Home Inspections

When do I need a home inspection?

The property inspection condition is one of the most common and widely used contract conditions in Alberta real estate when buying a property.

Buying a home/business is the largest investment most consumers will ever make. Before buying, you should know what condition the home/business is in and what repairs might be needed. Hiring a qualified home inspector to examine a home can help you to make an informed decision about its condition.

What is a property home inspection?

Who attends a home inspection in Alberta?

The Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA) expects the buyer's representative to be present during the home inspection because it is he or she who is responsible for access to the property and the care of it during the inspection.  It is best to touch base with your realtor to confirm who can attend.
