There can be problems with any home - from new homes to the bigest most expensive!  Some of the defects are common while others can be unexpected and hard to find.  After inspecting hundreds of homes an inspector developes a "fifth sense" of where the problems are.  Below are some examples of what we find in our inspection, and why you should never consider buying a home, new or re-sale without getting an inspection!
