When you are buying Metro Detroit Real Estate you need a home inspection. It is that simple. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. A quality home inspector will save you money. They can point out items that many Metro Detroit first time home buyers would never see. Even experienced home buyers miss many problems that an experienced home inspector will find.
It's good to have an extra pair of eyes.
When you bottom line your Michigan purchase agreement you have a specified amount of time to complete a home inspection. It is in your best interest to schedule the home inspection as soon as possible. Everything hinges on the home inspection.
Your mortgage person doesn't want to order the appraisal until the house inspection passes. There is no reason to spend money on an appraisal until the house passes inspection. So the longer the home inspection takes to complete the longer it will take the mortgage process to complete. Especially if there are inspection issues to iron out between the seller and the home buyer. There are times it takes a week for the inspection issues to be negotiated. So if you wait six days and then the issues take a week you have lost 2 weeks. So it is best to schedule your Metro Detroit home inspection as soon as possible.

The good ones point out potential future problems and tell you simple tips to help you maintain your new home.
Bottom line is get a home inspection done whether you are buying a Plymouth home or Novi real estate.
