Pre-Purchase Inspections Performed by Licensed Professional Engineers

People choose to buy real estate based on factors including location, layout, 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 little work."

There was a time when real estate was less expensive, and was often purchased without much concern about whether the building had major problems.  If a home purchaser was unlucky enough to buy a building with significant problems, they suffered.

Today, buildings are older and have more defects.  There are many concerns that were not even issues a few years ago.  Having a pre-purchase inspection performed by an Engineer who provides an expense analysis has become essential.
