Different Types Of Home Inspections Explained

6 Types of Home Inspections

Although there are many different types of home inspections that sometimes need to be completed, the types of home inspections that often occur in connection with real-estate transactions such as buying or selling a home are generally much more narrow. Knowing the difference between these types of home inspections and what they do and do not cover can ensure that buyers and sellers alike have the knowledge they need to make informed decisions.

  • 1 - Buyers Home Inspection

    A Buyers Home Inspection is a visual examination of the home’s major structure, systems and components that are visible and safely accessible.

  • 2 - Pre-Listing Home Inspection

    Selling your home? You want a Pre-Listing Home Inspection. Our pre-listing inspection helps reveal potential problems with your home that could delay or void the sale completely.

  • 3 - New Construction Pre-Closing Inspection

    A New Construction Pre-Closing Inspection gives you the opportunity to create a punch-list of items that need to be fixed prior to closing.

  • 4 - One-Year New Construction Warranty Inspection

    A One-Year New Construction Warranty Inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of the interior and exterior of your new home and its major systems and components before your builder’s warranty expires.

  • 5 - Maintenance Home Inspection

    A Maintenance Home Inspection is essentially the same as an inspection you get when purchasing a home. You don’t have to be selling or buying your home to get it inspected. Contact KEY Home Review, a Home Maintenance & Repair inspection company focused solely on the health of your home, for regular home maintenance inspections.

  • 6 - Walk & Talk Consultation
