Do I need a professional home inspection?
Yes. A home purchase is the biggest investment you will ever make. An inspection by Poliferno Homes will help provide the detailed information you need to feel confident about your potential purchase. After receiving our detailed report showing the home's condition at the time of the inspection, you’ll be able to make an informed decision that will easily pay for itself.
How long does an inspection take?
Of course it depends on the size of the home, age and condition of the property, but most of our inspections usually last somewhere between 2 and three hours. Sometimes that can be longer if you need additional services such as a radon or mold test.
Do I need to be present during the inspection?
If possible, yes. Obviously, the main purpose of the inspection is to inspect the home. But our secondary goal is education. Many customers ask questions about the home, how things work, etc. and we will help educate you so you have a good working knowledge of the property you purchase. That is easily done while the inspection is performed.
How will the inspection help me determine the condition of the home?
As mentioned above, during the inspection, Frank will explain the condition of the home. You will also be provided a full report, printed with color pictures to help you in the decision making process.
What is included in the inspection report?
Our report is an easy-to-understand document which details the current condition of the home's major areas (examples: heating, air conditioning, plumbing, electrical, roofing, etc.) including color pictures as a reference guide.
