Do you require a property inspection?
An inspection is not the same as an appraisal, although both are used to protect you, the buyer, from hidden issues with the property that may arise at a later date. A home/property inspection is not required in the state of Pennsylvania, but Traditions Mortgage will order an appraisal, or a valuation of the property. If you are purchasing a property, ask your agent if a home inspection is necessary, depending on the home’s age or condition.
