Prepare in advance

You should prepare a Checklist
If you have specific areas of concern make sure to bring this to the attention of your inspector. Prepare a list of questions. Come prepared with pen and paper to take notes, as some details beyond the scope of the inspection may not be recorded in the inspection report. Wear comfortable clothing and footwear, including appropriate outdoor clothing.
Your home inspector will usually be early for the inspection, however unforeseen circumstances may cause delays. Please make sure that your home inspector has a telephone number in advance to contact you should such a situation arise. Set aside time to attend the entire home inspection.
