Home Inspections Have Unforgiving Deadlines
When you are buying a home, the inspection contingency period is typically 7 to 10 days. Within that window, you need to find an available inspector, confirm they cover your area, verify their qualifications, get pricing, and schedule the inspection at a time when you or your agent can attend.
In hot markets, good home inspectors are booked 1 to 2 weeks out. Missing your inspection window can mean waiving the contingency (risky) or losing the deal entirely. The pressure to book quickly often means accepting the first inspector available rather than the best one.
Complicating matters, many home purchases require multiple inspections: general, pest, radon, sewer line, chimney. Coordinating all of these within a short window, with different inspectors, at times that work for the seller's access schedule, is a logistical puzzle solved almost entirely by phone.

Real Example: Booking Under Contract Deadline
"I just went under contract on a house at 845 Elm Drive. Inspection contingency expires February 20. Call these 3 home inspectors and find who can do a general inspection plus radon test before February 18. Need pricing and what is included."
- Call inspector 1 — availability before Feb 18, pricing, radon test
- Call inspector 2 — same questions
- Call inspector 3 — same questions
- Compare availability, pricing, and included services
Inspector 1: Available Feb 16, $450 general + $150 radon, ASHI certified. Inspector 2: Earliest is Feb 22 (too late). Inspector 3: Available Feb 17, $500 all-inclusive (general + radon + pest), InterNACHI certified. Two viable options with comparison provided.
