Pandemic Update...As many of us are staying home as much as possible and self quarantining you may be putting your home sale or purchase on hold. The less interaction we all have with each other the better. There are some things you can do while at home.

If you are selling your home, get it ready by removing clutter and get those little repairs made. When these bans are lifted, call me for a sellers inspection or consultation prior to listing. These services will provide you with valuable information before selling your home and help you receive top dollar for it. It often makes the sale much more smooth. 

If you're planning on buying a home this year, you have plenty of time to determine the type of home you want and what specific amenities you want in your home. Define all your wants/needs clearly and start your home search and be ready to move once things open up again. I strongly urge you to get a home inspection no matter how much you think you know about a house. If you are not able to physically go see the home for yourself and not getting a home inspection is not a good combination to move forward with a home purchase during this pandemic. So be patient until the pandemic bans are over with before you start the purchase process.

While you are waiting for all this to be over, you should also read up about home inspections, what they are, and what they are not. New York State provides minimum standards home inspectors must minimally meet, most of us go above and beyond these standards. Read home inspectors websites, they should be professional looking and provide a lot of valuable information, if they do not, its a fair bet the inspector is new to the industry. Get a feel for what the inspector is going to do for you, after all, we (inspectors) don't meet you usually until the day of your home inspection. This site is full of great information and valuable links on many topics. Read home inspector reviews to get a feel for the level of service you can expect to receive from them. Look back through the reviews, you can tell how long someone has approximately been in business, experience in the field matters. Make a phone call, email or text to inspectors and interview them about their services, experience, certifications etc. Price is usually the last area you should be concerned about when selecting your inspector. You know the old saying, you get what you pay for or in this case, don't pay for. The cheapest inspectors are often the newer inspectors trying to break into the business. Find an inspector that YOU feel comfortable with, that you can talk to and ask many questions of as you should whenever hiring a contractor, realtor, lawyer also. Recommendations from friends, families, realtors are great but the people they recommend may not always be a good fit for your specific needs. Evaluate all your choices and make your own educated decision, after all right now all we have is time.
