Do you think that a Home inspection in Los Angeles is in just for old broken down homes? Did you just build a new home and assume that every thing went perfectly during construction? Now you feel that a complete inspection would be just a waste of money! I hope you are right. But here are a few things you should think about before you decide against an inspection.

1. This is all you really need to know. There has been more than one home built without hooking up the sewer line to the sewer. That means that all the waste from the house would build up under the house and rot instead of being taken away! What a nightmare. Can you imagine telling your friends, “I saved a few hundred on an inspection but now my house is filled with…” Enough said.

2. You are buying a new home and it should be perfect shouldn’t it? You set high standards for yourself in your work and don’t let things slide by that are “good enough” you know you should fix. You also probably expect all the different subcontractors who worked on your house always work as diligently as you do.

A good home inspection of the best new homes will sometimes find mistakes and problems that would have been easily fixed by the builder. But, if the issue doesn’t surface until later then guess who gets to pay for fixing it.

3. But wait, surely the bank and county or state will protect me and make sure everything is well done and up to code, right? Yes and no. In reality the bank only checks that the different stages are completed and not the quality. As for the county, you know they are overworked and stretched thin. They cannot be on site at all the proper times to check work in progress and spot mistakes before they are covered up.

You can see that there are many things that can go wrong with a house even when it is being built by a top notch builder. Equipment can be damaged. Incorrect installation of various materials or simply overlooking the completion of important items can cost a home owner lots of money and frustration down the road when these things should be corrected by the builder for nothing.

A home inspection in Los Angeles can be done during or after construction and is the best way to give yourself complete piece of mind.
