Ask about terms and conditions. It is somewhat common in many states to perform inspections without insurance. Some inspectors have a clause in the inspection agreement or report that limits their liability, often to the cost of the inspection. That is little recourse in the event that a major defect is later discovered costing several thousand dollars. All Seasons Home Inspections has no such clause and is insured for Errors and Omissions and General Liability.

  
 
Deadly Mistake #2: Getting a Cheap Inspection.   
Purchasing a home is expensive, and now is not the time to shop around for a cheap inspection.  The cost of a home inspection is small relative to the cost of a home, often about one tenth of one percent.  Don't let anyone suggest that all inspections are the same.
