Home Inspections

Purchasing Shawnee OK real estate requires knowledge most of us don’t have. That’s why we rely on the expertise of industry professionals like home inspectors. Before you hire an inspector, ask questions!

• How much will it cost?
• What do you inspect for?
• What areas or parts of the house do you inspect?
• How do you inspect? (sight only, tool, specialized equipment)
• Do you move anything?
• Are you licensed, bonded, with experience?
• Are you an expert in other areas?
• Do you hold other licenses?
• How long have you been inspecting?
• How many inspections have you done in the last year?
• Do you give a warranty/guaranty?
• Are you a member of a professional inspection association? (e.g. ASHI)
• Are you certified by an inspection association?
• Do you use the inspection work as a vehicle to obtain other contract work? (i.e. repair or equipment installation)
• Are your inspection reports computerized? Include photos?
• How much time do your inspections take? Do you recap your findings with me and my buyer’s agent at the property?
• Do you require payment at the time of inspection or from closing?
