There is a perception that a new home should have very little wrong. I agree it should and most of the time this is the case. But when you are buying a new home, in truth there should be nothing wrong.

Here is a case of why it is important to have a home inspection, even for those new homes.

Let start with the laundry room, nice new flooring but we are missing an important item, the dryer exhaust duct. It is very nice to have an air exchange hole to the crawlspace.

Here is another nice feature. Many people love disposals. But I have found that they have a limitation. They do not work very well when they have no power cord attached.

But wait we have the crawlspace to inspect. Here are some nice features.

The baffling of the foundation vent is baffling.

Or this, having the screening of the foundation vent already compromised so "Mickey Mouse" and his friends can have a nice new home too!

But wait, there is one more feature. Having the waste line properly supported. This was close they have the straps in place but they forgot one little detail.

Every home be it new, old or in between should have a quality home inspection performed. There is no perfect home and mistakes will happen but a home inspector can help you gather that information to make an informed decision.
