Home Inspections are BACK — Episode 1

Home inspections are back!  During the past year and a half, buyers who wanted to win a home purchase were waiving home inspections and taking a chance that there would be nothing seriously wrong with the home they were purchasing.

With the market shifting towards favoring homebuyers, those important inspections are back.  I spoke to Keith who recently inspected a home for our buyers to explain the process.

“I just looked at the main electrical panel and this one’s at capacity.  They added a sub panel here so you couldn’t add any more to this, but you could add on to the one that’s located in the basement.

When I look at panels, the biggest thing for me is just the wiring that it’s copper and not aluminum. That’s a big one. And, that the breakers are correctly installed with no double taps and they’re correctly sized.

Yeah, this one looks pretty good!”
