Do condos need a different kind of inspection?
Yes. A condo or townhome inspection focuses on everything inside your walls plus the systems that serve your unit, while clarifying what belongs to the HOA. Buyers are often surprised by which repairs are theirs and which are the associations. We spell out that line clearly in the report.
What we inspect in a condo or townhome
- Electrical panel and branch wiring serving the unit
- Plumbing fixtures, supply lines, drains and the water heater
- Heating and cooling equipment dedicated to the unit
- Appliances, windows, doors, walls, ceilings and floors
- Balconies, patios and attached garages where applicable
- Thermal imaging scan for hidden moisture, a critical check in shared-wall buildings where a neighbors leak becomes your drywall stain
What buyers should ask the HOA
Roofs, exterior stucco, common plumbing and shared amenities are usually HOA territory. Our report helps you form the right questions for the association about reserves, planned assessments and past repairs before your inspection period ends.
