Home Inspector in Vassar, MI

Buyers, sellers and lenders all need something a little different from a home inspector in Vassar. Fisher Home Inspections has handled all three since 1997. We do buyer and seller inspections, plus FHA, VA and RD inspections with the water testing those loans require.

FHA, VA and RD Inspections for Vassar Buyers

A big share of Vassar-area buyers finance with USDA Rural Development, FHA or VA loans. Each program has its own property standards, and homes on private wells almost always need a water test before the lender will close. We handle the inspection and the testing together.

Water Testing Lenders Require in Vassar

We collect samples and send them to a state-certified lab for water quality testing that meets loan requirements. Results come back to us, and we explain what they mean. One company, one point of contact, no chasing a separate water tester while your lender waits.

Homes Near the Cass River in Vassar

The Cass River runs right through Vassar, and older residents still talk about the 1986 flood. Homes on lower ground near the river can carry the history of past water in their basements and framing. We look for water lines, replaced materials, foundation movement and moisture readings that don't add up. If something points to hidden damage, mold testing can be added.

Seller Inspections Before a Vassar Listing

A pre-listing inspection lets Vassar sellers see their house the way a buyer's inspector will. Fix the easy items, disclose the rest and price accordingly. Deals hold together better when nothing big turns up in week three.

As a home inspector in Vassar who works both sides, we write seller reports just as plainly as buyer reports.

Lender Inspections and Construction Draws Near Vassar

Banks use us for construction draw inspections on new builds, confirming each stage is complete before the next payment goes out. We also do bank foreclosure inspections, so lenders know the condition of a property before it goes back on the market.

Septic Systems on Tuscola County Properties

Outside the city, most Vassar-area homes run on septic. Our septic inspection checks the tank and how the drain field is performing, so a failing system doesn't become your surprise.

Radon and Thermal Imaging on Vassar Inspections

We include a thermal scan on every inspection, which finds hidden moisture, insulation gaps and electrical hot spots. For homes with basements or crawlspaces, we recommend radon testing too, set up during the same visit.

Commercial and Rental Inspections in Vassar

Downtown buildings, small offices, rental houses and duplexes around Vassar get the same careful look. Our commercial inspections cover the roof, structure and mechanical systems, written for owners and lenders.
