A home inspection is your way to find out if the home you are purchasing is really what it seems. The home inspection is part of your due diligence, in other words, to make sure you are buying what you expect. If you are purchasing what you expect then you will have peace of mind that you are making a wise home purchasing decision. If the inspection report is not acceptable then you have the opportunity to move on or make changes to the conditions of your contract. That is, if you have an inspection contingency in your purchase agreement.

In making a purchasing decision, information is power. A thorough home inspection will give you the information you need to make a wise decision.  The information you receive from the report should be nonbiased, accurate, and from a qualified inspector. NY State has some minimum standards of competency. If you think all inspectors are the same you are kidding yourself. This is why we offer bios on our website on all our inspectors. We want people to know that we are sending people with the right education and experience to do a very thorough inspection. We also don't just send 1 inspector we send at least 2, which only adds to the total experience and education being used to do the inspection. We feel we offer the most comprehensive inspection you will find. Isn't that what you should want?

Yet we are a society where price seems to always be what people look to most. When it comes to one of the biggest investments you will make in your lifetime and the safety of your family, why do some people shop only price when it comes to such a vital and important part of a home purchase. Who you are hiring for your inspection should be your first question you ask yourself. In the entire scheme of things if the person who has the most education and experience charges more than your run of the mill inspector, he or she is well worth it.
