1. Structural Integrity

It is also necessary to inspect the walls, ceilings and floors for defects including cracks. These are very apparent signs that small cracks could be a sign of other problems with the structure of the building which may escalate in future: Door should open and close freely without any sticking or dragging, the same apply to the windows. Another important aspect that has to be checked is the roof for any signs of leakage or any form of damage. It is very important because a good structure of a home is the key to having a secure and safe home.

 

2. Electrical Systems

Check that all outlets, switch and light fittings are functional and in good working condition. Check for the electrical panel and ensure that it is correctly labeled and does work correctly. Perform all the safety checks of all the home appliances that include the oven, stove, and water heater among others. Any electrical issues should be addressed before you move in so that you do not have issues with electrocution.

 

3. Plumbing and Water Systems

Run water in all the faucets, shower and the toilets and ensure that none of them is dripping. Check the pressure range in the house and test if the water is hot at every place in the house. Look for dark stains or discoloration near sinks and around toilets for signs of water damage and mold, which may be a symptom of a concealed leaking.

 

4. Finishes and Fixtures

Examine the paint on the walls, the tiles, and the cabinets in the house in order to assess their quality. Make sure that the surface is flat and has no defects including chips, scratches or uneven paint surface. Ensure all fixtures like door handles, taps, and lightings among others are well fixed and working as required.

 

5. Outdoor Areas

Do not leave the exterior part of your home and see if everything is in order. Make sure that the driveway, pathways and any decking and patios have no cracks or signs of damage. Ensure that all the shrubs or trees and also the gutter and down spouts are well cleared and that the latter are well fixed and free from any blockage. This means that the outside of your home is as important as the inside of your home and this is especially considered when it comes to water damage.
