If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.
