What does your inspectioncover?

The inspector should ensurethat their inspection and reportwill meet all applicable require-ments in your state and will com-ply with a well-recognized stan-dard of practice and code ofethics. You should be able torequest and see a copy of theseitems ahead of time and ask anyquestions you may have. If thereare any areas you want to makesure are inspected, be sure toidentify them upfront.

How long have you beenpracticing in the home inspec-tion profession and how manyinspections have you complet-ed?

The inspector should be ableto provide his or her history in

the profession and perhaps evena few names as referrals. Newerinspectors can be very qualified,and many work with a partner orhave access to more experiencedinspectors to assist them in theinspection.

Are you specifically experi-enced in residential inspec-tion?

Related experience in con-struction or engineering is help-ful, but is no substitute for train-ing and experience in the uniquediscipline of home inspection.

How long will the inspectiontake?

The average on-site inspectiontime for a single inspector is twoto three hours for a typical single-family house; anything signifi-cantly less may not be enough

time to perform a thoroughinspection.

How much will it cost?Costs vary dramatically,

depending on the region, size andage of the house, scope of servicesand other factors. A typical rangemight be $300-$500, but considerthe value of the home inspectionin terms of the investment beingmade.

What type of inspectionreport do you provide and howlong will it take to receive thereport?

Ask to see samples and deter-mine whether or not you canunderstand the inspector'sreporting style and if the timeparameters fulfill your needs.Most inspectors provide their fullreport within 24 hours of the

inspection.Will I be able to attend the

inspection?This is a valuable educational

opportunity, and an inspector'srefusal to allow this should raise ared flag. Never pass up this oppor-tunity to see your prospectivehome through the eyes of anexpert.

Do you maintain member-ship in a professional homeinspector association?

There are many state andnational associations for homeinspectors. Request to see theirmembership ID, and performwhatever due diligence you deemappropriate.
