There are Two Types of Common Inspections:
Standard or General Inspection: (the most common with residential real estate)
A review by a trained professional of the visual areas and components within a dwelling or building; usually taking between two and four hours (on site) depending on the building, and ending with either a handwritten or computerized report summarizing the inspector’s findings. This is the type of inspection that Pinnacle Inspections provides.
Technically Exhaustive Inspection:
This is where a group of professionals (possibly including engineers) will test and review every aspect of a dwelling using several testing methods or devices. This can take up to several days and thousands of dollars, and the findings are compiled into an extremely detailed report that can include repair estimates or other information. This type of inspection is generally done with larger commercial buildings or multi-unit rentals, but has been done on larger residential estates.
