Pre-Listing Inspection

****Sellers, ask about our Home Staging Consultation Offer!!!

When you're selling your home you want it to show at its best. The less an inspector finds, the better your home will look to the prospective buyer. Our pre-inspection of your homes components will help to detect minor and major defects before they become a bargaining chip for the home purchaser. A pre-inspected home is a home you can have confidence in that there will be no 'surprises' or expensive demands from a prospective home purchaser. You will have peace of mind that your home is going to show and sell at its best!

Buyer Inspections

This inspection provides the buyer peace of mind and insight into the condition of the home, and what, if any, corrections or repairs may be needed.  We want to insure that your home is in favorable operating condition before you move in, and you have some idea of what may be required in the future. We use an easy to read and understand reporting system. Our computer-generated report includes digital photos. Our report includes both a marginal and defective summary. Your detailed report will be emailed to you usually the same day. All major components of the home and it's structure will be inspected.

One Year Warranty Inspection

Most new construction home builders offer a one year home warranty on the materials and workmanship of your home. After this one year has passed home owners generally have no recourse with the builder should any defects be found. We provide a thorough inspection that will assist you with a final 'punch-list' to bring to the builder's attention BEFORE the warranty expires.

Investor Property Inspection

Recommended for property investors whether you intend to rent the property or repair and resell. Will help you to determine whether a property could entail expensive repairs that would make it a poor choice for your ROI. For rental properties, costly repairs may be avoided when you have bi-yearly inspections to keep  you informed of any repair or maintenance issues. It also aids in the budgeting of replacement items.

Insurance Inspection

Insurance Companies often require a Four-Point Inspection prior to insuring older properties. The inspection is generally an overview of the roof, plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems.  This is not an in-depth or complete home inspection but is for the insurance company's informational purposes.


Foreclosure Inspections

A professional home inspection can assist the banks, mortgage lenders, and the buyer by informing them of property issues that could be very costly if left unattended, such as electrical issues, plumbing  or roof leaks. Inspecting first will help you to be aware of any unforseen and costly repairs.
