The main benefit of conducting home inspections is to ensure the home does not have any major deficiencies. It’s almost a guarantee that a home inspector will find issues with every home.
Some of the issues resulting from a home inspection are minor and others can be major, such as structural issues. Radon and wood-destroying insect inspections are also commonly performed, as well as testing of the septic system and well water quality/flow rate if applicable.
Should any major issues be found during your inspection, you can ask the seller to fix the problem, renegotiate the asking price, or ask the seller to contribute a portion of the cost to fix the problem that you will take care of after closing
