Important: This Checklist Is a Starting Point, Not a Substitute

A DIY inspection using this checklist is useful for identifying obvious visible defects. However, professional snagging inspectors typically find 3-5 times more issues than a homeowner -- including hidden problems with electrics, plumbing, insulation, and structural elements that are not visible without specialist equipment. We recommend using this checklist alongside (not instead of) a professional survey.
