Home Inspections For Investors

It's All About ROI

Protect Your Expected Return On Investment
Even the most seasoned of investors can bennefit from a home insepction. All to often we have inspected homes that were a "flip" done by an investor, only to find that while the home had been prettied up with new paint and carpet, the homes strutucral and mechanical systems were ignored.

As an investor, you need to know about potential safety or occupancy issues that could affect your ability to rent the property, or be a liability issue. If your goal is to flip the property, then you need to know what additional expenses you may be looking at to protect your profit margin. When your prospective buyer hires an independent Home Inspector, they are not going to care us much about the paint and carpet anymore if it is discovered that more serious issues exist with the house.

While we realize that most investors have played the game long enough to know the routine, there is still no substitute for a trained professionial Home Inspector who does it day in and day out for a living. With this in mind, investors may choose to hire us for a consultation, rather than a full home inspection. With a consultation, we will walk through the property with you and point out any items that most likely would come up on a buyers inspection. There is no written report with a consultation, and the cost is typically about half the cost of full inspection.
