Understanding the Inspection Process
A home inspection is one of the most critical steps in your home purchase journey. In Simi Valley, inspections typically take two to three hours depending on the home's size and age.
What Inspectors Look For
California home inspectors follow strict standards when evaluating properties. They'll check the roof for missing shingles or signs of wear, examine the foundation for cracks, and test all electrical outlets.
Using Inspection Results
Once you have the inspection report, you have options. You can request repairs from the seller, ask for credits toward repairs, or negotiate a lower price. In our experience, Simi Valley sellers are often responsive to repair requests.
