Locating an Inspector


It is essential to find reliable and experienced inspectors. Your real estate professional may provide a list of inspectors with whom he or she has worked in the past. Another option is to look in the yellow pages. There are some businesses that have more than one area of expertise. In New Mexico, it is important to know that for some inspections the inspector is NOT required to have a license. Anyone can offer the service of home inspections, so it is important to ask for references and talk to people who have recently worked with the inspector you are considering. Consider using an inspector that is a member of the American Society of Home Inspectors. Visit the American Society of Home Inspectors Web site at www.ashi.org for more information.
