Unfortunately, new homes can also have conditions.

Just because a home is newly built, whether still being completed or months old, numerous conditions can still be present.  Often many issues are not caught before the home is completed and the unsuspecting buyers move in.  Let us help you catch these issues before they cause dangerous or costly conditions.
