I can only advise on real estate.  I do not have the qualifications or expertise of a home inspector, which requires unique training, education, experience, and knowledge to earn their certification.  

When buying a home, I advise you to at least have a general home inspection and to always use a certified inspector.  However, depending on the property and your home inspector's guidance, you may also want to consider other inspection services such as soil & geological conditions, environmental hazards, sewer/septic systems, well & water systems, roof, boundary lines/lot size, easements/encroachments, permits, zoning, & code compliance, solar systems, water conservation requirements, and others.

Below is a list of home inspectors some of my clients have used and been satisfied with in the past, however I cannot select which inspector you use. You may select any home inspector you wish.  Please verify appropriate licenses and do your own research before selecting any service provider.

Once you select the inspector, I can facilitate scheduling the appointment and will be present at the inspection, additionally:

1.  Have the inspection no matter the condition of the home.  Appearances can be deceptive - even new construction homes could have issues.

2.  Be present for the inspection, let the inspector know your concerns, sit back and let the inspector do his job, stay for the readout, ask questions and have the inspector point out issues.  Be sure your questions are answered.

3.  Read the report but don't get caught in the weeds.  Every house has flaws, and most items can be repaired, focus on health and safety issues.

4. Don't delegate the final walk through (verification of property) , it's an important to see for yourself the property is in the same condition as when your offer was accepted, and any agreed upon repairs are complete.  Note:  verification of property is not a contingency.
