Is a home inspection worth it for a brand-new Woodbury build from the builder?

Yes, even on a brand-new home. It's a common myth that new construction is flawless, but homes built fast during a development boom routinely have missed details, and the municipal code inspections only confirm minimums, not workmanship or your interests. An independent inspector can catch issues before closing, like missing attic insulation, improperly fastened decks, grading that already slopes toward the foundation, plumbing or HVAC oversights, and incomplete radon rough-ins, while the builder is still on the hook to fix them. Even better is a pre-drywall phase inspection, done while framing, wiring, and rough-ins are still visible, since problems vanish once drywall covers the walls. And don't forget the 11-month warranty inspection near the end of your first year, timed to catch settling cracks and other items while the builder's warranty still covers repairs at no cost. Spending a little now on independent eyes protects a major purchase. To plan inspections for your new Woodbury home, build a free instant quote online.
