For a professional , thorough, home inspection, a typical home will take 2.5 to 4 hours to inspect, depending on the size and number of problems discovered. Some inspectors will breeze through a home in 1 hour or less, but this type of inspection may not be thorough enough to depend on. Some inspection companies charge much less, but this could be a sign of an inexperienced inspector or a substandard inspection. Purchasing a home is usually the biggest investment a person will ever make. It only makes sense to know the condition of the property prior to consumating the purchase.
New homes are no exception.
We frequently find more problems with new homes than with resale homes.
