Your Open House Checklist

A blue house surrounded by nature

Before touring homes, print this checklist to help you remember specific items that you want to discuss with your inspector during the home inspection.  

Not every home inspection company is the same.  Costs can vary and so can the level of detail and service. So before scheduling a home inspection, compare other companies to Reliable Home Inspection Service.

Whether it's your first home purchase or your 10th, buying a home is still a big decision.  There's a lot to do and a ton to remember. That's why we've made this checklist for homebuyers. It's a great way to quickly and easily compare potential homes before you get a professional inspection done.

​

​

A quality home inspection can reveal critical information about the condition of a home and its systems. This makes you aware of what costs, repairs and maintenance the home may require immediately, and over time.

 

If you are not comfortable with the findings of the home inspection, it gives you the opportunity to negotiate the repairs with the seller. 

 

Remember, the cost of future repairs isn't included in the asking price!
