SINCE 2005         CASTLE HOME INSPECTION               

REAL ESTATE INSPECTION 

A real estate inspection is a survey and basic operation of the systems and components of a building which can be reached, entered, or viewed without difficulty, moving obstructions, or requiring any action which may result in damage to the property or personal injury to the Inspector. The purpose of the inspection is to provide the Client with information regarding the general condition of the building. Cosmetic and aesthetic conditions shall not be considered.

A real estate inspection report provides written documentation of material defects that are discovered within the building inspected. The findings are the opinion of the Inspector which include safety hazards, non functioning or failing systems and components. The report may include the Inspector's recommendations for correction or further evaluation.

WHY THE SELLER PROVIDES A REAL ESTATE  INSPECTION

It is not unusual to find sellers who would like to provided there own real estate inspection prior to the sale of there home. A sellers inspection provides the knowledge and opertunity to make any needed repairs allowing the sale of the home to go smoothly, rather then discovering these potential problems during the sale or from the buyers home inspector. With less disagreements during negotition there less chance of deals breaking, it also allows the seller to have more control of the negoitions wiith the buyer. Repairs done prior to putting the home on the market can also be done by a person of your choose such as a handyman using material quality of your choose, oppossed to a contractor and higher quality materials the buyer request. By making the necessary repairs it puts the home on the market at a better value and it shows good faith with disclosures and the home inspection can be used as a tool to attract buyer. 

WHY THE BUYER PROVIDES A REAL ESTATE INSPECTION

Knowing exactly what you are buying is probably the biggest hurdle to jump in a real estate transaction yet many buyers do not personally perform a diligent visual inspection of the property or may not know what they are looking for. Home buyers are often clueless about home construction and its components, and have difficulty deciphering what is major or minor and whether or not a repair is needed immediatly or not. Our inspection is thorough and time is taken to insure the client is educated and properly imformed of conditions. My goal is to provide the client with the minor concerns as well as any major or safety issues. The real estate inspection does not put value on the structure, the inspection is not an appraisal or a municipal code inspection, however it does provide the client with a better understanding of the structures components, there condition, and how these systems work prior to your purchase. The best time for a buyer to obtain a home inspection is immediately after entering into a real estate contract, your professional Real Estate agent should include a clause with the sale contingent on the findings of the inspections performed on the subject structure.
