Know What You’re Buying Before You Sign
A home can look perfect on a showing day and still hide a failing roof, an aging furnace or moisture behind a wall. A pre-purchase home inspection is the independent, objective check that happens after your offer is accepted and before you are locked in.
At Mile High Home Inspection, we walk the property from roof to foundation, test what can be tested and explain what we find in plain language. You get a clear report that separates urgent concerns from routine maintenance, so you can decide what to ask the seller for, and what to plan for after move-in.
Whether it is a
condo, a townhome or a single-family house, a buyer’s inspection is the smartest money you spend in the home-buying process.
Thirty Minutes of Showing isn’t a Condition Report.
A showing sells the feeling of a house: light, layout, fresh paint.
It rarely answers the plain questions. What is the roof covering doing? Where does water go when it rains? Is that panel what it should be?
