How long should my Main Line Home Inspection Take? A house inspection typically takes two to four hours to complete. This can vary based on the size of the home, as well as its age and design. A two to three-story home with 5 bathrooms, a finished basement, and an attic would take a lot longer than a two-bedroom ranch style home or condo. Usually, you have five to ten business days to conduct the inspection and request any repairs in writing to the seller. Therefore, it’s important to know your inspector’s availability and how quickly they can complete the report to make sure it can be provided in the timeframe needed in the agreement of sale.
