A complete home inspection checklist covers the property surrounding the home in addition to the house itself. The inspection should cover every room and look for leaks, mold, or other major problems. When you’re looking for a home inspector, you should ask about what their inspection covers. The basic categories are: Interior: Walls, ceilings, floors, stairs, bathrooms, fireplaces, appliances, attics, basements, and more. Exterior: roof, windows, doors, foundation, and more.
Systems: plumbing, electricity, HVAC. Grounds: driveway, lawn/backyard, porch/patio.
