Inspections an important part of home building and buying

With home sales through the roof, home inspectors are in high demand since their work is a critical step in the purchase process. Only a thorough, professional inspection of the home’s physical structure and mechanical condition, from roof to foundation, can uncover the issues you’ll need to watch for as a buyer. Lebanon Code Administrator Joe Berkich said this is especially true for new builds. He said city inspectors work side by side with the builders…

Berkich said it’s important for the contractor and subcontractors to be registered with the city in case there is an issue after the fact. He said without that contact information the homeowner is stuck if there is a defect. If you are planning to build in Lebanon and have questions contact the city of Lebanon.
