Pre-Inspection Checklist
We recommend that
you obtain as much information as is available
concerning a property. This historical
information may include copies of any seller's
disclosures, previous inspection or engineering
reports, reports performed for or by relocation
companies, municipal inspection departments,
lenders, insurers, and appraisers. You should
attempt to determine whether repairs, renovation,
remodeling, additions or other such activities have
taken place at this property.
Property conditions
change with time and use. Since a report is
provided for the specific benefit of our client,
secondary readers of this information should hire a
licensed inspector to perform an inspection to meet
their specific needs and to obtain current
information concerning a property.
To ensure a
complete and thorough inspection, we recommend the following:
-
All utilities
are turned on
-
All pilot
lights are lit
-
All aspects of
the home are accessible. For example:
- Closets
- Attic
- Crawl spaces

Outlets and service panel
