I recently inspected this brand-new townhouse, and guess what? I found defects.
It’s easy to assume that a newly built home is in perfect condition. After all, everything is brand new, right? Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.
Even new construction can have issues that deserve attention before you close on your home. That’s why I believe a professional home inspection is so important, even when buying a home that’s never been lived in.
After more than 30 years in construction and inspections, I’ve learned that just because something is new doesn’t mean it’s been done right.
Buying a new home is exciting, and you deserve to move in with confidence. An independent home inspection can help identify potential problems while there’s still an opportunity to address them with the builder.
New home? Don’t skip the inspection. You might be surprised at what we find.
