At OpenWindow Home Inspections, we are InterNACHI-certified home inspectors with the expertise required to diagnose issues with homes of all shapes and sizes. We provide home inspection reports as well as personal home inspections for attics, drainage, electrical systems, foundations, insulation, mold, plumbing, radon, roofs, and septic systems. Now that you know what we do, you may be wondering who needs our services. Many people need to hire a home inspector, and we will discuss some of them below.
- Buyers- People who are buying a home can benefit from a home inspection because they will have a clear idea of what they are getting into before they officially buy the house they are looking at. If there are severe mold, foundation, or roof problems, a buyer can become aware of these and decide if they want to go through with the transaction or not.
- Sellers- Sellers often need to hire a home inspector, so they can have an easier time selling their home. The last thing they want to do is get very close to selling only to have a buyer back out at the last minute because of problems identified in the home inspection. When sellers get a home inspection ahead of time, there is a smaller chance that a potential buyer will change their mind.
- Real Estate Agents- Real estate agents may hire a home inspector because it helps them do their job better. A home inspection allows real estate agents to provide their clients with peace of mind and important information about a given house.
- Homeowners- Homeowners that are not buying or selling may hire a home inspector if they suspect issues with their home. For instance, if they notice a strange, musty smell, they may ask for a mold inspection rather than a full home inspection.
