Additional ServicesHome Maintenance InspectionsHome maintenance inspections are designed to ensure that all aspects of the property are in good, working condition after the owner has been in the home for some time or prior to a major renovation project. Just as with a standard home inspection all appliances and mechanical systems are thoroughly inspected and tested to determine adequate operation and approximate useful life expectancy. The property owner is informed of any deficiencies, consulted on ways to maintain and even improve the property, and given a complete report detailing any and all findings. Home maintenance inspections can be performed at any time during ownership and can be scheduled to occur at preset intervals (such as yearly or bi-yearly).
Seller Certified Home Program (Pre-Listing Inspections)Listing inspections are very good for the homeowner who may not be in tune with the condition of their home. A great many sales are cancelled due to the buyer's shock at the "functional condition" of the home. It may look great, but have serious technical, safety, or functional issues present without the owner's knowledge. Having the home inspected prior to placing on the market is the ideal way to identify and either repair or disclose the issue found in the Inspection Report. Obviously, repairing the items would be the most beneficial towards completing the sale. However, there may be financial reasons where the owner can't make the repairs. Disclosing them up front and pricing the home based upon that disclosure will often times produce a higher net sales price for the owner. Radon TestingAccording to the U.S. Surgeon General and EPA, all homes should be tested for Radon Gas. It is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers. To test a home, Keystone uses an electronic, continuous radon monitor (CRM) that stays in the home for a minimum of 48 hours. The monitor samples the air at pre-set intervals and graphs each reading. At the end of the testing period, the results are read by your inspector and the average radon concentration is determined. If the amount of radon in the home is at or above the EPA recommended maximum level, a mitigation system should be considered. Please consult with your inspector regarding the results or questions about lowering your radon levels.
