Home Inspection Cost in Maryland

 

Average Cost Your average home inspection cost in Maryland is $353. However, your average home inspection price ranges between $301 and $426 based on the size, type, and age of your property. At the lower end, you may pay just $200 for a very small condo, or up to $520 for a large single house.  No matter if you’re a prospective home buyer, real estate agent, or even selling your home, it pays to schedule a professional home inspection with a certified and licensed home inspector in Maryland to avoid thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs. Do your research, speak with your realtor and read online reviews to get a sense of the type of experience you can expect during and after your inspection. There are many homes that may look appealing at first but could have costly issues. Not knowing about these issues could cost you tens of thousands of dollars if not more in maintenance costs later down the road. Without an inspection from a qualified professional home inspector, you may be leaving future costs and fees up to chance, and leaving yourself in the dark about any potential issues with your present or future home. Items like roof leaks, leaky basements, defective smoke detectors, or faulty electrical systems can be unexpected surprises for new home owners. Our inspectors look closely to evaluate the home for these defects and others and provide you with detailed reports of their findings. Home inspections can help homeowners make an educated decision about whether or not a house is worth buying. They’re also a great way to spot potential problems, and can help determine repair costs for an existing home. A good home inspection provides information on the systems and components of a house — it looks for potential flaws, deferred maintenance, and necessary repairs/replacements. • The interior/exterior finishes • Plumbing systems • Electrical systems • HVAC systems • Water Heater • Kitchen and Laundry appliances • Every Smoke Detector • Roof (and attic, if applicable) • Basement and foundation • Fireplaces (if applicable) Each home inspection report includes details of every flaw, deferred maintenance, and necessary repair/replacement.

The complete home inspection report will indicate all of the inspectors’ findings of items that were found to be deficient as well as items that were inspected and found to be operational.
