About Your Home Inspector, Chesley Ruff, CPI
It’s no secret that the decision to buy or sell a family home is a major lifetime milestone. Few financial transactions will ever be larger for most families. Understandably, it can be a stressful and demanding time as well. Everyone involved has their own stake in the process. The Buyer wants “that ideal home where they can spend their future years secure, happy and free from unanticipated complications”. The Seller wishes to obtain the best price for a wonderful home in order to move on to the next chapter in their life. The Real Estate Professional has a desire to bring both parties together and consummate the purchase as quickly as possible. The Bank or Mortgage Company wants to be sure that its loan is backed by a valuable and marketable property. It is in this very time that misunderstandings occur or mistakes are made and most often unintentionally. This is why and when you need my services as a Certified Professional Home Inspector.
As a Certified Home Inspector I am employed by a specific party to be their advocate in the acquisition of knowledge about their planned purchase or sale. I examine parts of a home that are often overlooked by a potential buyer and sometimes discover a situation completely unknown to a seller. “Trust but Verify” implies that mistakes can be made by even the best intentioned individuals for many reasons. Through the use of infrared technology I can sometimes “spot” a potential problem long before it becomes a costly problem. They say that “Knowledge is power” but for my clients “Knowledge is peace of mind”
