Should You Get a Home Inspection on New Construction?

Many buyers assume new homes are perfect. Unfortunately, that is rarely the case.

Builders Make Mistakes

Subcontractors move fast, and things get missed. We often find:

  • Missing insulation
  • Improperly installed flashing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • unconnected ducts

Municipal Inspections Are Not Enough

County inspectors spend about 15 minutes per home. We spend 3 hours.

Verdict: Always get an independent inspection.
