Types of Home Inspections
SINGLE FAMILY HOME
Purchasing a single-family home is a significant investment, and unexpected issues can be a major setback. Cosmic Property Inspections ensures that you move into your new home with confidence by conducting a thorough visual inspection of all accessible areas, both interior and exterior.
CONDOMINIUM
TOWNHOUSE
Inspecting townhouses and condos is essential, even though exteriors and common areas are typically managed by an association. Such inspections can reveal critical issues that might impact reserve funds and the property's livability.
​
MULTI FAMILY HOME
Multi-family properties vary significantly. Typically, buildings with fewer than five units are classified as residential, while those with five or more are considered commercial. Whether you require a thorough inspection of every unit or just a sample along with all mechanical and structural areas, we are here to assist.
NEW CONSTRUCTION
Just because a home is new doesn't guarantee it's free of problems. A critical aspect of new construction inspections is creating a punch list, which highlights unfinished, poorly finished, or damaged construction items. While municipalities conduct various inspections throughout the building process, they often don't focus on the quality of the finish. We help ensure new constructions meet high standards.

MAINTENANCE INSPECTIONS
PRE-SALE
INSPECTIONS
11 MONTH
INSPECTIONS
Homes not for sale can still benefit from inspections. Our home maintenance inspection assesses a home's condition to recommend proactive maintenance, focusing on educating homeowners rather than seeking work like a contractor might. This approach helps maintain and enhance the value of your largest investment.
Pre-sale inspections offer several advantages, including the opportunity to address minor repairs, budget effectively, and potentially increase the home's sale value. These inspections help sellers identify areas needing improvement, enhancing appeal and streamlining the sale process.
An 11-month inspection is crucial as it occurs just before a new construction warranty expires, allowing home buyers a final opportunity to address concerns with the builder. We help identify issues before the warranty period ends, ensuring you can address them in time. This service help safeguard your new home investment.
POOL
INSPECTIONS
Many homes feature pools, which require specialized inspections beyond the scope of standard home checks. We offer detailed pool inspections to identify safety hazards and potential costly issues. These inspections benefit both first-time pool owners and those needing regular maintenance, ensuring safe and optimal operation.
