About Home Inspections

Homes in the Tampa Bay area can be old, bungalow-styled, or brand new so your home inspection report can vary drastically. Depending on the home, we could find evidence of termites, structural issues, or mold issues. This is because Florida is a very humid environment. Also, Florida homes tend to flex and move frequently since we are closer to sea level. Waypoint Property Inspection can help you with your home inspection throughout and Tampa Bay so you can have peace of mind.

How Much Does A Home Inspection Cost in Tampa?

Home Inspection Costs can vary depending on the size and age of the home. For example, a smaller home that is relatively new might only cost about $350. On the other hand, a much larger home that was built in the 1920s would take a lot longer to inspect. Therefore, home inspection fees could be above $1,000. Read more about home inspection costs.

Where do you service?

You can find a list of cities/counties we service at the service area page!

Does An Inspector Need To Come Back Out To Re-Inspect After Repairs Have Been Completed?

Yes and no. You are not required to have a re-inspection after an inspection. However, in some cases, you may opt to do so or need to. For example, with a four-point inspection, you may need a re-inspection to verify repairs have been made for insurance purposes. Additionally, after repairs have been made on a home you are purchasing, you may opt to have a re-inspection to verify the seller had the repairs completed professionally.

We do charge for re-inspections for a nominal fee.

Can You Tell Us How Much Repairs Will Cost?

The short answer is no. While home inspectors on-site may give you a range for certain repairs, we are not contractors, and repair pricing tends to fluctuate depending on your area, the economy, and the company. Ultimately, you should speak with your Realtor and ask for recommendations for contractors to inquire with.
