We are your unbiased home consultant. Tangible: all of our inspections include our 360\u00b0 Home Buyer SnapShot.

There are no requirements for buyers to make repairs, just like there are no requirements for sellers to have to make repairs. Again, we act like a homebuyer advisor, so that agents and clients understand the condition of the house, which helps them determine what and whether they are going to negotiate. Any one of us can go out and buy any house we like in any condition. There\u2019s no rules. There\u2019s no rule saying the buyer has to fix everything up, and there\u2019s no rule saying that the seller needs to fix everything the inspector might find. I purpose of a home inspection is to help the buyer know exactly what they are getting themselves into and beyond that (long after the inspector is gone) it\u2019s really just a discussion and negotiation between the buyer and the selling party. Some buyers are looking for a house that is in perfect condition and some sellers are not willing to negotiate any repairs at all. As an inspection company, we understand that it is not our role to participate in the negotiation, but only to describe the house as we find it and allow the parties to have their own negotiations based on what\u2019s important to them.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"How We’re Different Than Other Home Inspection Businesses","item":"https:\/\/homeinspectionsovercoffee.com\/we-haven-t-bought-a-house-in-years-what-makes-you-guys-different-from-everyone-else\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
