What to Do Before, During and After a Home Inspection

Before the Inspection:

  • Time: A home inspection is NOT required but definitely recommended before you purchase a home. It can take 2-6 hours depending on the size of the property.

  • Cost: Before getting a home inspection, research the cost. Most inspections will cost between $300-$600. The price depends on the size of the home and the inspector’s rates, as well as what is inspected (e.g. add-ons like chimney, radon, septic, etc.).
