Inspectors

Typically the next individual that a buyer and seller will run into is the licensed home inspector. It is always a good idea for a buyer, whether he or she is a first time home buyer or not, to obtain a home inspection. This is true even if the home is new construction. All things created by man are fallible, but sometimes problems are not easily seen except by those who are licensed to find them. The buyer is usually responsible for paying the inspector, while the seller is responsible for making the repairs (though this is always a point of negotiation).
