Questions or tips for property inspections

Dave Kush

Good afternoon!

I am purchasing a duplex and I'm having the inspection done. I'm familiar with this process from single family homes, but wondering if anyone out there has specific questions or tips they would recommend for a duplex situation. Obviously, we'll be looking very closely at utilities and common spaces, but would welcome any other feedback or advice. Questions I should ask the inspector or things I should specifically request?

    Make sure the duplex is properly permitted and zoned. You never know how the original construction was done.
