Step 5:  Having Inspections Done on the Home

When you purchase a home, it is important to have it inspected to avoid expensive problems after closing.  

Here are some of the inspections you may want to consider:

Building Inspection  The basic home inspection is called different things in different areas!  This inspection is to make sure that the home has no hidden defects that could cause you problem.  It is not to make an older home like new!

Wood Destroying Organism Inspection  This is normally referred to as a "Termite Inspection", this inspection really covers any insect (termites, carpenter bees, etc.) or organism (ie, wet rot, dry rot, fungus, etc) that can destroy wood in a home. 

Environmental Inspections  There are many different environmental issues that may concern you....from radon to mold....and a lot more.

Well Water, Septic and Sewer Inspections

This is not a comprehensive list because each home and situation is different!  To avoid surprises, sellers may want to have some inspections done before they start to sell their home so they can make repairs BEFORE a contract is written.
