Perhaps the most important part of a home inspection is checking the major systems.
After size, style and location, a home buyer's primary concern
is the condition of the basic structure and major electro-mechanical
systems. Most buyers do not want to invest a great deal of money
correcting problems in such critical areas. A thorough investigation
of the following major items should be made in order to determine
if they are serviceable:
• Roof structure and covering
• Foundation, basement, and/or crawl space
• Central heating and air conditioning systems
• Electrical system
• Plumbing system
