Let's put home inspection fees in perspective: If you're buying a $400,000 house and the inspection fee is $700, that's less than .2% of the cost of the house! Most real estate agencies charge 3% to 6% to sell a home, that would be $12,000 to $24,000 for a $400,000 house!n South Florida a home inspection for a average 2000 sf home will cost about 400-450. It will include termite and roof. A windstorm mitigation inspection will be required by the Insurance company for discounts...the cost is 100-150.
