Home Inspections Keep Your Dream Home from Becoming a Nightmare

Buying my first home was an exciting and nerve-racking event. I’d just moved to a new city, and was giving up my apartment for a house in the ‘burbs, so a lot of the process had me baffled –  home inspections in particular. My Realtor helped guide me through the process, however, and pointed me to Pillar To Post’s website for more information on what a home inspection is, and how having one could help protect me as a buyer. The site was full of advice that helped me make a better decision when it came to buying a home. Their Home Tips Explorer walked me through different rooms and pointed out things I could look for myself, before even scheduling an inspection. That knowledge helped me narrow down my home choices really fast!

When I did find a home I simply loved, Pillar To Post was my first choice to do the inspection, and I wasn’t disappointed.  The home inspector explained the entire process step-by-step and took time to answer all of my question.  He discussed both the positive aspects of the house as well as the areas of concern, and even generated the report right there, on the spot, photos and all.  I was also able to have the report emailed to me, so I could review it at home later. The inspector showed me the Repair Estimate Cost Guide, which is included in the report, so I could see at a glance about how much each repair would cost me in the long run. This guide really helped when it came time to make an offer; I knew exactly what areas would need work, and how much they would cost. Finally, I was able to save a lot of money on a variety of products and services that I needed for my move by taking advantage of Pillar To Post’s Home Alliance Program.

Pillar To Post made the whole process simple and easy. I was even able to Request a Home Inspection Online just by filling out a simple form. My Realtor told me that Pillar To Post is the #1 ranked home inspection company by Entrepreneur Magazine, and now I know why. I’ve told all my friends, call Pillar To Post, 1-877-604-8584, or email marketing@pillartopost.com. You won’t be sorry. Oh, and yes, I bought my dream home.
