Home Inspection FAQ

 

What is a Home Inspection?

A Home Inspection is a Visual examination of all systems and structural components in the building. It is very important for us to list both assets as well as defects so you, the client, can make an informed decision.

Why should I get a Home Inspection?

Since buying a home is probably the biggest investment you will make, all homes should be inspected prior to final closing. A home inspection gives the buyer an overall view of the condition of the home so you know exactly what you are buying.

Should I be present at the time of inspection?

Our goal at Murphy’s Home Inspection is to offer you the most informed inspection and report. We feel the presence of the buyer is very important. If it is not possible for someone to be available, the summary and report will need to be completely reviewed.

WHAT DOES A MURPHY’S HOME INSPECTION INCLUDE?

We here at Murphy’s Home Inspection strive for the highest level of service and
quality. All homes that we inspect come with a 1-2 page summary that lists both
assets and defects. A complete Home Inspection Report covers the entire home, room by room with digital photos available. Our report writing system is very easy to understand with clear descriptive comments. All reports, summaries, and agreements are available within 24 hours from the time of inspection.

Our report includes but is not limited to:

  • Foundations
  • Roofing & Flashing
  • Exterior Walls & Trim
  • Interior Walls & Trim
  • Windows & Doors
  • Heating & Air Conditioning
  • Plumbing
  • Electrical
  • Attics
  • Garages

How much does it cost for a home inspection?

Our basic rate is $300.00 for all homes up to $300,000 of selling price or 1/10 of 1%. If the price of the home is $350,000, the inspection cost is $350.00.
