Yes, it's actually encouraged! You’re welcome to attend the full inspection, but most clients prefer to arrive near the end. Once Ethan has finished, he’ll walk you through the key findings and point out anything worth seeing in person. That way, you get all the insight, without the long wait.
You’ll typically receive your digital report the same day as your inspection, complete with photos, 360º tours of each room, and clear explanations organized by level of attention needed. It’s user-friendly and designed to give you clarity at a glance.
No, inspections don’t “pass” or “fail.” An inspection isn’t a test, it’s a neutral, educational report on the current condition of the home. It’s purpose is to give insight into potential issues so you can make an informed decision.
It’s completely normal for a home inspection to uncover issues. Every home has something, even new builds. The report is meant to give you a clear understanding of what’s going on, not to scare you. Some items may be minor or purely informational, while others might need repairs or further evaluation. Ethan will explain the context of each finding so you can understand what’s urgent, what’s negotiable, and what’s just part of homeownership. The goal is to help you make informed decisions, not overwhelm you with red flags.
