| A Home Inspector examines the condition of a home, often in connection with the sale of that home. An inspector will check items such as the roof, the basement, the heating system, the water heater, and the air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, electrical, and many other aspects of buildings looking for damage which may require expensive repairs, as well as fire, safety, and health hazards. Think of a home inspector as a detective searching throughout the house for clues that lead to a conclusion of the home's overall condition. A home inspector is often confused with a real estate appraiser. A home inspector determines the condition of a structure, whereas an appraiser determines the value of a property. In the United States, a contract to purchase a house will often include a contingency that the contract is not valid until a home inspector has inspected the property (and the contract will usually provide for how problems found in inspection are to be remedied). In many states, home inspectors are required to be licensed. A home inspection is often referred to as an "engineering report", although many home inspectors are not licensed engineers. The difference between a home inspector and professional engineer is that the engineer can offer (likely at extra cost) design specifications for repair or reinforcement of a structural deficiency, assuming the engineer is a structural engineer as opposed to an electrical engineer or other type of engineer. Either way, anyone entering the home inspection field needs to be trained in the unique discipline of home inspection. Assuming that the inspector or engineer has been properly trained and has sufficient experience, either person should be able to provide a satisfactory, detailed inspection of a property. Getting your home inspected is one of the best things you can do before you purchase a new home. Make sure the company you choose is a quality company because there are many inexperienced companies. We recommend Home Inspection South Florida.
