What affects home inspection cost in the DMV?
Most DMV inspections fall between $399 and $849 for the base inspection. Three factors drive where your specific quote lands.
Home size
Square footage is the largest single factor. A 1,500 sqft townhome takes 2–2.5 hours; a 5,000 sqft estate can take 4–5 hours.
Add-on services
Most DMV buyers add radon ($199) and termite ($119). Sewer scope ($599) is critical for older homes. Mold testing ($279) for basements and homes with water damage history.
Bundle savings
Bundling add-ons saves $50–$200 versus booking separately. The Peace of Mind Bundle (Inspection + Radon + Termite) is the most popular at $50 savings.
Travel
Any property within 50 miles of DC or Baltimore is included at no travel fee. +$50 outside that radius. +$75 for Eastern Shore. No surprises.
