“Know What You’re Getting Into, Before You Get into it!”

Our Services

Home Buyer's Inspection

Pre-Purchase inspections, also known as a Home Buyers inspection helps to ensure that the home of your dreams is in the condition you expect. Having knowledge of the property condition before purchase allows for an informed buying decision and reduces the risk of unforeseen costly issues.


Pre-Purchase inspection reports can also be used as a bargaining chip at the offer table. Issues that may incur substantial costs can be used as leverage in the negotiation process.


Example: The listing may note that the roof is "new", but was the roof installed properly; is there signs of moisture in the attic?

Post Home Buyer's Inspection

In some instances, while not ideal, it is not always possible to have an inspection performed prior to purchase. This doesn’t mean that you should not know of any issues that need be addressed to protect you in the long term and ensure your home is a safe place. Post Purchase inspection services do just that and ensure buyers know their home. Post inspection services are completed in the same manor as a pre-inspection and include a full comprehensive report, list of any defects along with a suggested time frame for any needed repairs.

Pre-Listing Inspection

Home inspections are a necessity for home buyers. Pre-Listing inspections help the home seller gain an advantage in the selling process. Home owners who have knowledge of any deficiencies will have the ability to correct problems before the home buyer finds them. In doing so, the seller may increase the value of the property and reduce the time on the market. These inspections are ideal for full transparency between both buyer and seller and provide a high level of consumer protection.


It is proven that homes with pre-listing inspection reports made available to potential buyers sell more quickly and with less hassle.

Walk-Through Inspections

Take advantage of the opportunity to have an inspector come along during a viewing of a prospective property and answer questions and field concerns that home buyers may have while a visual inspection is performed. Given the obvious time constraints, this is not a "formal" inspection involving an official report and is offered FOR FREE!


This is a great opportunity to learn about the property before offers with a Professional Home Consultant.

What Inspectors do

Every Home Inspector has their own routine, various tools and different approaches to inspecting houses. Hill Top Home Inspections includes the latest in thermal imaging and moisture detection technology included at no extra cost.

Hill Top Home Inspections adheres to the “Standards” defined by our professional association. These associations define the “scope”, ethics and standards in which we follow at each inspection.  These standards outline what we must describe and report on, defect or not. Example: Roof covering material, or location of the main water shut-off. We are not required to make repairs or adjustments to any system, nor are we required to determine the cause of any deficiency or condition during the inspection. Home Inspections are defined as a “visual, non-invasive examination of ‘readily accessible’ components of the house.” We are required to document limitations where applicable. i.e. Snow-covered roofs or inaccessible attic spaces. Home Inspectors cannot report on “latent”, or hidden conditions.


Home Inspectors are “generalists”, not electricians, plumbers, Structural engineers, general contractors, gas fitters, HVAC technicians, roofers, or the like. We have the necessary training and education to understand the fundamentals of installed systems within the home and to identify details, defects and conditions therein.


A good Home Inspector is unbiased and always keeps the best interest of their clients top of mind.

 

Home Inspections are about SAFETY and EDUCATION, not about highlighting the negatives. I help buyers or sellers make an INFORMED DECISION through a positive and resourceful experience.
