Hi there! Today I would like to talk to you about home inspections. Are you a realtor who needs or is looking for a home inspector?  Well I would like to say that you have found what your looking for. In my opinion a contractor is the best home inspector you could possibly ask for. All perspective home buyers and realtors should look at using Class A Licensed Contractors’ for all their home inspection needs. The reason I say this is because anyone can print a business card that says they are a “home inspector“. There are courses available to become a home inspector, but they are not required to become a licensed contractor. Given the environment of the housing market, are you really sure you can trust who you are dealing with and what you are buying? Maybe you were told the inspector was trained or maybe a home inspector said he/she was trained. Trained to do what exactly? That’s the real question you should be asking? You need to ask this person a few thinks like… have you ever worked in construction, do you know the building codes? What if repairs need to be made, does this person know the “true” costs for those repairs? Well, I think not. Yea sure they may have an idea and blow a bunch of smoke to make it sound good. But if you had a Class A Contractor working on your side, then that person is going to be able to tell you the “true” cost of repairs and possibly give you a verbal estimate to have the repairs completed.  My husband and I recommend that you get at least 3 estimates and choose the one that is right for you, because using a reputable contractor is the safe route to take. A Class A licensed contractor will  know the in’s and outs of a house better than a person who has never held a construction job. Plus you will get the added benefit of looking up their License with the State to verify their license status. Also, in the State of Virginia all licensed Contractors need to have insurance, this should put your mind at ease with the person you are dealing with.
