws in your new home before moving in and allows you to avoid repair expenses. You can negotiate the final price based on the home inspection report if your contract allows. Alternatively, you can ask the seller to take the time to rectify the problems before the sale is finalized and save yourself from a significant loss or future liabilities.

    What to Expect From Our Home Inspection

    You and the seller have negotiated the price, closing date, and other terms of the real estate deal until you are both satisfied. In the end, everything goes off without a hitch, right? Oh wait, that’s not quite right.

    The home inspection is a major stumbling block you must overcome before closing.

    Find out what to anticipate at each stage and how to prepare for it.

    Meet your home inspector at the premises. This way, you can ask them questions. The home inspector can explain any faults they find after the inspection. If you can’t meet your house inspector, let them know. Be sure to leave a key or have a family member wait who can let them in.

    After the home inspection, the inspector may briefly summarise his findings. If you miss some, don’t worry. The inspector will take many images and email you a thorough report of every issue.

    Your agent will review the report and decide if you should go ahead with the contract, request repairs, or request a lower purchase price.
