Home Inspections for Buyers in New Jersey & New York​

Home Inspections That Help You Buy With Confidence — Not Surprises

​

Buying a home is one of the largest financial decisions you’ll ever make. A professional home inspection gives you the information you need to move forward with confidence, negotiate intelligently, and avoid costly surprises after closing.

​

At Advisory Home Inspection, we provide licensed, thorough, and unbiased home inspections throughout Northern New Jersey and Southern New York. Our goal is simple: help you understand the condition of the home so you can make an informed decision — without fear, pressure, or confusion.

What a Home Inspection Does for You

 

A home inspection helps you:

​

  • Identify safety concerns before you move in

  • Understand the condition of major systems and components

  • Discover hidden or deferred maintenance issues

  • Plan for future repairs and ownership costs

  • Make informed decisions during your inspection contingency

​​

An inspection is not about finding perfection — it’s about understanding the home you’re buying.

What’s Included in Your Home Inspection

 

Your inspection includes a visual evaluation of accessible components, including:

​

  • Roof, flashing, and visible drainage conditions

  • Exterior walls, grading, and foundation

  • Attic, insulation, and ventilation

  • Electrical system and visible wiring

  • Plumbing fixtures and visible piping

  • Heating and cooling systems

  • Interior walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows

  • Kitchens, bathrooms, and built-in appliances

​​

Optional services such as radon testing, wood-destroying insect inspections, and oil tank sweeps may be available depending on the property.

​

All inspections are performed in accordance with applicable New Jersey and New York Standards of Practice.

What a Home Inspection Is — and Is Not

 

A home inspection IS:

​

  • A professional, unbiased evaluation

  • A tool to help you understand risks and priorities

  • A snapshot of visible and accessible conditions

​​

A home inspection is NOT:

​

  • A guarantee or warranty

  • A code compliance inspection

  • A prediction of future failures

  • A cosmetic critique

​​

We focus on safety, function, and material defects that matter to you as a buyer.

What to Expect on Inspection Day

 

  • The inspection typically takes 2–4 hours, depending on the property

  • Buyers are welcome to attend and ask questions

  • Findings are explained calmly and clearly on site

  • You’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-read report, often the same day

​

We encourage questions — our job is to educate, not rush you.

Helping Your Clients Feel Confident

​

Home inspections are often the most emotional part of the buying process. We help reduce stress by:

​

  • Explaining findings in plain language

  • Distinguishing between typical wear and true concerns

  • Providing realistic context for older homes

  • Offering practical recommendations without pressure

  • ​

This approach builds trust with buyers and helps reinforce your value as a knowledgeable real estate professional.

Clear Reports That Make Sense

Our reports are designed to be:

​

  • Easy to navigate

  • Clearly written in plain language

  • Supported with photos

  • Organized by system and priority

​​

This makes it easier for you to:

​

  • Understand what matters most

  • Share information with your agent

  • Decide what to request during negotiations
