Since this is 'Home Inspections 101', let's start with the basics.
A home inspection is a limited, non-invasive examination of the condition of a home. Many times it is done in connection with the sale of a home, but can take place at any time if the need for one should arise. Home inspections are usually conducted by a licensed and certified home inspector who has the proper training to perform such inspections.
Home inspections can make or break any deal, and therefore become an important factor in the real estate transaction for both buyers and sellers.

Whether you're a home buyer or seller, it's likely that you are fixated on home showings.
As a buyer, you're eager to see the list of homes you've compiled that meet your needs, hoping that one may be your next dream home. As a seller, you're eager to have your home shown, hoping that one of the people who walks through your door will be a potential buyer.
Home showings are an important part of the buying and selling process, but safety is equally important and is sometimes overlooked in the process.
