Minimal Checklist
With an Assurance Home Inspection, you can
rest Assured that all items are inspected and reported on as per our
professional Standards of
Practice. We certainly hope you will go with a professional Home
Inspection from Assurance Home Inspection Group. If for some reason you choose
not to have a certified professional do your home inspection at the very least you should
have a Minimal Checklist available to you. We have provided one for you here.
You may copy and paste into a Word document or Notepad or you can download the .pdf
file here.
