Home Inspection

What's inspected in a home inspection

A Fox Mountain Property Home Inspection is a comprehensive and careful examination and assessment of all facets of a property. The amount of time needed for the inspection will vary depending on the property’s size and features, but 1 to 2 hours is a general guide. Results of the inspection will be documented in a clear and detailed report, complete with color photographs. Because we know that time is often of the essence in buying or selling a home, Fox Mountain Properties Inspections guarantee to deliver the report the same day as your inspection.

How a Home Inspection Maryland Works

During an inspection, our inspectors will typically take 3-4 hours (depending on the size of the property) and go through the interior and exterior of the property examining areas of potential damage or safety hazards. These areas include faulty insulation, mold or mildew, exposed wiring, ineffective ventilation, or improper drainage. 

If the damage is cosmetic your inspector will likely not include it in your inspection report. Our main concern is safety. If there is a problem that could cause a safety threat or impede the function of the property, that’s the kind of information you’ll receive on your report.

How to Prepare for an Inspection

The best way to prepare your property for an inspection is by allowing easy access to all areas. Clutter, blockages, and locked doors signal to your buyer that you’re hiding something. Inspectors cannot move your belongings, so it’s up to you to provide them with the access they need. 

Secondly, you can do everyone an extra favor by keeping things tidy and replacing any bulbs that might be out. This way your inspector will be able to identify where everything is and will be able to tell if there is faulty wiring within the property. Preparing for an inspection is extremely helpful to the inspector and will aid your buyer with an informed report.

What We Look For During an Inspection

Our inspectors are trained to look for external and internal issues, some not visible to the naked eye. We inspect the roof, drainage around the property, foundation, plumbing, hidden pests, and mold. We even inspect air quality with exclusive radon testing Maryland and the surrounding service areas really need. 

We want to inform you of any problems or potential problems involving your investment property. With our thorough reports, we offer superior inspections for every customer. We put our customers first and are available if you have any questions at all. At Fox Mountain Property Inspections, we’re on your side.

Seth was great, very thorough and talked to us about what he was doing. He gave great advice for things to watch for. Definitely would recommend.
Roy Delgado—the inspector assigned to my future home—was very considerate in explaining the important points of his inspection. In great detail he described what the house needs to change and the positive findings of the house. His report helped me determine if I wanted to continue the purchase process. It especially helped that he considered speaking in Spanish when I didn't understand the English terms of inspection very well.

I can't say enough great things about him.My second inspection went better and was performed by the owner, Richard and he was every bit as thorough, professional and patient.Thank you Keith and Richard. I'll be using your company going forward and recommending you to friends and family.

I just had my first home inspection ever with Keith at Fox Mountain Property Inspections. The overall inspection took about 3 hours and it was obvious that he was carefully evaluating every part of the home. I absolutely appreciated his thoroughness and ability to explain the more complicated parts of the inspection. As a first time homebuyer without any inspection experience, Keith (and his report which was done within an hour of leaving the property) made it easy to understand what parts of the house need our attention. Thank you Keith and Fox Mountain Property Inspections!

Keith and Seth were fantastic during the inspection of our 100+ year old house. They were warm and friendly while being informative and thorough. We weren’t able to stay the entire time and Keith followed up with me afterwards to give a status update on the rest of the inspection. The report produced was complete and the pictures were great, and even the process to schedule and pay was seamless. I’ve had several home inspections done and Fox Mountain were some of the best!

I had the great pleasure of working with Keith for my July home inspection and I couldn’t be more pleased with his exceptional service. From start to finish, he demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise.He arrived punctually and thoroughly examined every aspect of the property. His attention to detail was truly impressive, and he took great care and time to answer my (many) questions about the house. He was super thorough in explaining all of his findings. It was evident that he had a deep knowledge of home construction and maintenance.What sets Keith apart is not only his technical competence but also his dedication to ensuring I understood the condition of the property. He provided valuable insights and recommendations, which gave me confidence in my home purchase decision. I can’t thank him enough for his outstanding work and would undoubtedly seek his services again in the future.

Incredibly knowledgeable and very thorough inspection. Richard even took the time to explain the inner workings of all the mechanical so we knew what to expect. It was a fantastic experience and you should absolutely call them for all your home inspection needs.
