Less experienced home inspectors may charge less while they learn their trade at your expense. Licensing is a minimum qualification. Make sure you ask for the resume of the actual person who will perform your home inspection! Let's put things in perspective: If you're buying a $350,000 home and the inspection fee is $600, that's .172% of the cost of the home! The cost of a New Jersey home inspection is a bargain! If the inspection turns up little wrong with the home (few do), you've bought some relatively inexpensive peace of mind. If the inspection finds serious problems (most do), then the few hundred dollars you invest in our home inspection could end up saving you many thousands of dollars.
