Welcome to Leahy’s Inspections – Home Inspection Checklist

We are here to help home buyers understand the condition of the home being purchased. With 25 years of experience and 1,000′s of hours of education, your Fort Worth Dallas area home inspector will provide a detailed report from the roof down to the foundation.

Buying a home is a huge investment. With the possibility of having major surprises down the road.

The Day of the Home Inspection

I always encourage my clients to be present at the time of the home inspections. Visually seeing the problems and explained on why the issues have occurred will give you a better understanding of how to maintain your new home in the future. My goal is to educate the buyer on the condition and always a phone call away to answer any questions in the future.

If you are constraint by time with being present for the 4 hours of the home inspection, I encourage all my clients to show up during at least the last 30 minutes of the inspection. Once you arrive and the home inspector has finished the home inspection, you’ll then be walked around and shown the issues of the home. Home inspectors do not inspect by code but by the Standards set forth by the Real Estate Commissions and NACHI Commercial SOP.

You don’t want unexpected cost after purchasing your new home. Whether the issues are large or small, after your closing they’re your problems. A home inspection can give you a peace of mind that you and your investment deserves.

Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you’ll probably not get to meet me until the day of the inspection. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods and yes, different pricing. One thing is for sure, a home inspection takes work, a lot of work.
