You don’t need to be buying or selling a home in order to have a home inspection done. Home Inspectors MN also offers Maintenance Inspections for homeowners who are happy where they live and want to make sure their home is in good working order. We have clients who have been in their homes for 5, 10, and even 50 years, and want our Minnesota Home Maintenance Inspections because either they closed without an inspection contingency or didn’t even have a home inspection done. The great thing about a homeowner-initiated maintenance inspection is that we don’t have limited boundaries, such as when we do a transaction-related inspection, because the owner has the ultimate say. Therefore, we are free to investigate deeper into problem areas, while not wasting time with areas that have no issues.
Homeowner Maintenance Inspections in Minnesota
Homeownership has its ups and downs, and the financial responsibilities that come with it can be quite the blow to the pocketbook. Many times things deteriorate right before a homeowner’s eyes, but whether they become accustomed to it or just don’t know what they’re seeing, they don’t act preemptively. And then when big problems do occur, it feels like being blindsided. A homeowner’s maintenance inspection can help stave off the surprise of unexpected repairs by looking for problems before they become such. Owning a home doesn’t make someone an expert on it, and that’s where we come in. We can answer any questions, simple or complex. And because we are there to see your concerns first-hand, our recommendations aren’t just a guessing game.
Help Prioritize Home Upgrades
Homeownership comes with many responsibilities. If it isn’t the yard, it’s the basement, or the furnace, or the roof. The list could go on, but there’s no need. You get the idea and most likely know what we’re talking about. Our Home Maintenance Inspections can help you budget for soon-to-be problems by pointing out areas that will need upgrades before long. We can list them for you and describe them to you in detail. Some possible examples include: laundry sink hookups that need replacement, areas where mold will most likely develop, adding insulation to an attic to prevent ice dams and energy waste, how many years a roof likely has left, drainage issues, etc. If you have an expected timetable for necessary upgrades you can be more prepared for the road ahead.
Entire Home Inspection or Single Item Inspection
We can complete an entire home inspection, where we address your concerns and evaluate the whole of your property. And we also offer single issue inspections. If you are having a problem you just can’t seem to correct or understand, we can offer troubleshooting advice to get you moving towards a productive resolution. You are the homeowner, so we let you decide what areas need to be addressed, or if you want us take the lead.
Regardless of your home’s age, an inspection can ensure that your biggest investment is in good standing. Contact Home Inspectors MN for a Minnesota Home Maintenance Inspection today at (763) 607-3064.
