When purchasing a home do you need someone beyond the traditional inspector?
1.Structural Engineer - Door won't close or have cracks in walls could mean foundation trouble.
2. Pest Inspector - Soft wood, wood shavings, or sounds in a wall could be termites or other pest causing damage.
3. Landscape Expert - Is the yard wet, slope toward the house? Poor drainage can cause costly water damage and flooding.
4. Septic System Inspector - Is the ground soft or wet? The tank could be cracked or failing
5. Arborist - Surrounded by large trees - Tree roots and canopies can damage the roof, driveway, and foundation.
6. Toxic Substance Inspector - Older homes can have radon, lead or mold.
