What is a Buyer Home Inspection?

A home buyer inspection is a thorough examination of a home-with the home buyer in mind. This inspection includes an evaluation of all the systems and structural elements of a home. We evaluate the entire building including the roof and attic, building structure and foundation, crawlspaces, exteriors and interiors, garages, electrical systems, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, and any appliances that are conveying with the home. Our goal is to document any issues that may be present and costly to repair. This allows the homebuyer to negotiate repairs, or receive monetary compensation towards those repairs. A home buyer inspection protects the homebuyer and allows them to make an educated decision about the home they would like to buy.

Our approach to Home Buyer Inspections

A residential home inspection is a comprehensive, visual inspection of your entire building.

Examine the Entire Home

We examine the home from top to bottom. This includes the roof, attic, foundation, building structure exterior, crawl spaces, and complete interior footprint—even soil grading and drainage.

Inspect Plumbing & Windows

We examine the plumbing and water heating from top to bottom to make sure it’s working and there will be no surprises after purchasing the home. We also examine your windows to make sure they are safe and allow for emergency exits. 

Test Systems & Appliances

We take the time to test your electrical and HVAC rigorously. (Are AC ducts connected? Are they cooling each room effectively?) All major home appliances are tested to ensure they function well. 

Scan With Our FLIR Thermal Infrared Cameras

We do thermal camera scans for moisture and any water intrusion. Another benefit of thermal camera scans is we can find evidence of electrical overheating.

Quick Reports

Our Home Buyer Inspection Reports are delivered speedily—usually in 24 hours.

Professional Work

When we enter your home, we take pride in showing it the utmost respect.

“Mike had been a pleasure to work with, during the process of buying a house it’s hard to find a good honest reliable person. He was thorough and made sure to check everything. He didn’t rush and made me aware of small things that where not a big problem but should fix. He’s communication and attention to detail where excellent. If you need a qualified and amazing company to do inspections, I recommend Maverick inspections service. I will definitely use his services again.”

FAQs

No worries, you don’t need to be there for the whole inspection. We’ll just need a key to access the house. However, we prefer you are there at the end, if possible. If you are out of town and this is not possible, no problem. The report is photo documented and detailed. Because our reports are so thorough, we get very few calls later.

The price of the inspection depends on the size of the home and the number of stories you house is. Please contact us for an exact quote.

We do! Maverick Inspection Services can provide a comprehensive pool and hot tub or irrigation inspection. However this is at an additional cost to our home inspection. Please contact us for a quote.

Our reports are highly detailed and they are uploaded online for your review. As long as we have access to the house, we can do a home inspection for a client out of the country.

Sure, here is a sample report:

The inspection of a home takes 2-4 hours on average. This will depend on the size of the building.

We’ll need access to the property, usually by means of a homeowner or a Realtor. If you have knowledge of any issues before we arrive, it is helpful to provide those to us as well. If you have any specific concerns, let us know. We’ll give them our special attention.

You can combine the following:

  1. Multiple inspections on one house. (For example, if you need a home inspection, a Wood Destroying Organism Inspection, and an Irrigation Inspection.)
  2. Multiple inspections on various houses. (For example, if you are considering buying a home but can’t decide between two homes—we’ll inspect them both for you and provide reports on both homes to help you make a good decision.)

Upon request, we can provide a list of well-reviewed local contractors that our customers enjoy using.

However, you always hire a contractor at your own risk.
