Attend your home inspection to see first-hand what the inspector notes, and learn some important details about the house , like how to use the water, sprinklers, heater, electricity, etc.
When attending your inspection:
• Wear casual clothes and comfortable shoes. You may find yourself crawling under and behind things to see what the inspector is pointing out.
• Plan for the inspection to take two or three hours.
• Bring pen and paper, copies of any inspection reports provided by the seller, and any disclosure reports that identified past problems so the inspector can follow up.
• Feel free to ask questions, but give the inspector time and space to work.
