In our experience here at Towne & Country Property Inspections, many people assume they don’t need home inspection services if the home they plan to buy is newly built. After all, if the building is new, it can’t have had time to develop problems yet, right? Unfortunately, this is not the case. Although new construction homes won’t have problems due to age, they can still have serious flaws, so we encourage you to schedule an inspection before you commit to buying one.
In this article, we’ll provide a few reasons why we recommend using our new construction home inspection services.
- Municipal Building Inspection May Be Insufficient – When new homes are completed, they are inspected by local building code inspectors to make sure they comply with the local regulations. However, these standards are only minimum safety requirements—just because a home meets this standard doesn’t mean it’s built to last. Because of this, we encourage you to schedule a new construction home inspection to get a more accurate assessment of the home’s quality.
- New Construction Inspection is More Comprehensive – Another reason to use our new construction home inspection services is because our inspections are more comprehensive. We look at every part of the home, and we can examine it at various points throughout its construction to make sure the builders are following best practices.
- Our Inspectors Check for Quality Results – Lastly, we encourage you to use our new construction home inspection services because we will assess the quality of the builders’ work. We’ll make sure the construction team didn’t cut corners, so you can feel confident in the quality and durability of the property.
