Builders make mistakes and sometimes take shortcuts, and inspection should find these.

I recommend all my buyers of new construction have two inspections. First before dry wall goes up and then prior to final walk.

Frank Rubi, MBA - there are a few inspections that you should recommend. And yes, it's a huge investment - the buyers must know the value of inspection!

I have a new construction booklet that I go over when my Buyer wants to build. In it I have many posts written by inspectors here in ActiveRain, comments by my past New Build Clients and some of the things that the whole house inspection found. I have never had a buyer NOT want to order an inspection on new construction.
