What Is A Home Inspection?

A general home inspection is a non-invasive, visual examination of the accessible areas of a residential property based on the observations made on the date of the inspection, and not a prediction of future conditions. The inspection is designed to identify visual defects within specific systems and components as defined by the Standards of Practice. A general home inspection will not reveal every issue that exists or ever could exist, but only those material defects observed on the date and time of the inspection. The scope of work may be modified by the Client and Inspector prior to the inspection process.
