A home inspection is purely to investigate the structural soundness of the home and foundation. It can include amenities, necessities, air conditioning, electrical functions, conduction of the plumbing system, attic structural capacity, visible insulation, ceilings, walls, windows, floors, and more. They do not use an opinion of value as appraisers do.
An appraisal deals with the direct value of a home instead of the physical condition of home. The appraisal will consider the property’s condition, location, characteristics, and the overall real estate market in this particular area and neighborhood.
