Four-Point Inspection Services

This category of Home Inspections is a visual evaluation that determines the “insurability” of the home.  It is the most cost-effective inspection, and is historically mandated by your home insurance company, as well as the lender chosen for a property that requires the approval of a loan.  

Compared to a comprehensive home inspection, the 4 Point inspection focuses on the major risks, particularly in properties that are over 20 years old. The inspection derives its name from the four critical areas of a home that are of interest:

• Roof (and structure of the home; what kind of covering; are all shingles attached to the roof?)
• HVAC system, i.e., Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (Any leaks?)
• Electrical (wiring of the home; any bent or damaged wires?)
• Plumbing (water flow piping; what kind of connections?)
