When you're in the process selling your house, the ideal scenario is for someone to find out that something is seriously wrong in it. A home inspection report will outline the major systems within the house, including central air conditioning and heating. It will also include details about the plumbing system inside and electrical systems. It will also provide information on the interior plumbing and electrical systems.
Based on the inspection report the inspector's findings could make you aware of smaller problems. Minor problems won't be fixed in a hurry, but more serious issues could be a deal-breaker. Before you make an offer, a house inspector will help you spot any problems. If the issue is so serious that you are unable to wait for the seller to fix it you should consider hiring a professional home inspector or real estate agent to help make an informed decision.
Although there's no requirement that you must be present at the inspection it is an ideal idea to be observant of the inspector as the process is underway. You can ask questions about the condition and system of the house by being present. You'll also be able to understand what the inspector is examining and the reason why it is crucial. After the inspection, you'll be in understanding the written report. It's a good idea hire an inspector with a strong reputation and a high level of experience and training.
