When you buy a home it is a good idea to have an inspection to determine what if any other costs you may have after the sale. Not all inspectors are the same. Some might miss what others find.It's the human factor. A full home inspection depending on the size of the home can vary in cost but usually in the few hundred dollar range. Some home buyers are under tight budget and would like to think that the home is fine from what they see. A much easier route would be to have a four point inpsection. Insurance companies use these to determine several things. Four point inspections are less involved but cover four main areas that could end up costing you big time in the future. Roof,Electrical,Plumbing and HVAC. These componets of the home are inspected for age,life expectancy,damages ,leaks,improper installations and many more potential issues that are usually easily corrected if found early, and typically cost around 100.00. At the very least a buyer should have this type of inspection. Some insurance companies require this on a home that is 25 years or older. Simple peace of mind that won't break you.
