Home Inspectors

Here are some suggested items to check for during a home inspection for a real estate transaction:

1. Roof: Check for leaks, missing or damaged shingles, and proper ventilation.
2. Foundation: Look for cracks, settling, or other structural issues.
3. Plumbing: Check for leaks, proper water pressure, and functioning fixtures.
4. Electrical: Ensure that wiring is up-to-code, circuit breakers are properly labeled, and outlets are grounded.
5. HVAC: Check the heating and cooling systems for proper operation and maintenance.
6. Insulation: Inspect the insulation in the walls, attic, and floors to ensure it is adequate.
7. Windows and doors: Check for proper operation and any signs of leaks or drafts.
8. Pests: Look for evidence of pests, such as termites or carpenter ants.
9. Water damage: Check for signs of water damage or mold in the basement, attic, and around windows and doors.
10. Safety features: Check for working smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, and ensure the home has proper egress.
11. Mold and Radon:  A mold and radon check should be performed during a home inspection for a real estate transaction to ensure the safety and health of the potential buyers. Mold can cause respiratory issues and structural damage, while radon is a naturally occurring gas that can cause lung cancer.
12. Wind Mitigation and a 4 point inspection: Wind mitigation refers to the measures that are taken to protect a home from damage caused by strong winds. These measures can include things like reinforcing the roof, installing impact-resistant windows, and strengthening the walls and foundation of the home. A wind mitigation inspection is typically performed by a licensed inspector who will assess the structural integrity of the home and make recommendations for any necessary repairs or upgrades.

    A 4 point inspection is another type of inspection that is commonly performed during a real estate transaction. This inspection focuses on the four main systems of a home: the roof, electrical, plumbing, and heating/air conditioning. The inspector will examine these systems to ensure that they are in good working condition and identify any issues that need to be addressed. This inspection is often required by insurance companies before they will provide coverage for a home.

    Both wind mitigation and 4 point inspections are important for protecting the home and the buyers' interests during a real estate transaction. They provide important information about the structural integrity and overall condition of the home, which can be used to make informed decisions about the purchase or sale of the property.
