This residential inspection check list is offered as a guide for a final visit before taking title.

 

            The Criterium Engineers Standard Inspection report is intended to focus on the major engineering systems (structure, heating, plumbing and electric) in the building you are considering.  While spot checks of many components (such as switches/outlets, appliances, fixtures, etc.) are made during the inspection and any significant deficiencies noted in our report, it is important to understand that the condition of many components can change at any time.  Therefore, we highly recommend at least one more visit to these premises be made just before taking title. 

 

            Allow sufficient time to comfortably complete this list.  Please note that not all of these items will apply to every building.
