Pre-Purchase Inspection

Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions most people will make in their lifetime. Knowing what defects exist in a home prior to purchasing takes some uncertainty out of the process. At Holston Home Inspections, we help you make decisions with confidence. We adhere to a strict standard of practice.

When you’re purchasing a home, there are so many details to consider that it can be overwhelming. One of the best ways to put your mind at ease is to invest in a professional home inspection. At Holston Home Inspections, we understand that the decision to purchase a home is a major one. We’re here to help you make an informed choice.

Our home inspector is trained to evaluate all of the major systems and components of a home, following a rigorous standard of practice and code of ethics. During the inspection process, we will conduct a visual and non-invasive examination of the property. This means that we won’t be tearing down walls or digging up the foundation. Instead, we’ll rely on our expertise and specialized tools (like thermal cameras) to evaluate the home’s condition.

What do I get out of a home inspection?

The result of our inspection is a detailed report. The report outlines any maintenance items, minor defects, and major defects that we identified during the inspection. This report is an invaluable resource for homebuyers, as it provides a detailed description of the property’s current condition. 

The report will highlight any major defects that we identified during the inspection. These are issues that could have a significant impact on the safety, livability, or value of the property. If major defects are identified, you may be able to use the report to negotiate with the seller and request necessary repairs before closing on the house. This can save you time, money, and stress down the line.

When you choose Holston Home Inspections, you don’t just get the inspection report. You also get excellent customer service. We are willing to take the time to discuss any concerns and answer any questions you may have about your house.

A pre-purchase inspection is a critical step in the home-buying process. It can help you feel more confident in your decision and ensure that you make an informed investment in your future. Schedule your inspection today!
