Purchasing a brand new home for you and your family can be one of the most exciting times of your life. As times goes by, the pride of home ownership should continue as you grow into your new residence. Unfortunately, in the home construction industry, many times a new house does not necessarily mean a sound house. Lets face the facts, there is no such thing as a one hundred percent perfectly constructed home. The same holds true for cars, furniture and just about everything else made or assembled by man. In home construction there are often minor, unnoticeable defects that may never turn into major issues.. On the other hand, there are sometimes major defects which are also unnoticeable to the average person. Defects that are a problem now and can cause major headaches in the future if not corrected.
More than ever, new home builders are cutting corners to save time and money so they can move on to the next house and next community. Having a new home inspection by a professional home inspector is a small investment to make in order to protect, perhaps, one of the biggest purchases of your life.
When having a new home inspection done, avoid the home inspector referred from a the builder agent or real estate agent involved in your home purchase. Instead, hire your own home inspector that is working for you and your best interests.
Have your new home inspected before the drywall or interior walls and outside siding are put up. This will allow your inspector to check the housewrap installation, window flashing, door framing, missing straps, connectors, other
In addition to having your new home inspected before it is completed, it is recommended that you have the home inspected about four to six weeks before the home warranty expires. You will have both in writing and dated, your home inspection report. If the house is perfect you will have piece of mind for many years to come. If it is not, you should send a copy of your inspection report via registered mail to the builder and follow up daily to insure these problems are corrected. If the builder does not correct problems under warranty, your home inspection report will serve as a valuable item should you need to take additional action.
