Unless you know what you are doing and work as a general contractor, I suggest your hire a professional Home Inspection company to inspect the home you are interested in buying.

Most people want to save a couple hundred bucks, and skip this step, but how much will it cost you if your have replace the home's electrical system, or re-roof?

Trust me the amount you are going to pay the home inspector is well worth the money you spend. Not just will it protect your purchase, but it's another negotiating tool we can use.

If the seller was not willing to lower the purchase price of the home, and the home inspector revealed numerous items of concern we might be able to re-negotiate the purchase price and save you some money.

Once we have the home inspection complete, and know we are going to continue with the purchase of this home, then we need to Apply for a Home Loan!
