For a home buyer, buying a home is more than likely the biggest investment you will make in your life. It's best to make a wise decision after looking at all of the facts before you buy. This will help you to avoid expensive repairs as well as any potential disputes during the transfer. After having a property inspection, you will have a better understanding of the proposed property and you will be empowered to make a confident and wise decision.
As a home owner, an independent property inspection may identify problems early and preventative measures can be undertaken that will prevent costly future repairs.
Home sellers may also decide to have a home inspection before putting the home on the market in order to make repairs that will put the house in a better selling condition. By showing the report to interested buyers, the sellers show good intent and disclosure.
Of course, the inspection report also acts as a negotiating tool for all involved.
The question should rather be, "Why not have a property inspection?"
