Insist On A Home Inspection Mississauga Before Buying Your Dream Home

You've found the home you want, at the right price, and the house looks like it's in pristine condition. But always keep in  the mind that, particularly when the home is for sale by the owner, the home has been "dressed up" to accentuate its best  features and minimize its potential flaws. Before you close on the purchase of a home - or sometimes even before you make an  offer - you should insist on an Home Inspection Mississauga by a professional inspector.

Why Home Inspections are Important

Buying a home is likely one of the most important purchases you"ll ever make and opting for a home inspection can help make  the difference between finding a great investment or ending up with a true money pit. Relatively inexpensive, and quick to do  – most home inspections can be done in the span of several hours a home inspection can give you a true view of a home's  condition and let you know what to expect in terms of general maintenance, repair and renovation costs. In fact, the details  you can learn about your property from a home inspection may help you secure a better home insurance rate and ensure you have  the right insurance coverage. In addition, the findings from a home inspection could help you when negotiating your final  offer on a home… especially if the results identify major issues.

If you arrange for a home inspection by a professional before the sale goes through, the problem is still the sellers. If you  choose not to have a home inspection done, the problem, unfortunately, becomes yours.

According to home inspectors, homes are sometimes not particularly well cared for by homeowners, who are slow to fix leaky  faucets, replace heating or A/C filters, or clunky furnaces. If homes with homeowners living in the property can be uncared  for, imagine what conditions a foreclosed home can hide. Mold can grow if the water hasn't been turned off and the  environment becomes moist. If the home is boarded up and there is no ventilation for weeks or months, black mold can grow  fairly quickly.

Because of the importance of a Mississauga Home Inspection, you should make the purchase of the home on your approval of a  home inspector's report. When making a written offer for the home, simply make the home inspection a condition of the  purchase. If your home inspection comes back clean, you can proceed with the sale with confidence. And if the report is  negative, you can reduce your offer, make the seller pay for any repairs, or even back out of the contract altogether.Please  contact us on 647-704-7100 to discuss your needs.
