Pre-Purchase or Buyer’s Inspection

Although not our only service, we are daily and primarily engaged in providing a pre-purchase inspection to many buyers. It is our goal to inspect your future home, and report to you clearly and concisely using color photos for clarity, as needed. In general, we want you to know what we know when we inspect your property. It is the manner and methods we use to inspect and report that we feel set our services high above any others you could choose.

Structural Inspection

Structural inspection is often a confusing term used by relocation companies and mortgage lenders. On some occasions, the term is used when in fact, a full home inspection is being requested. A structural inspection in Eagle Eye Home Inspections company  terminology refers to an evaluation of the visible load-bearing members of a building.  This is often requested by a lender following a Wood Destroying Termite Report (WDIR or “termite inspection”) that has listed a previous or present infestation or high moisture content of the wooden structural members. This has been a “free” service provided for our clients if we have previously inspected the property. Not all home inspectors provide this service and many add an additional charge when they do.

Pre-Listing Inspection

If you want to sell your property for the best price, and peace of mind then, a pre-listing inspection is for you. Nothing is more frustrating than to receive a contract for sale with a contingent of a satisfactory home inspection, and the inspection disclose a defect that was not disclosed  to the buyer and the buyer backs out of the contract.  We have often felt great empathy for sellers who could have saved a sale if they had only had a “pre-listing” inspection that would have disclosed the damaged roof or floor frame damage to them prior to accepting the offer. Many sellers would like to make the repairs and complete the sale but often cannot do so and sell the property at the “agreed” price. It is only then that they wish they had only known about the defect earlier.

This frustration can be prevented by having us inspect your home before  you list the home with a Realtor®  or sell the home yourself. Not only will you receive a full home inspection and report, we will also offer suggestions for improvement and answer questions that may help you sell your home faster. You will have the option of making corrections to your home, and having a disclosure to give the buyer and can enter into a contract for sale knowing that any “major”, visible defects are known, repaired or disclosed.

You will have a licensed, professional home inspector and contractor working for you as a consultant during the construction of your home.

Many pitfalls in custom building start in the beginning. If you are not able to take the time off from your job during the construction period and have contracting expertise, do not try building the home yourself. In most instances you will not save money and the quality will not be in the final product. Choose a professional licensed Contractor to build your home.
