Home inspection is not required by mortgage lenders and it is voluntary. Home inspection is highly recommended. Average home inspection costs $300 depending on the area but the $300 is well worth its weight in gold. No matter how new a home is, there can be defects that is not visible by the human eye and home inspectors can normally detect potential foundation issues, structural issues, and mechanical issues. Here is an article on home inspection:
