Certified Home Inspection

Information may not be reliable

Welcome to Certified Home Inspections

Buying or selling a home can be a grueling task, without having to worry about the condition the subject property is in.If youre selling a home, the inspection may uncover issues unbeknownst to you, and lead to costly repairs, and/or re-negotiation of the contract price, even AFTER you have agreed to the lowest price you are willing to sell for.For buyers, the home you have agreed to purchase is foreign to you, and the condition and serviceability of the home and largely unknown.

We service many areas! Our service area includes; Morgantown in Monongalia County, Fairmont in Marion County, Clarksburg and Bridgeport in Harrison County, Grafton in Taylor County, and Kingwood, Masontown, and Reedsville in Preston County.

Not only will your inspector provide information about the home, any present issues, defects, and safety concerns, but he will also familiarize you with the home, pointing out gas, oil, water, and electrical disconnects.Other items of interest may concern evidence of previous issues, such as moisture intrusion. This information will better prepare you in deciding to terminate or consummate the contract.

The cost of the home inspection rarely exceeds the monetary amount of repairs found, thus offsetting the fees incurred. For this reason, there is no dispute that a home inspection should be performed on every home, existing or new. A seasoned, well-trained home inspector can help to prevent you from entering into a money pit, or confirm you suspicions that the home is in good condition. Your inspector is your eyes, ears, and nose, providing your first line of defense against making a bad decision. Although your inspector cannot provide exact costs for repairs, we will provide estimated price ranges, as well as explain how easy or hard a problem may be to correct or repair.

Manufactured Home Foundation Certifications

If you are selling or buying a manufactured home, then most likely a foundation certification will be required. For all FHA and VA loans, an engineer's foundation certification is required that states that the home is placed on a permanent foundation that complies with the "HUD Permament Foundation Guide for Manufatured Homes", dated 1996 by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

We have partnered with the engineers at Foundation Certifications to provide a turn-key foundation certification service to you. You may place your order online by going to http://www.FoundationCerts.com/order.
