Do I Need a Home
Inspection?
Most homebuyers lack the knowledge and skill to properly
conduct home inspections. State
licensed home Inspectors typically evaluate structural components (floors,
walls, roofs, chimneys, foundations, etc.) mechanical systems (plumbing,
electrical, heating/air conditioning, installed appliances) and other major
components of the property.

Do I Need a Home Warranty?
Home warranties provide both buyer and seller protection
against unexpected breakdown and repair due to normal wear and tear. The Service Agreement does not cover
everything and a buyer/seller should carefully read what protection is offered
by the Home Warranty Provider. Sellers
sometime offer Home Warranties to provide competitive advantage over homes
without a warranty.
