Here's Why You Should Ask Every Potential Jacksonville Home Inspector for a Sample of Their Report & Why Our Report is Often Imitated But Never Duplicated!
Not all home inspections conducted in the Northeast Florida area are created equal... and before making the final decision to hire your chosen inspector, make sure you grab a copy of their home inspection report first! This is NOT the time to have a poor quality inspection with a low grade report conducted on one of the largest investments of your life. Comparing inspection reports with other inspectors in the area, will allow you to at least know what you can expect for your time and money.
A quality, thorough, inspection performed by an experienced home inspector could prevent you from purchasing a nightmare home... one full of expenses and many repairs - A Money Pit!
The top home inspectors in today’s business do not produce handwritten reports. A professional inspector will provide you with a combination of a checklist and a narrative report. Technology has evolved where you should expect to receive a full report, one with digital photographs included of the issues discovered during the course of the inspection, within 24 hours of the date the inspection was conducted.
Your inspection report should also provide you with a Summary Page including "recommendations" for corrective actions. However, the report should not contain specific repair costs or ways to make the repairs. Professional home inspectors inspect -- they don’t repair! An inspector that makes repairs should always be avoided due to the conflict of interest inherent in that situation.
