Pre-Purchase Home Inspections
Pre-Purchase Real Estate Inspections
Performed by Licensed Professional Engineers
People choose to buy real estate based on factors including location, appearance, style, value, etc. Few people make a purchase decision based only on condition. It is easy to say "I’ll fix that," or "All this house needs is a coat of paint."
There was a time when real estate was less expensive, and homes were purchased without concern about defects. If one was unlucky enough to get a house with significant problems, they suffered with the problems.
In the 1960’s, many post World War I homes were sold as their owners retired. Some of these homes were poorly constructed or were not well maintained. Many home buyers faced significant expenses because of these defects. This is when pre-purchase home inspections began to become popular.
Today, housing is older, more expensive, and there are many concerns that were not even issues when the houses were built. Having a pre-purchase home inspection performed by a Licensed Professional Engineers who provides an expense analysis in the engineering report has become essential.

Expense Analysis
It is of little use to know that a problem or defect exists unless you also know what it is going to cost you to correct the problem. An expense analysis is useful for planning and for negotiating adjustments to the sale price. The engineering report prepared by Heimer Engineering includes an expense analysis.
