Inspection
Services
Buying a home? Your offer has been accepted and your financing is in place. As mentioned in the ‘Making the Offer’ section of the “Buying a Home in Canada” guide found on the CMHC Website, it’s wise to make your purchase conditional on the home passing of a professional home inspection. Inch by Inch Inspections will make a detailed inspection of the property you are buying, making use of the newest technology to do so. Thermography, for example, uses infrared imaging to measure and see thermal energy 
within an object or area (i.e., mold). This technology is a great option if you are currently selling, thinking of selling, or buying a piece of real estate.
When you receive the Inch by Inch Inspections home inspection report, you and your real estate agent will have the opportunity to discuss how required repairs, if any, may affect the sale price that was agreed upon. Call on Inch by Inch Inspections for your home inspection today! What you can expect is a friendly, intelligent professional to provide you with a comprehensive report based on the following inspection items: exterior, interior, plumbing, electrical, heating, cooling, roofing & attic. Most of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about.
Anything in these categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property (especially in categories 2 and 4).
A pre-purchase home inspection is simply part of the home-buying process. A pre-purchase home inspection is an important qualifier for the homebuyer to be aware of the condition of the home and any potential problems.
Without question, the biggest lifetime investment for most people is the purchase of a home. And for the most part, prospective buyers always insisted on a pre-purchase home inspection as a condition of the sale. Today, with extremely hot real estate markets 
nationwide, things have really changed.
What hasn’t changed is the essentiality of a pre-purchase home inspection. For those who may have decided against a pre-purchase home inspection (because of market conditions), the fallout may have already taken a toll. At the very minimum, getting an inspection is far better than not.
Today, whether a home inspection is conditional or not, it’s a valuable asset for any homeowner. Indeed, both new homebuyers and experienced homebuyers can benefit from the information. What’s most important, however, is to contract an inspection services company that is reputable.
A good home inspection company will have some relevant professional standing, appropriate insurance coverage, and an assurance of customer satisfaction with the work to be performed. For the property owner, this is the time to do proper homework and research when choosing.

A pre-purchase home inspection incorporates all of the systems and subsystems in a home. The homebuyer is therefore made aware of performance assets and performance deficiencies. This provides important data about problems and issues that may not be obvious or apparent. As such, identifying potential troubles BEFORE a purchase can make a big difference going forward.
With a pre-listing home inspection, a home seller can be apprised of performance issues well in advance. At the same time, performance merits can be highlighted to enhance the selling features. A professional pre-sale inspection can also prevent any surprises, particularly if a home seller believes the house to be in good condition. Surprises can potentially put a sale transaction at risk.
Not often thought about, a condominium inspection is a good idea, whether the condo is new or previously owned. Newly built condos are protected to a certain extent by industry programs like the Ontario New Home Warranty. However, buyers would be wise to scrutinize the condo itself, the common areas, and the “shared elements”. It’s always better to be safe rather than sorry.
