Home inspections can help avoid bad property investments and sell good ones, so it’s important to be present and ask questions whenever one is scheduled. I.C. IT Home Inspection in San Antonio, TX, recommends being prepared before your home inspection with a list of questions.

Not sure what to ask? Their experts believe these are three of the most important questions you should ask during a property inspection.

What Is Your Training and Experience?

Ideally, home inspectors should be properly licensed and willing to show their licenses to you. The licensed inspector with I.C. IT Home Inspection has seen many problems that homeowners encounter and was trained at Champions School of Real Estate in San Antonio, TX.

Be Honest: How Bad Is It?

Home inspectors rely on facts and will give you a lot of information that might be hard to sort through at first. It’s perfectly acceptable to ask them for a straightforward assessment. If they point out something that needs fixing, ask them, “How big of a deal is that?” It’s a good way to sort through industry language you might not understand.

If This Was a Property You Were Considering, Would You Buy It?

A home inspection company will point out every flaw they see, which might feel overwhelming. Keep in mind many noted repairs, replacements, and maintenance suggestions will equal small fixes or expenses, but it only takes one large repair to make a deal worth walking away from. Before you leave, ask your inspector what repairs he would fix and get an idea of how important each notation is.

I.C. IT Home Inspection’s team will explain all of their findings before they leave and will be happy to answer these questions. Call (210) 473-5212 or visit their website for more information.
