How Much Does a Home Inspection Cost?
Home Inspection Pricing and Components

How Much Are Home Inspections?
This is the number one question we receive, and rightly so. As a prospective homebuyer, you are about to spend thousands of dollars on your real estate purchase, and every dollar counts when you have to consider all of the costs involved, from closing costs to inspections to repairs and moving expenses. Not to mention furnishing your new place!
One thing the home experts at NJ Inspects know for sure is that this is one expense you don't want to skip out on. The price of having a reputable company inspect every facet of your home far outweighs the cost of having a major issue come up after you close!
Factors Involved in Home Inspection Pricing
Nationwide, the average cost to have a home inspected is $350. However, there are several factors that will determine your cost. First, of course, is the size of the home that you are inspecting. The square footage, number of bathrooms, size of the roof, etc. cause the price to vary. In addition, the age of the home plays a large role. Certain materials have a known average lifespan and they are inspected closely. Your NJ Inspects inspector will provide you with an estimate of the amount of life you have left on your roof, plumbing, wiring, and more. If you have additional features such as a swimming pool, hot tub, outbuilding, or detached garage, all of these items will increase your cost.
