If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.
