what's a condo inspection?

---

A condo home inspection is a comprehensive examination of a condominium unit's interior, systems, and components to assess its condition and identify any potential issues or defects. While similar in many ways to a traditional home inspection, there are some unique considerations when inspecting a condominium due to its shared ownership and building structure. Here's an overview of what a condo home inspection typically entails:
​

1. Interior Inspection: The inspector will thoroughly examine the interior of the condo unit, including the walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, and any built-in fixtures or appliances. They will look for signs of damage, wear and tear, and any issues that may need repair or maintenance.
2. Systems Inspection: The inspector will assess the various systems within the condo, such as electrical, plumbing, heating, and cooling. They will check for proper functioning, safety hazards, and any signs of leaks, electrical problems, or other issues.
3. Appliances and Fixtures: All appliances that come with the condo, such as the stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, and dryer, will be inspected to ensure they are in working order.
4. Structural Elements: While the condo owner typically doesn't have responsibility for the exterior of the building, the inspector may assess the interior structural elements, such as load-bearing walls, to ensure they are sound and free from defects.
5. Safety Considerations: Safety is a significant concern in condominiums. The inspector will look for safety issues, such as fire hazards, electrical problems, and carbon monoxide or smoke detector functionality.

It's important to note that the scope of a condo home inspection may vary depending on local regulations, the specific needs of the buyer or seller. Additionally, the inspector may not assess the building's exterior, roofing, or other structural elements that are the responsibility of the condominium association. A thorough condo inspection can provide valuable insights and help you make an informed decision about your condo purchase or sale.
