Post-Close Home Inspections

In fast-paced, dynamic housing markets, there isn’t always time for a home inspection before closing. New homeowners who skip the inspection to win the property don’t have to move in without getting an assessment of the house. A home inspection after purchase provides a wealth of information to help you plan for future repair and replacement needs.

True ownership starts with a post-close home inspection from HouseMaster®, a trusted name in home inspections.
