How long does a home inspection take?
Most home inspections take between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size, age, and condition of the property. Larger or older homes may take longer, while smaller homes can often be completed more quickly. I always take the time needed to be thorough so nothing important is overlooked.
Do I need to attend the home inspection?
You’re welcome to attend, but it’s not required. Many clients prefer to come at the end of the inspection so I can walk them through the major findings in person. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions without having to wait for the report.
A friendly note: To keep the inspection efficient and distraction-free, I kindly ask that only essential decision-makers attend and that you allow me to move through the home without being followed the entire time. This ensures I can stay focused and deliver the most accurate results for you.
What does a home inspection include?
Your inspection covers all the major systems of the home, including:
When will I get my inspection report?
You’ll receive a clear, detailed, and color-coded digital report the same day as your inspection. The report includes photos, easy to understand explanations, and recommendations so you know exactly what matters most.
How much does a home inspection cost in Mandeville or New Orleans?
Inspection pricing varies based off several favors, but overall is centered around the size, age, and condition of the home. Most inspections in the Mandeville, New Orleans, and Northshore area fall within a standard range. Contact me for a quick quote and I’ll give you a clear, upfront price with no hidden fees.
Do I need an inspection on a new home?
Yes. Even new homes can have construction defects or oversights. A new construction or builder’s warranty inspection ensures any issues are found while they’re still covered, saving you money and headaches later.
Can sellers benefit from an inspection too?
Absolutely. A pre-listing inspection helps you uncover and fix issues before putting your home on the market. This builds buyer confidence, prevents surprises during negotiations, and often helps your home sell faster.
