When A Home Inspection Ends Up Saving You Money
A home inspection in Cleveland ended up saving this home buyer money. This is one reason a home inspection is important when buying a new home. How can you know the price of the home you are hoping to buy is appropriate considering its condition? How can a solid purchase decision be made without all the information? A home inspection can provide you with the detailed information you need so that you can plan for repairs and expenses in the future; possibly even helping you negotiate the price of your new home.
Positive: ValueI appreciated the thoroughness of the inspection. I especially liked having the photos to document the items that would need immediate attention. Also the photos will be helpful in the future when I need to identify things such as shut-off valves. Although Mike was encouraging by assuring me that most items would be simple to address, there was also a somewhat high cost associated. I was able to get the sellers to give me a break on the price thanks to Mike's assessments.

Inspections Can Put Money In Your Pockets
This 5 star home inspection review from a Cleveland Home buyer is a great example of how you can actually save money with a home inspection. Mike Vakos, lead inspector and owner of Tri-County Inspections gave this customer a detailed report of the inspection of her new home. She really appreciated the pictures included in the report, which added to its practicality and made it easy to understand. Mike was transparent about all the issues that would need to be addressed after the inspection. When counting the costs for all the repairs to be made, the home buyer was the able to use the report to negotiate the selling price of the home and ultimately reduce the price of the home. Any home will eventually need repairs over time; but when buying a new home it's important to know what those potential costs are going to be upfront.
Some situations may require a much more detailed inspection that would include special tests like: Radon Testing, Mold testing, or lead testing. Tri-County Inspections are equipped to do those tests for you, offering a comprehensive inspection to provide the most information on your potential new home.
