Don’t skimp out and skip a home inspection to save a little money when buying a home. The average cost to have a professional check the condition of a property is $328, according to HomeAdvisor.
“It’s always best to splurge on a good home inspection to make sure the systems and the components in the house are working properly and in good condition,” Kline said. It can help you avoid sinking money into a house that is in need of costly repairs.
Or it can help you negotiate a lower price if you know there are things that need to be fixed or replaced. For example, knowing that the roof is 25 years old and will need to replaced soon is a great bargaining chip to negotiate a lower purchase price, Kline said.
