Use a licensed, experienced inspector.

• If youre buying a home or commercial property,
  you may have some uncertainty or even a little
  doubt. Thats perfectly normal, even for very
  experienced buyers. Real estate is a significant
  investment and addressing all of your concerns is
  important. Thats where an experienced home
  inspection company can help. You want to find
  someone who offers complete inspection services
  to find existing or potential issues before they
  become major (and expensive) problems.

Ask for professional referrals from realtors,
lenders, and appraisers.
Do your own research - consult with colleagues,
look at reviews, and make sure the inspector
carries a valid license.

How to find an experienced home or commercial
inspector.
Look for inspectors who are part of a
professional organization, like InterNACHI, which
require inspectors to abide by a strict code of
ethics.
Ask them for their qualifications, licenses,
certifications,and experience.

How to make sure youre getting the right
services.

• Your inspector should recommend additional
  specialized inspections, such as a structural
  inspection, wood destroying organism inspection,
  pool and spa inspection, or sprinkler inspection.
  If they dont, thats a red flag. We recommend
  booking these during your general inspection, so
  that you get a complete picture of the entire
  property.

Do I need to be present during the inspection?

• You dont need to be present, but we do highly
  recommend it. By attending, you can be a part of
  the inspection process firsthand, see the defects
  with your own eyes, get your questions answered,
  and eliminate later confusion.

6
How long does an inspection take?

• The time it takes for your property inspection
  depends on various factors, including the size of
  the property, location, and the type and number
  of ancillary services, among other factors. A
  typical inspection of a 2,000 square foot slab
  house takes about 2to 2.5 hours.
