3 RED FLAGS INEXPERIENCED INSPECTORS MISS

HVAC FAILURE HVAC systems can be notoriously finicky. While they may work fine when the temperatures are mild, they can go haywire the instant the heat turns up. Inspectors may not be able to see the future, but a skilled inspector can zero in on the telltale signs that an HVAC system is in danger of imminent failure or malfunction. If you’re looking for a home inspector who will leave no stone unturned, look no further than Liberty Inspection Group.

When your reputation and financial destiny are on the line, you need a home inspector on your side who’s beyond thorough — you want someone with years of experience and hundreds of happy past clients. Though they’ll do their best, lesser inspectors will often miss red flags that aren't as obvious as mold or a broken roof. But that doesn’t make these issues any less hazardous. Here are three of the most common problems that underqualified inspectors frequently overlook. LEAKS You might think that a problematic leak on a property would be pretty obvious, and often they are, but sometimes they’re extremely difficult to spot. If the plumbing system hasn’t been used for a while, or the leak simply has gone away, the signs of a leak can be nearly invisible. But if you have an inspection team on your side with a keen eye and a lot of training, they’ll pick up on even the subtlest signs of leakage. SEWER LINE DAMAGE Sewer line inspection is a tricky business. With a cursory glance, it’s easy to miss problems that may not be visible right away but will reveal themselves years in the future, costing owners a fortune in repairs. While sewer line inspection is typically not included in an ordinary inspection, it’s often a good idea to add it into your inspection package, especially with older buildings. You want to make sure your inspector has a comprehensive process to detect every potential issue.
