When you’re purchasing a home, few things can set your mind at ease about the quality of the property that you are purchasing quite like a complete home inspection report can. Put simply, the right inspection service will surface to you all of the problems that exist with the house.

Armed with this information, you can negotiate the property price to get a better offer for yourself.

The only crick in the process is knowing how to find a good home inspector. The home inspection services market is a crowded one, and you want to be sure you get one that will do the job right the first time. To help you with that, we’ve created a list of a few things to watch out for as you look for a home inspector.

Ask for Referrals

The first step in learning the process of how to choose a house inspector is to ask for referrals. There’s no doubt that someone in your social circles has previously had a home inspection done prior to buying their property. Ask them what home inspection service they used.

They’ll either be able to direct you to a high-quality service or tell you who to stay away from based on their experience. Both pieces of information are often equally valuable!

Check Online Reviews

Once you have a few good candidates for a home inspection service on your shortlist from referrals, it’s time to trim that list down even further. To do so, check out the online reviews of each of those companies.

The beauty of the Internet is that it allows consumers to check the reputation of virtually any company online in a matter of seconds. If the home inspection service that you’re looking at doesn’t have a plethora of happy customers willing to sing its praises, then you’re looking at the wrong company.

See Previous Reports

Last but certainly not least, before you decide on any specific home inspection service, make sure that you get a look at some of the previous reports that they have done. This will give you an accurate picture of how thorough the home inspection service is.

As a general rule, the more thorough a home inspection service is, the more it costs. But knowing everything that’s wrong with a property is one of the primary benefits of hiring a house inspector. Getting that detailed home inspection before buying a property will give you a clear view of how much money you’re going to have to put into fixing things as soon as you move in.

How to Find a Good Home Inspector, Made Simple

There you have it. Now that you know how to find a good home inspector in a few steps, all that’s left is for you to start asking your friends for referrals so you can follow this process. Good luck with your house purchase!
