Pre-Purchase Home Inspection

The biggest investment that most people make is the purchase of a residential property. Negotiating specific costs and terms of sale is facilitated by a comprehensive home inspection and inspection report that describes the homes condition. McCabe Inspections will reveal the house to you and identify maintenance items and defects that affect the livability of the house as well as its value. An inspection report with digital images, diagrams, definitions, descriptions, and a prioritized summary is sent via e-mail within 48hrs. of every Pre-Purchase Home Inspection.
