Your home inspection is a visual observation and evaluation of the condition of the house, condo or co-op which will assist you in analyzing the purchase or the sale price of the property.  A proper comprehensive property inspection require an understanding of a home’s many interconnecting systems.   Houses and their systems and the problems that are found are usually simple enough to detect by touch and visual observations, and although we love and use high tech tools and gadgets as much as anyone, and as useful as they can sometimes be, the most valuable tools are knowledge, experience, and a good working flashlight. Tools often confirm what we already know or suspect and are useful in helping clients understand the problem.
