Common Myths and Facts about Home Inspections
It's that time of year!
Everyone's favorite Florida season is here!
The sun is shining, the weather is warm, and that potential home you've had your eye on is finally on the market at your asking price.

Stone Eagle Home Inspections offers Home inspections that provide valuable information about the general condition of a home, outlining areas requiring minor and major repairs and pinpointing deficiencies in building structure. The complex task of assessing a home is more difficult because of some of the common myths attached to the process of home inspection.
For the real facts on what you can expect here's a few of the worst misconceptions, along with some helpful tips from the experienced inspectors from Stone Eagle Home Inspections
MYTH:
An appraisal is just as comprehensive as a home inspection; or, if I have a really good appraisal, it won't be necessary to have a home inspection.
FACT:
Home inspections and home appraisals are NOT the same. As ridiculous as it sounds, some homeowners end up assuming a comprehensive appraisal has covered all the bases. Home inspections are critical in ensuring that you receive the quality of home that you pay for.
MYTH:
All home inspectors are licensed and my inspector says he's certified - so I'm safe.
FACT:
Only 30 states require licensing, but even licensed inspectors will vary in their qualifications. Some inspectors get all their training online and never complete a field test or take a comprehensive examination. That is why it is critically important that you choose a home inspector that you can trust and that is certified by InterNACHI (International Association of Certified Home Inspectors). Stone Eagle Home Inspection are InterNACHI certified to provide home inspections to the home buyers of Spring Hill, Hudson, Tarpon Springs & New Port Richey, Florida and surrounding areas.
