Home inspection in Swisher.

Swisher simply did not take the boom. It incorporated on July 25, 1933 and has grown about 4% recently while Tiffin more than quadrupled in twenty years and Fairfax and Ely posted growth in the double and triple digits. So a Swisher buyer is almost always buying existing housing, not new construction, which flips the inspection priorities: end-of-life furnaces, water heaters and roofs, original electrical branch circuits behind newer panels, aging sewer laterals, and layered renovations — rather than the grading and builder-detail defects that dominate new subdivisions.

Plan on two to three hours for an average home; larger, older or multi-unit properties run longer because there is simply more to document.
