What to Expect From Your Home Inspection
Whether you're purchasing, selling, or simply caring for your home, True Check Home Inspections is committed to delivering thorough, professional service from your first call onward. We guide you through the property step by step, sharing insights at your pace and comfort level. Our inspections are conducted in alignment with the InterNACHI Standards of Practice—recognized as the benchmark for excellence in the home inspection industry.
After touring the property together, we’ll review the overall condition of the home and its major systems with you and your agent, highlighting any significant concerns that may require prompt attention. We’ll also point out components that could benefit from ongoing monitoring or future upkeep. All findings will be clearly documented in our user-friendly Spectora report, available in both HTML and PDF formats, complete with photos to visually support the observations we discussed.
