Identifying subtle defects before you sign a purchase contract can translate into a reduced selling price, or repair of uncovered defects at the sellers cost. Remember there is always room for negotiation. Of course, there is a limit to what any inspector can uncover because home inspections are visual investigations and destructive probing is not the standard of practice in the industry.
We strongly advise that the buyer accompany the engineer during the home inspection because one picture is worth a thousand words and there’s a unique opportunity to learn about the home; the engineer will be happy to answer any questions and explain inspection procedure.
