There are a lot of elements that need to be inspected in a home, so the time taken to examine all these elements decides how long the home inspections will last. On an average a home inspection in Florida by a skilled home inspector takes around 2-3 hours to cover all interior & exterior elements along with installed systems.

Question 5

Can a home inspector inspect their own home?

While ethical concerns can prevent a home inspector in Florida from inspecting a relative’s property, the same is not applicable for their own property. There is no rule that says a home inspector cannot inspect their own home. In fact, they are the best judge for their home as they have the necessary training as well as the experience of inspecting several homes.
