The Top 5 Red Flags to Watch for on a Home Inspection Report
Not all inspection issues are deal-breakers—but some can cost thousands if overlooked. Here are the top five red flags to pay attention to.
1. Foundation Issues
Look for cracks, sticking doors, or sloping floors—especially in Texas clay soils.
2. Roof Damage
Missing shingles, leaks, or signs of age can be expensive to fix.
3. Electrical Problems
Outdated panels, faulty wiring, or overloaded circuits are safety hazards.
4. Plumbing Leaks
Check for water stains, low water pressure, and slow drains.
5. HVAC Problems
An older or poorly maintained system can mean big replacement costs.
Bottom Line
A thorough inspection and expert guidance can help you navigate issues without losing the deal.
