When searching for a property, certain features may immediately draw attention, such as natural lighting, exposed brick, location, or a spacious kitchen. However, it is also necessary to consider potential issues that may not be readily visible. A certified Inspector can assess various areas, including the roof, attics, and behind outlet covers, to provide a comprehensive evaluation. Inspectors are also able to identify any modifications that do not comply with building codes, which may result in additional costs if corrections are required. Typically, the concerns identified involve standard maintenance needs that can be addressed or negotiated during the purchasing process. Occasionally, Inspections reveal significant issues, such as foundation problems or structural damage, which could require substantial investment. Being informed about these matters prior to purchase is advisable.
