What Really Matters In A Home Inspection

 Most of your home inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies for various systems and components, and minor imperfections. These are useful to know about.  However, the issues that really matter will fall into four categories: 

  1. Major defects.  An example of this would be a structural failure;
  2. Things that lead to major defects, such as a small roof-flashing leak, for example;
  3. Things that may hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy, or insure the home; and
  4. Safety hazards.
