Agents can advise their clients to ensure the property is easily accessible for the inspector, including unlocking any gates or doors. You may also advise clients to declutter the property and address any maintenance issues beforehand.
How long will the inspection take?
A general home inspection usually lasts between 2-3 hours for a typical 2,000 square foot home.
