THE ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD: WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN PURCHASING A NEW HOME

When you think you’ve finally found the home of your dreams, you may not enjoy imagining it as a disaster waiting to happen. But, if you purchase your home without having a thorough roof inspection done beforehand, that’s exactly what it may be. Knowing the condition of a home before you buy it can save you lots of hassle and money in the future. Let’s take a look at why you should inspect a home’s roof pre-purchase.

Even in today’s sluggish housing market, buying a home is a sizable investment. That’s why making sure that the home you buy is in the best shape possible is of the utmost importance. Given that the roof of your home is a major structural component, you should know if hidden problems lay within before you receive the deed. This allows you to take any problems with the roofing into consideration when the negotiating price and terms of the sale.

Having your roof inspected by professional roofers in the Northbrook, Naperville, or Glenview areas is the best way to ensure you’re getting your money’s worth. Roofers are specially trained to identify problems in roofs and can make recommendations that may save you thousands of dollars on the sale of your home.

Roofers will look at a few key areas of your home during the roof inspection. First, they’ll examine the exterior roof structure and materials to look for flaws, such as sagging, damaged shingles, bad flashing, or rotting. They’ll also inspect the attic and interior ceiling for signs of leaks, mold growth, or previous roofing problems.
