HOME INSPECTIONSWhy Choose Us?
Buying and owning a home or condo is like assembling a jigsaw puzzle. Some of the pieces you've assembled so far are: Location, Vintage, Style, Square Footage, Price, and Features. The last piece you need to plug in is CONDITION!
Cheaper can cost you THOUSANDS!
The cost of an inspection is approximately 1/5 to 1/10 of 1% of the sales price of most conventional sales. This is what you and your agent/attorney will use to negotiate terms, credits or if it’s a real dog, your earnest money back. Compare our reports to our competition and decide if it is worth the gamble.
That's why you need an unbiased opinion from an experienced and knowledgeable home inspector. Since 1999, Domicile Consulting has inspected thousands of homes and condos throughout the Chicagoland area.
Domicile Consulting performs HUNDREDS of property inspections every year, but that's not all we do.
- We can also provide condo and townhome associations with an objective inspection of the façade, roof and “common” areas to better anticipate repairs, budgeting and critical safety items that require immediate attention. Too often the powers that be (i.e. the “Board”) don’t fully understand the construction or repair process and “just goes with” a prescribed repair by a contractor. We can help determine if those repairs are necessary as well as prioritize what is truly needed.
- For those about to renovate or build a home, we can help specify materials, methods, and energy saving practices to help you get your hard earned money working harder!
- Are you having moisture or leaking problems in your home or in the common areas of your condominium? We have extensive experience in tracking down moisture issues and the latest in detection technology. Our Thermal Imaging Camera (TIC) can detect the minor changes in surface temperatures that may indicate leaking, condensation, or other moisture issues.
- Preparing to Sell? Why not get a leg up on the competition with a pre-listing inspection to help identify red flags and alleviate future buyer concerns? This investment usually pays back in spades with less buyer apprehension during their own inspection.
Whether it's a turn of the century Victorian in Downers Grove, a two or three flat in Roscoe Village, or a new construction condo in River North, you'll be glad you went with Domicile Consulting.
