Common problems identified on a home inspection.

According to the American Society of Home Inspectors these are some of the most common problems that are discovered on a home inspection...

• Faulty Wiring: Wires without wire nuts, open junction boxes.
• Faulty Plumbing: Low water pressure, water stains on ceilings.
• Poor Drainage: Soggy areas in the yard, leaks in basement.
• Bad Gutters: Clogged gutters, basement dampness.
• Foundation Flaws: Small cracks, sticking doors and windows.
• Poor Maintenance: Chipped paint, worn shingles, cracked driveway.

If you tend to these issues before putting your home on the market, you can reduce the odds that your real estate deal may fall through due to a failed inspection.
