Four costly mistakes every homebuyer should avoid when hiring a home inspector

1. Shopping for the best price.
The cost of a home inspection is a very small part of the expense of buying a home. The qualifications and experience of your inspector are far more important than the cost. A highly qualified inspector may cost a little more than an inexperienced or poorly trained one. Will the lowest bidder be ASHI certified, insured, or stand behind reports and provide service after the inspection? Don't have your dream home inspected by the lowest bidder.

2. Not receiving the inspection reports on the day of the inspection.
Most real estate contracts limit the time to respond to the findings of the home inspection. You need the maximum allowed time to consider each finding, get estimates for repairs, and consultation with your agent. Reports delivered by mail or over the internet may rob you of valuable time.
Go to "
home inspection" page for inspection and report information

3. A fast inspection will save me and the agent time.
Inspections, like baking bread, require time to be thorough, comprehensive, and complete. Time should be allowed to ask questions, understand the findings, and review the final report. Beware of the inspector who is scheduling more than two inspections a day. They may not have enough time to be thorough or allow time for you to ask important questions.
Go to "
home inspection" page for information on inspection scheduling.

4. Allowing your agent to hire an inspector for you.
Many realtors will only recommend a highly qualified inspector they can rely on to provide a thorough inspection, however, just as many will recommend the fastest one they can find in order to shorten their time at the inspection. They may also "shop" for the lowest price, somehow believing they are saving you time and money.
