In this episode of Real Estate with Brenda K, Brenda sits down with Mike Hogan of Hogan Home Inspections to discuss one of the most important steps in buying a home... the home inspection.

From what inspectors look for and the tools they use to common maintenance issues, electrical systems, roofing, insulation, moisture concerns, and buyer expectations, Mike explains what a home inspection can—and cannot—tell you about a property. Brenda and Mike also discuss industry standards, inspector qualifications, thermal imaging technology, and why understanding the difference between a defect and routine maintenance is essential when purchasing a home.

Whether you're buying your first home, purchasing an older property, or simply want to better understand the home inspection process, this episode offers practical advice, professional insight, and valuable information every Halifax buyer should know.
