Healthy home inspections are focused on finding health and safety issues with a home. We look at the site, building exterior and interior, building systems, and inspect for any hazards on the property.  Health and safety inspections help identify areas that need correction now, and can give information on how to prevent dangerous conditions in the future. When applying for a FHA 203K loan, it’s important to have an inspection to see what corrections will need to be made before moving in. For information on 203K loans, see this site: 2021 FHA 203k Loan Requirements & How to Qualify (thelendersnetwork.com)
