In this page we will discuss the Mose home inspection process.
A professional home inspection is conducted based on industry standards of practice. At Mose Home Inspection Services we base ourselves on is the InterNACHI Quebec standards of practice. On this page we use the term “home” but the following equally applies to condominiums as well.
At Mose Home Inspection Services we begin our home inspections from the outside. There are a lot of reasons for this, not the least of which being we often arrive before the brokers or the buyer so this allows us to get our work done as soon as possible.
Being careful not to disturb anything your inspector will walk around the property to carefully observe various aspects of the condition of the homes exterior. Your inspector will not pull or pick on anything but will use their keen eyes and perhaps a pair of binoculars to discern what they believe the good and not so good aspects of the home are.
The Steps of Your Exterior Home Inspection
Exterior Structures
We next turn our attention to the exterior structures attached to the property. These structures include;
Walls
Homes in the greater Montreal, Laval and South Shore region take a beating during our legendary winters. Very cold and wet winters and hot humid summers take their toll on building surfaces. Your Mose home inspector will inspect the wall coverings such as;
Exterior Property
The surrounding land that the home is located on will also be inspected to understand the impact the terrain has on the home’s condition. We will observe and report on;
Windows
Then they will inspect the windows, (sills, caulking, general condition and age).
Doors
All doors including the garage will be inspected to insure they are I good working order. Items like the seal, lock function, hinges, sill and motor function (for garage doors) will be verified.

I like the service from Alexander Funhstein, he was on time, and took the time to explain every single detail despite the wind and cold weather. He didn't rush to perform the inspection, he pays attention to every detail. The report was very written in a very clear way with references with good explanation. I'm very please with the results, therefore I will be recommending the services from MOSE Home Inspection to anyone who will be interested in performing an inspection. I will also post a feedback on Google to compensate on the perception for the inspector.

Professional reception when I called to make an appointment and and time-slot was quickly reserved. Inspector was knowledgeable, friendly and took care of my needs without getting distracted by the seller. The inspector was also smart enough to keep certain comments to himself until he and I were alone, very appreciated and extremely professional. All in all, a great experience. Report is clear and concise.

The reports are detailed yet simple to understand. The inclusion of estimated costs is very important.
