We recommend you hire a licensed professional home inspector to inspect the home. Home Sellers can identify defects and malfunctions in the Sellers Disclosure. This is helpful information but we do not rely on the home Seller to analyze the home condition. A professional home inspection is a visual inspection of condition of a home. Inspectors look for items not functioning within guidelines of the “Standards of Practice” established by the Texas Real Estate Commission. Inspectors report findings and can recommend further evaluation by a specific trade (structural engineer report).
