Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some answers to commonly asked questions about home inspections and what you should expect when you get a
home inspection. Please feel free to contact us if you have further questions.
CAN A HOUSE FAIL A HOME INSPECTION?
No. A professional home inspection is an examination of the current condition
of your home. It is not an appraisal, which determines market value, or a municipal inspection, which
verifies compliance to local codes and standards. A home inspector will not pass or fail a house. A
home inspection describes the physical condition of a property and indicates what may need repair or
replacement. The information provided is to allow the potential buyer to make an informed decision
about moving forward with the transaction.
