Tips to Prepare for Your Inspection

Help us help you — a little preparation goes a long way

Ensure Access

Make sure all areas are accessible — attic, basement, crawl spaces, electrical panels, and all rooms.

Utilities On

All utilities (gas, electric, water) should be turned on so we can test all systems.

Be Present

We strongly encourage you to attend. You'll learn a lot about your home and can ask questions in real time.
