When do I Notify the Home Inspector to Schedule the Inspection?

You should contact your home inspector as soon as you are notified that you are under contract and the contract is binding. Before you call anyone to celebrate, call your inspector to set up the appointment, then you can go back to celebrating. You only have the number of days listed in your “Due Diligence Period” to have the inspection performed and if you wait around, you may not get an appointment because good inspectors book up quickly.
