A home inspection conducted by an experienced professional often provides buyers with the most important information about their intended purchase. After all, no one wants to find out that a leaky roof or an unstable foundation is a problem after having purchased and lived in the home. Thus, it is important to delve into potentially problematic areas as needed. As a general matter, home inspectors do not rip floors, walls, and ceilings open to confirm their suspicions. However, if such actions are needed, the buyer can use information provided by the inspection to seek the seller’s permission to conduct a more comprehensive examination. Buyers should also look to home inspectors to recommend specialists, if necessary, such as a structural engineer.
