After The Inspection - ReportsYour Home Inspection Report will be sent to you within 24 hours, but generally by the next morning. Whether you are buying, selling, renting, or maintaining your home, Aquarisces Inspections provides professional and quality service from the moment you call us. Our certified home inspector will walk through your home with you and teach you as much as you want to learn. We follow the Standards of Practice for home inspectors established by InterNACHI, the leading home inspection association. After we walk through the home together, we will explain the general condition of the home and systems with you and your agent. We will talk through any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read Spectora report, which will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. From that report, you will be able to see the items we discussed, with images for reference.
