In my experience, spending a few hundred dollars on a professional home inspection is the best investment you'll ever make. A professional inspector brings experience in examining a great many homes, good evaluation standards and an unbiased perspective. And a written report can be an excellent negotiating tool.

A Typical Inspection Looks At:

#1- Foundation (slab, crawlspace, basement, etc.)

#2- Electrical, heating and plumbing systems

#3- Floors, walls and ceilings

#4- Attic

#5- Roof

#6- Siding and trim

#7- Porches, patios and decks

#8- Garage

#9- Property drainage

Make sure you accompany your inspector on the tour. You'll learn a lot about the home you're thinking of buying.

Once you have your evaluation, the decision to proceed is your. A home inspector only gives you a professional opinion of the home's condition, not advice as to whether or not you should buy.
