Perhaps you are in the process of buying a newly constructed house or are even having a home built. Maybe you’re thinking that in view of this, it’s not necessary to get a home inspection done, after all no one has even lived in it. Even with new construction though, problems and issues may have arisen that need checking.
There are numerous problems that can arise in homes whether they are old or newly constructed. For example, there could be faults with the wiring and electrics or leaks and plumbing issues due to work not being done correctly or problems not being noticed. Even the contractors could unintentionally cause damage by washing up tools in the sinks or overloading electrical outlets etc. All these areas benefit from a thorough inspection so as to avoid bigger problems down the road.
There are also many benefits to getting your home inspector involved even while the home is being constructed. Before drywall and finishes are added which could potentially cover up a problem, the inspector can have a good look at the structure, pipes and wiring and see the quality of the house.
After considering just a few of the advantages to having your new home inspected, it’s clear to see the wisdom in having your home inspector involved throughout the process.
