Call us today to schedule your Rental Property Inspection. Families are relocating prior to the beginning of school and college students are moving into their apartments prior to the beginning of classes. Your Rental Property Inspection by Complete Home Inspection gives you peace of mind as an owner/manager or as a renter, whether it's a house condo, townhouse, or apartment. And, consider adding a mold test to check for hidden damages and health hazards.
For landlords/managers, it gives you independent, third-party documentation of the condition of the property before or after leasing - a great way to help protect your investment. Your inspection also documents normal vs. abnormal wear and tear when done both before and after a tenant's lease.
For renters, it's a great way to ensure that you don't overlook something when you fill out your damage list and then end up getting charged for a pre-existing condition when you move out. You have so many other things on your mind, let us handle the thorough inspection you need to do in order to protect yourself. Also, we can take you through the property and explain how to use the various appliances and systems you'll be living with.
Whether you're the landlord or the tenant, you'll receive a written report that includes repair and maintenance recommendations.

Clean out the gutters
With all of the rain in the Kansas City area this season, it's very important to keep the rain gutters on your house free of debris.
It's easy to remember to do this in the Fall with all of the falling leaves clogging things up. But, it's just as important to do in the Spring with all of the "helicopter seeds" from maple trees, Sugar Gum balls, and the like.
Clogged gutters and downspouts lead to overflows and back ups that can put water in your basement. The clogs keep rain water from flowing away from your house's foundation. It, instead, seeks out the cracks in your basement walls.
Just a maintenance reminder for you so that your basement doesn't end up becoming a "cement pond".

Buying a condo
Money magazine reported in its July issue that prices and mortgage rates for condos are low and choices are plentiful. One housing analyst was quoted as saying, "There are deals of a lifetime out there...".
Should you have your new condo inspected before you buy? Yes. Sometimes it seems as though a condo doesn't need a complete inspection because it doesn't have many of the same concerns as a free-standing home (perhaps no roof immediately overhead your living space, perhaps no basement or crawl space immediately below, etc.).
But your condo still has many of the same systems that need a complete inspection so that you'll know their condition before you buy. Your condo inspection includes the plumbing, electric, heating and cooling systems, appliances, doors, and windows. So you see, you can get a lot of peace of mind by having your condo inspected before you buy. You can test for mold, too, if you wish.

Rain, rain, go away...
As the rainy season continues in Kansas City, you may end up with some water in your basement. Regardless of how the water found its way into your home, just sucking it up or drying it out may not be enough for your family's health.
Moisture often leads to the development of mold, even in the cleanest of homes. You can't clean what you can't see, and if water has gotten in behind paneling, drywall, or in the attic, you may not even know that it is there. Wet carpeting, wet drywall, and other items damaged by incoming water can develop mold spores. And that can end up sickening your family.
Once the water has been dried, it's a good idea to do a mold test. The test itself takes only a couple of minutes and you'll have a complete result report back from the lab in just a few days. It's a rather inexpensive way to get peace of mind regarding your family's respiratory health.

Housing Market
As today's housing market continues to rebound, a home inspection becomes even more important for your peace of mind as you buy a property.
Foreclosures may offer you a great deal, but the condition of the property often deteriorates rapidly as the house is offered for sale. Water in basements is common as the home is left unattended. Vandalism often occurs as the previous owners vacate the house. And hidden problems that arise from the house being vacant often don't show up until utilities, such as the water, are turned back on.
To get an idea of what kind of a "deal" you are actually getting in today's market, let us completely inspect the property for you. Then you will know the condition of the house at the time of the inspection and understand exactly what you're getting into.

Home Buyers Credit
Regardless of whether you get all the paperwork done in time for the various Home Buyers Credits offered by the government, make sure you include a Complete Home Inspection in your buying process.
Even after the flurry of activity dies down and the market returns to normal, it's still critical to find out the condition of the property you're considering. It's simply too big of an investment on your part. Gather all of the information that you can so that you make an informed decision.
Your Complete Home Inspection results in a computerized report, complete with photos, that details the condition of the property at the time of the inspection. It's the best possible way for you to know what you're getting into.
And, as the selling market quiets down a bit, consider doing a Seller's Inspection. It's a great sales tool allowing your prosepctive buyers to know that the property has already been inspected and that your Disclosure Form is about as thorough as can be.
