Short answer: yes.
While it’s not mandatory, attending your inspection allows you to ask questions in real time and better understand the home’s condition. Reading a report is helpful — but seeing concerns firsthand provides clarity that photos alone cannot.
You’ll learn where the main water shutoff is located, how to maintain HVAC filters, how attic ventilation works, and what areas may require monitoring over time.
Think of your inspection as a crash course in homeownership.
