The Home Inspection Checklist You Didn’t Know You Needed

In this episode, Jamie dives into why ancillary services are such a big deal when it comes to home inspections. We break down what these extra services actually are, things like radon testing, mold assessments, sewer line checks, and water quality testing, and explain why they’re not typically part of a standard inspection.

Jamie talks about how choosing the right add-ons can make a huge difference depending on your home’s location, age, and unique risks. While these services might come with an extra cost, they can save homeowners from major headaches and expenses down the road.

Episode Highlights

  • Understanding which tests aren’t included in standard inspections (mold, radon, etc.)
  • How investing in extra services can prevent costly problems later
  • Radon testing: a critical step for homeowner health and safety
  • Tips for making informed decisions about additional inspections
