Before the inspection
- Confirm the inspection time, access instructions, and who will attend.
- Gather any seller disclosures, repair invoices, and listing notes you already have.
- Write down your biggest concerns so you can compare them to the report later.
During the inspection
- Let the inspector work the property first, then save questions for the walkthrough.
- Focus on safety, water, structure, roof, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing concerns.
- Take note of major limitations so you know where follow-up may still be needed.
After the report arrives
- Read the summary first, then sort items into fix now, specialist review, and later maintenance.
- Use the buyer summary and repair request tools to prepare next conversations.
- Keep the full report and approved findings for contractor bids and move-in planning.
