What We Do
Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining your home, Dante Home Inspections, provides professional and quality service from the moment you call us. Our licensed home inspectors will walk through step by step. We strictly follow and exceed the Standards of Professional Practice adopted by the State of New Jersey and InterNACHI, the leading home inspection association.
After the inspection will explain the general condition of the home and systems with you and your agent. We will talk through any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in my easy-to-read report, that will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. From that report, you’ll be able to see the items we discussed, with images for reference.

FAQ
I think so; for about 1% of the purchase price you’ll get the peace of mind of knowing the condition of the home BEFORE you buy it. Lets face it, for most of us, the single largest investment we will make in our lifetime will be the purchase of our home. Our homes are made up with many working parts. The condition and function of these parts as a system will determine our comfort and safety while living in the home. The various conditions of these components will aid in the determination of the overall value of your investment decision, and in turn gaining the knowledge to successfully make an educated decision.
There is no set time, however you can expect an average of 2-4 hours for completion. My goal is to give the client a thorough understanding of the components of the home based on serviceability.
Absolutely! I strongly encourage you and your spouse/partner to attend the inspection. When the inspections is complete we’ll go over the findings and I’ll be more than happy to address any questions, issues or concerns you may have.
If you’re present at the conclusion of the inspection we’ll sit down and go over the report verbally. Reports are generated with pictures and are completed usually the same evening as the inspection. Normally you can expect your report the following morning or within 24 hours.
No. The decision of whether to buy, or not, is strictly up to you. As a home inspector I can not provide advice to purchase the home, but I can provide the report for your to make an educated decision. The home inspection report is not legal advice.
Due to the busy schedules of realtors, clients, sellers, and buyers, Inspections are available 7 days a week by appointment. Keep in mind that home inspections do not need to be performed during daylight hours.
The fee for a complete home inspections will vary depending on the home’s size, age and components of the home. Please contact us for an estimate.
