WHY DO YOU NEED A HOME INSPECTION PROFESSIONAL ?

BRAVEST HOME INSPECTIONS is an unbiased neutral third party. We want you to see the property through the eyes of an Inspection professional and leave having confidence in your decision. We”ll take the STRESS out of the home buying process by showing you any flaws or defects of the home. You will have peace of mind that your decision will be an educated one. You need to know if the Home purchase you are about to make is a Healthy and Safe one for you and your family. Relatives/family friends may be knowledgeable about some aspects of a home, but the purchase of a home should be treated as the most important decision a family will make. And for a Home buyer, the Home Inspection process is one of the most important decisions you can make and hiring the right “PROFESSIONAL” Inspector is critical.                                                                  

WHO SHOULD GET A HOME INSPECTION ?

Buyers, Sellers, Commercial property buyers or lessees of a commercial space. BUYERS who want a professional third party to give them an unbiased review of the property they are looking to purchase. Buyers make sure your investment is a solid one and educate yourself about the property with Bravest Home Inspections.   SELLERS who want to avoid lengthy delays, negotiating again and want to be 100% confident in their asking price. Many sellers are having their homes inspected PRIOR to listing to avoid any last minute surprises, then make any necessary fixes and avoid losing potential sales.      

SHOULD YOU BE AT THE HOME INSPECTION ?

We encourage every client to be at the inspection, walking the property and asking questions. We can explain everything that we are putting into the report and it’s significance. Most items are superficial and cosmetic, but we especially want to point out any large problem areas on site and in person that need to be addressed. We will show you the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. We will also point out the ongoing general maintenance items that the home needs as well as the shut offs of all the major systems.
