Home Inspection Fees

---

Home inspection fees are due at the time of the inspection and typically range from $300 to $500. Most pay by check at the conclusion of the inspection during the verbal summary. We also accept cash or card.   You can also prepay for the inspection by card through an online invoice. We use SQUARE therefore a 3% merchant fee will be added to the fee if paying by card. 

We do not offer "Bill-to-close". Bill-to-close  is when a home inspector gets paid at the time of closing instead of up-front at the time of the inspection. The fee is paid out of closing costs and the title company mails a check to the inspector. We used to allow this on rare ocassions however we no longer do. There are several issues with bill-to-close payment arrangements, the most important being an ethical one. Inspectors who offer this payment arrangement now have a financial interest in the home making it to closing. Sidenote: its also cheaper for buyers to pay at the time of the inspection because inspectors increase their fees for bill-to-close invoices.
