If you’re like most people, a home is probably the largest investment you’ll make in your lifetime. And there is so much risk involved. Many defects can be hidden to the naked eye, electrical problems, plumbing issues, water damage, structural issues, the list goes on and on. Which is why a quality home inspection is one of the most valuable investments you can make.

The cost of a home inspection is very small relative to the cost of a house. Most home inspections cost less than $400 that’s a small price to pay for peace of mind when facing this high-dollar investment. 

How is the Price of a Home Inspection Determined?

Every home inspection company will have its own unique method for determining the cost of your inspection. However, there are considerations that all will take into account. For example, your home inspector will set the price based on a number of common factors like:

• The home’s square footage: Most home inspectors base their fees on the size of the home inclusive of all floors, attics, and porches. And most will have a minimum fee for small homes and those with pier and beam foundations.
• The presence of certain items on your property, for example, a pool, a spa, outbuildings, or a high-pitched roof that may require additional time to walk thoroughly, or the use of specialized equipment like Drones.
• The age of the home or condo: Older homes may take longer to inspect, particularly if the home has undergone extensive renovations, which can lead to complicating factors, like electrical systems.
