The inspection is a very important step in your buying process since it confirms legally that the home has been completed to your satisfaction in agreement with your contract. Allow enough time for a thorough inspection of your new home and a comprehensive orientation. This can take several hours. It’s important to focus all of your attention on your inspection. For this reason, it is best if friends, relatives, children and pets see your home at another time.
