Home Inspection Books, Forms, and Training

A home inspector performs a very valuable and important service. Professional home inspectors examine existing homes using professional standards as a measure to accurately report their condition to parties involved in the real estate transaction.

The home inspector does not evaluate the home for cost or value, but reports, in writing, the condition of the home's systems as they appear and operate at the time of the inspection. Understanding the background and procedures of home inspection can help you identify problems before they happen.
