A Health Checkup for Your House

This type of home inspection will help to prioritize a home improvement list, and to hopefully find out about small problems before they turn into big ones. In some cases, it can reveal that what was thought to be a small problem has already turned into a big one.
Like an annual physical, a maintenance inspection can catch issues early and give you the peace of mind of a clean bill of health.
What occurs during a home maintenance inspection
Similar to a pre-purchase inspection, your inspector will walk you through the home, showing you what was found and explaining what it means. This is a great time to ask questions and get clarifications. Your home inspector will point out things you should be doing regularly to keep all of your home’s systems functioning in tiptop shape.
Afterwards, you get a written report detailing everything the inspector found. Think of it as an itemized punch list to address whenever you choose.
