A house is a complex structure. Your house is no exception. Where there’s complexity, there’s risk. An experienced Oswego IL home inspector like our Mike Stephans can help you manage that risk. Home inspection in Oswego IL means looking objectively at a house from foundation to roof. At 3-D Home Inspection, we call it “inspecting for what you don’t expect.” Home owners, home sellers and home buyers can benefit from an inspection by an experienced Oswego IL home inspector like 3-D.

Why Home Inspection in Oswego IL is Important

Many of the homes in Oswego are newer construction. Lots of people think only older homes have issues. But, that’s not necessarily true. Even brand new homes can have faults and failures of their systems and structure. One of the frequently overlooked areas in newer homes is the garage. Read our blog post about garage hazards to learn more about this danger. 

Because of these dangers, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) strongly recommends an inspection for home buyers. Scroll down to learn more about how an experienced home inspector can help Oswego home owners, sellers and buyers.

Benefits for Buyers

A home is probably the largest single investment you will ever make. As a smart buyer, you’ll want to learn as much as you can about the the property before you buy. The information will help you negotiate the best price and minimize surprises and problems later on.

Keep in mind, a home inspection also points out the positive aspects of a home. That can help you make your final decision. An inspection report from 3-D will also help you learn about maintenance that you’ll need to perform to keep the house in good shape. The end result is a much clearer understanding of the property you are about to purchase.

Benefits for Sellers

Are you getting ready to sell your house in Oswego IL? A pre-listing inspection enables you to see your home through the eyes of a critical third-party. Once you see the areas that can be improved, you’ll have a chance to make repairs before the house goes on the market. That way defects won’t be stumbling blocks during negotiation.

An inspection by an ASHI certified inspector may also make prospective buyers more comfortable making an offer. Plus, you can address immediate safety issues before agents and visitors tour your home.
