No matter what we decide to do we’ll still get the home inspection before the first year is up.
Thanks
In a sense, we actually did both. The builder will walk through to do an inspection before you move in, marking anything you/they find that needs attention. For a year, you are to keep watch and note anything that needs attention. Then, DeAngelo did a great job inspecting our home. The Villages took care of any issues he found. Be aware of your warranties (ie: windows & roof) and note issues before the warranties run out,
