Choosing the Right Home Inspection Daphne AL Services

Buying a home in Daphne AL?  It’s probably the most expensive purchase you’ll ever make. This is no time to shop for a cheap inspection. The cost of a home inspection is very small relative to the value of the home being inspected.  The additional cost of hiring an InterNACHI-Certified Professional Inspector® is almost insignificant.  

You have recently been crunching the numbers, negotiating offers, adding up closing costs, shopping for mortgages, and trying to get the best deals.  Don’t stop now.  Don’t let your real estate agent, a “patty-cake” inspector, or anyone else talk you into skimping here.  InterNACHI-certified inspectors  perform the best inspections by far. 
 
InterNACHI-certified inspectors earn their fees many times over.  They do more, they deserve more, and — yes — they generally charge a little more. Do yourself a favor… and pay a little more for the quality inspection you deserve.
 

The licensing of home inspectors only sets a minimum standard.  Much like being up to code, any less would be illegal.  Imaginary people, children, psychics (who claim to “sense” if a house is OK) and even pets can theoretically be home inspectors.  InterNACHI, the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, front-ends its membership requirements.

  • have to pass InterNACHI’s Online Inspector Examination, and re-take and pass it every three years.
  • have to complete InterNACHI’s online Code of Ethics Course.
  • have to take InterNACHI’s online Standards of Practice Course.

  • substantially adhere to InterNACHI’s Standards of Practice.
  • abide by InterNACHI’s Code of Ethics.
  • have to submit four mock inspection reports to InterNACHI’s Report Review Committee before performing their first paid home inspection for a client if the candidate has never performed a fee-paid home inspection previously.
  • have to carry E&O Insurance. (if their state requires it)
  • have access to a real estate agent Hold-Harmless Clause.
  • within the first year of membership, have to successfully pass the following  accredited courses and exams:
    • InterNACHI’s “Safe Practices for the Home Inspector” course,
