Why Every Newton Homebuyer Should Schedule a Home Inspection

Having a home inspected before you put an offer on it is extremely important. Here's why.

Having a home inspected before you buy it has multiple benefits. Some buyers ask sellers if they have had the home inspected, and then take the seller's word on what the outcome was. It's wise to ask if the home has been inspected, but it is even smarter to have it inspected yourself.

There are many benefits to having a home in the Newton, MA real estate market inspected before you buy it. A few of the major reasons include:

  • An Inspection Could Reveal Hidden Problems
  • An Inspection May Help You Negotiate a Lower Price
  • An Inspection Could Alert You to Upcoming Costs

The results of an inspection could cause you to second guess whether or not you want to put an offer on a home, or they could help you solidify your choice. Regardless of the outcome of the inspection, having a home inspected before you buy it could help you save time and money.
