Freddie Mac's Homebuyer's Kit
The purpose of this kit is to give you the tools you need to select and maintain the right home for you...this kit will explain how to conduct your own consumer home inspection with an easy-to-use, step-by-step approach. Once you’ve evaluated your results, you’ll be better equipped to make a wise decision.

The consumer home inspection does not replace the professional home inspection. You do the consumer home inspection before making an offer to purchase a home. Once you conduct your own consumer home inspection and make a decision to buy a particular home, you will sign a contract and have the home you’ve selected professionally inspected.

The professional home inspector gives you an objective and comprehensive report before closing. In addition, you may want to have the home tested for possible environmental hazards which are not usually visable, including, lead in the water, lead in paint, asbestos, radon or other toxic materials.
