Thinking about buying a new home? Congratulations—you’re likely making one of the biggest, most important decisions of your life!
But before you dive into the process, it’s important to understand how to navigate the home inspection process. When are inspectors required, who pays for them, and what can you do if there’s a problem with your inspector? What are some red flags that might mean problems down the road? How can you protect yourself from pests or mold? Is there anything about your home’s history that could be relevant to its condition now? The more informed you are about what goes into buying a new home, the better off you’ll be.
