We understand the unique aspects of townhouse ownership including party walls, HOA structures, and shared system impacts.

Townhouses typically involve more owner maintenance responsibility including roofs, exterior walls, and sometimes foundations depending on HOA rules. Condos usually have more limited owner responsibility. We tailor the inspection to your specific ownership structure and HOA requirements.
It depends on your HOA structure. Some townhouses have individually owned roofs (we inspect), while others have HOA-maintained roofs (we visually observe for obvious issues). We'll clarify this based on your specific situation.
We thoroughly inspect all party walls from your side for cracks, water damage, fire separation integrity, and sound transmission concerns. If issues originate from the neighbor's unit, you'll need to coordinate repairs with them and potentially the HOA.
We provide general guidance based on typical townhouse structures, but the definitive answer is in your HOA's CC&Rs (covenants, conditions, and restrictions). We strongly recommend reviewing these documents with attention to maintenance responsibilities.
Yes, if you have an attached garage as part of your unit, we inspect it thoroughly including door operation, safety features, electrical, storage areas, and connections to living space.
