The practical answer
A recheck can verify whether specified work appears completed within the inspector's scope. A builder's statement that a repair is done is different from an independent revisit.
Your next step
Arrange a recheck for findings that warrant it.
How this fits your SWFL home search
A new home still deserves careful evaluation. Independent inspections help identify observed conditions within the professional's scope, while municipal inspections serve their own compliance function.
Arrange inspection access and timing under the builder agreement, and use appropriately qualified professionals for technical findings.
Turn the answer into a decision
- Identify the exact home, homesite, and stage of the purchase. Bring the current written information into your comparison.
- Arrange a recheck for findings that warrant it.
- Record the response, the person responsible, and any deadline. If an answer changes the purchase cost, schedule, or scope, ask where that change is documented.
- Keep unresolved items visible when comparing alternatives. Ask the appropriate qualified professional to assess questions outside a consultant’s scope.
