A general home inspection by HomeRite Real Estate Inspections is an independent, unbiased review
and report on a home's systems, components and their condition. Consumers and real estate
professionals should expect no less than full professionalism, education, competence,
credentials, knowledge, and courtesy.
A detailed home inspection usually takes two to three hours or longer, depending on the
home's
age and square footage. We recommend that you be present at your home inspection so that you can
ask your inspector any questions and to look at any areas needing maintenance or repair.
Mold can develop quickly, often within 24 hours if conditions are ideal for mold growth. The
health affects of mold exposure are related to mold spores and mold toxins. Mold becomes a
health concern when spores become airborne and are inhaled.
Mold is generally divided into three groups based on their health effects: Allergenic,
Pathogenic, or Toxic.
