We often get asked, “Why do you offer warranties on an inspection? Isn’t everything covered by the inspection”?
The short answer is “no”, nothing is covered by a home inspection. Home inspections only document the current condition of a home at the time of the inspection. Home inspections are limited to the visual components of a home at the time of the inspection. They do not predict the future, do not indicate future performance, and do not guarantee anything in the future.
For these reasons, we always recommend that home buyers talk to their real estate professional about home warranties. The conditions that exist in a home can and will be different after closing. Time is hard on home. People are hard on a home. The home we saw on one day, will be different 2 weeks later, 4 weeks later, or 8 weeks later.
Home buyers should be aware of the conditions of the home warranty the purchase. Many specifically exclude any claims that are made in the first 30 days. The warranty companies say that claims arising that fast are due to “pre-existing” conditions, even though the home inspector indicated that no problem was present at the time of the inspection.
We do include limited warranties – FREE to all home buyers – that help to bridge the gap between the home inspection and the 30 day waiting period of a home warranty. Please feel free to contact us if you have questions about these home warranties. More details will follow in future blog postings.

Excellent service! Zach did a very thorough job of inspecting the home and gave us a very thorough report, both verbally and in writing. Excellent demeanor and super polite! When the inspection was finished, he went over a summary of items … More to think about having repaired and also put us at ease that the house, in general, was in excellent shape with very few things that should be addressed. Like replacing some caulking around the vinyl windows (which I know how to do myself!) I felt completely comfortable with everything he looked at and his overall assessment! He was there before we arrived for our appointment and was careful to use foot coverings and check everything. Wow! Cannot recommend these guys enough! -

Crown is fantastic and we love recommending them to our clients. I asked for an inspection on Monday and they came out early Tuesday and got it done. In this business getting these done quickly is very important. My client was super happy … More with them as well. -

Kevin did a wonderful job conducting our inspection! He took the time to sit down with me and walk through the summary page by page. He answered any additional questions that I had as well. I received the full report with pictures later … More that evening. I would highly recommend. -
