It’s a New Home, Do I Still Need a Home Inspection?

Should you still get a home inspection on a new home? But you may say new homes come with a warranty and that should be enough? The warranty will only kick in if something fails during the warranty period. What if there is a flaw that doesn’t show itself until after the warranty expires? It could be something serious like faulty wiring, foundation issues, structural problems or deficient systems that will cost you big bucks. That will be disappointing news when you home is barely a couple of years old. All kinds of problems can show up through a home inspection.
