1. ASK a trusted Real Estate Agent, Lender, or your Better Business Bureau for a referral.
2. HIRE an experienced professional who belongs to the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) and/or the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors.
3. BE SURE the Inspector has certification training and is licensed and also has insurance for general liability, errors, and omissions.
4. ASK for a sample of the Inspection Report to make sure it covers everything important to you.
5. A HOME INSPECTION should take about 2.5 hours or more and yield a written, thorough Report that indicates defects, recommendations, and includes photos.
6. ASK yourself, are they answering all of my questions? Are they explaining things clearly? You should attend the Inspection and let the Inspector point out to you items of concern.
