Planning your Melissa inspection

Keep the inspection aligned with your deadline.

For a Melissa purchase, the right inspection timing depends on whether the house is occupied, still under construction or approaching a warranty milestone. Share your dates early so access and availability can be confirmed.

A closer look at Melissa

Neighborhoods. Homes.
Details that matter.

Local context helps you ask better questions about the home you are buying.

Liberty

Liberty is identified on Melissa’s city neighborhood maps. For an existing home, ask about repairs and replacements made since the original construction and share any recurring concerns with Nick.

North Creek

North Creek also appears on the city’s neighborhood maps. For a new build, coordinate directly with the builder so an inspection occurs at a stage when the relevant components are accessible.

What we look for

Construction details worth a closer look.

These are inspection concerns related to age, materials and workmanship. A neighborhood name or construction date alone does not establish a defect in a particular home.

01

Pre-drywall access

Framing and rough-in work must be ready before an inspection, while still visible. Once finishes cover components, the final inspection has a different scope of observation.

02

Finished-home installations

Visible plumbing leaks, equipment drain concerns and gaps at exterior openings are examples of items worth reviewing before possession.

03

First-year follow-up

Keep notes about new staining or changes in operation after move-in. An 11-month inspection documents accessible findings for discussion before your warranty deadline.
