It is recommend that you get an inspection on a new home. This will be done around the time of your final walkthroughs. Your inspector will want to wait until the home is complete and all utilities are turned on before doing the inspection. You do not want to wait until the very last minute before closing to do an inspection. You want to give the builder time to address issues and fix them prior to closing. You may consider a staged inspection. This is where the inspector will check the home out during the different stages of construction. Staged inspections cost more so you will have to weigh the value vs. cost. Remember, new homes get inspected during construction by the city or county inspectors so there is some measure of accountability with them as well. Also, your home will be warranted for one to ten years for most of the major structural systems.
