BUNGALOWS TO MANSIONS PROFESSIONAL HOME INSPECTION, LLC A home inspection is one of most pivotal stages of the home buying or selling process.  But Bruce Graham, owner and operator of Bungalows to Mansions Professional Home Inspection LLC, believes that it’s one of the best things you can do for your house, whether you’re buying, selling, or just looking to keep it well-maintained. “Your home is a major investment” says Graham, who has inspected homes in the Alachua county area for the last year.  An inspection can reveal any number of concerns that, while not apparent to the untrained eye, can lead to major problems within a few years, months, or even weeks.  Therefore, it’s important to hire an inspector with plenty of experience.   Graham’s experience gives Bungalows to Mansions an edge in the home inspection industry.  For the 26 years prior to starting his home inspection business he worked as a heating and air conditioning service technician and project engineer, a commercial property manager, and as owner / operator of a home remodeling company.  “Because of this experience, I literally know properties from the ground up.”  He is knowledgeable in many aspects of the home, which comes in handy when making sure a property passes muster.   Graham is also a member of the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors (NACHI) and fulfills at least 24 hours of continuing education each year.  The NACHI exam is a tough one, with a 50% failure rate.  “It’s actually available for anyone to take on their website he says, adding that it’s a real eye-opener to see the questions being asked and realize just how much knowledge a good inspector needs to have.   Graham also realizes that many people perceive home inspection as something negative – a stress-filled experience or a “deal killer” in real estate.  However, he insists that this is not the case.  Remember that a home inspection can often put your mind at ease if you’re buying or selling a house by reassuring you of a property’s quality.  The more you know about the home, the better-informed your decision will be regarding an asking price or offer.  “It’s the house that kills the deal, not the inspector” says Graham.  “It’s cheaper to find any defects now, rather than to wait until later.”  Most quality inspectors will tell a potential buyer that no home is perfect, and that they shouldn’t end a deal over minor issues that can be found even in a meticulously maintained home.   Another aspect to remember about home inspections is that it’s not just for people buying or selling a home.  It’s a good idea to periodically get your home inspected, just to make sure there are no developing issues.  It can save you a lot of money down the road, after a smaller problem has compounded over time.  Just like you go to your doctor for regular checkups, an inspection should be considered “a physical for your home.”
