non-invasively examines the condition of a home, often in
connection with the sale of that home. This process is referred to as a home
inspection.
An inspector will check the roof, basement, heating system, water heater,
air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, electrical, and many other aspects
of buildings looking for damage which may require expensive repairs, as well as
fire, safety, and health hazards. Think of a home inspector as a detective
searching throughout the house for clues that lead to a conclusion of the home's
overall condition.
A home inspector is sometimes confused with a
real estate appraiser. A home inspector determines the condition of a
structure, whereas an appraiser determines the value of a property.  10 Most Common Questions Asked About the Home Inspection Business and More

Pre-delivery inspection
The pre-delivery inspection, which generally applies to newly-built
homes, is a real estate term that means the buyer has the option (or
requirement, depending upon how the real estate contract is written)
to inspect the property prior to closing or settlement. These
inspections generally takes place up to a week before a closing, and
they generally allow buyers the first opportunity to inspect their new
home. Additionally, the inspection is to ensure that all terms of the
contract have been met, that the home is substantially completed, and
that major items are in working order.

Along with a representative of the
builder (generally the
construction supervisor or foreman), the buyers may be accompanied by
a home inspector of their choice. Any noted defects are added to a
punch list for completion prior to closing. Often a second inspection
is conducted to ensure that the defects have been corrected.
Many local governments within the United States and Canada require
that new-home builders provide a home warranty for a limited period,
and this typically results in home builders conducting a pre-delivery
inspection with the buyer.
In a resale situation, this type of inspection is often termed the
"final walk-through", and, based on the contract's provisions, it
allows the buyer the opportunity to inspect the home prior to closing
to ensure that agreed-upon repairs or improvements have been
completed.
