Who pays for the home inspection is a common question—and the answer depends on the situation!

Typically, the buyer covers the cost of the inspection, but in certain cases, it can become a negotiation point, with the seller agreeing to pay. Some sellers also opt to get their own inspections done before listing, helping them address issues up front. Even still, buyers often prefer hiring their own inspector for peace of mind.
