 Home Inspection ChecklistContent © HomeDepot.com |
 We recommend that you hire an experienced, licensed home inspector to carefully inspect the home you have selected. We suggest that you actively participate in the inspection process. Use this worksheet to remember the basic components to be inspected, and as a place to note your questions, or your inspector’'s comments. Be sure to turn on every electrical appliance and operate every mechanical system during the inspection. |
| NOTE: Completing this worksheet is not a substitute for a thorough inspection by a qualified home inspector. |
