"New Construction Doesn't Need to be Inspected"
If you’re preparing to buy a newly constructed home, it’s a line you’ve probably heard a time or two by now: “This is a brand new house - you’ll just be wasting your money if you hire a home inspector. If there was anything wrong, they would have already caught it.”
Um, ok. But what if they didn’t? It’s the nightmare scenario homebuyers dread. You’re just about settled in - all the boxes are unpacked, and it’s starting to feel like home. Until the first storm hits, and there’s water everywhere. Now what?
One of the most common myths in circulation regarding new construction home inspection is that the home has already been inspected many times by the city as part of the permit process, so the buyer is wasting their money hiring a private home inspector. While there may have been many brief inspections performed by the city along the way, things still get missed every day. Did you know that unless a ladder is provided at the site for the city inspector, they won’t even get up on the roof to inspect it? Believe it or not, it’s common practice for roofers to leave photos for the building inspector to look at to sign off on the roof.
Of course, the best way to deal with this issue is to prevent it from happening. A professional home inspection from a trusted home inspection company will give you peace of mind and help facilitate a successful, pain-free transaction.
