BENEFITS OF A HOME INSPECTION
For new homebuyers, homeowner's maintenance, insurance and liability, and sellers.
Obtaining a home inspection from a third-party Certified Professional Inspector (CPI) is critical when evaluating property to be sold, bought, insured, or altered. A thorough inspection from a trained professional may help identify issues impact the value, efficiency, and safety of the property.
An appointment with Pryce Home Inspections will provide you with:
-
A Professional Trustworthy Evaluation- Home inspectors in CA are not legally required to go through training or certification, meaning that not all home inspections hold the same value. Pryce Home Inspections is owned and operated by a trained CPI through InterNACHI Home Inspection services ID#21020610.
-
Unbiased Inspection Reports- Pryce Home Inspections is a third-party service that does not offer contracting services. This means you can trust that your report is unbiased - we will never add something onto the report with the aim of selling you an extra service.
-
An Assessment of the Property- A CPI will run through a top to bottom visual evaluation of the property. The inspection covers plumbing, roofing, HVAC, electrical systems, and attics/crawlspaces, insulation, and overall condition. The evaluation typically lasts around 2 hours depending on the size of the home.
-
Personalized Service- An in-person walkthrough of any issues found on the property will be offered to the client at the conclusion of the inspection to facilitate proper understanding of what will appear on the report.
-
A Detailed Inspection Report- Within 24 hours of the inspection, a full report will be emailed to you complete with photo documentation.
-
Recommendations for Optimization- Knowledge is power. A Home Inspection can be more useful than you might think! It is a valuable service at any point of the homeowner's journey, not just the beginning or end. It is particularly useful:
-If you are looking to buy a new home, an inspection report at its best can steer you away from saddling yourself with a money-pit.
-If you have been quoted large repairs in the name of safety and stability that you would like verified.
-If you are simply a homeowner looking to optimize the efficiency of your house, an appointment with Pryce Home Inspections can immediately detect energy loss through thermal imaging technology and a visual inspection of the ventilation systems, saving you hundreds of dollars yearly on energy bills! Also, ask about the Home Energy Audit now available!
-To evaluate your property for insurance purposes and protection from liability during fire damage, water damage, or construction projects on your premises, a detailed home inspection report with documented photographs can be the difference between coverage or lack thereof.
-If you’re looking to sell your home, a CPI will be able to identify the issues that will come up in a home sale that need to be addressed versus those that will only show up as problems down the road.
-
Unparalleled Value- Using new technology and low-overhead, Pryce Home Inspections aims to offer exceptional service at a reasonable price. With the use of thermal cameras, an instant and precise temperature read is given, helping to identify water damage and improper insulation. The correction of these energy inefficiencies may offset the cost of your home inspection within the first year alone! For that reason, many homeowners opt to schedule a yearly standing appointment.
