If you are buying a new construction home, you might assume that a home inspection isn't needed. No one has ever stepped foot in your model home for anything to break or have maintenance issues. A phase inspection can provide valuable insight into your builder's construction, as well as the opportunity to prevent costly repairs on the home later down the road. You might be surprised at how many issues can be found by an unbiased 3rd party inspector. Low-quality building material, incorrectly installed roofing or insulation, and open junction boxes are just some of the things that can be missed. Although many builders are great about completing repair work discovered within your first few months of living there, some are the opposite. After you close, they are no longer interested in what needs to be fixed and your name is put at the bottom of a long list.
 
With a new construction inspector helping you throughout the building process, these issues will be found immediately and fixed before closing. There are three opportunities during the building cycle when it is recommended to have your third-party inspector evaluate and report on the workmanship and construction of your new home. The standard 3-phase, new construction inspection process is utilized to ensure that major defects within your home are not covered up. Knowing that your new home is being constructed in accordance with the International Residential Code (IRC) and is in total compliance with all state-mandated regulations, will ensure your peace of mind.
