When I do a Home Inspection, I look everywhere I can look, operate whatever I can operate, open accessible panels, evaluating each systems performance individually and how that system interacts with the other systems in the home. I do this to simulate how you might operate the house under certain conditions to try to make the home reveal a weaknesses or flaw it may have. My Home Inspection report findings are then reported to you verbally at the conclusion of the Home Inspection and than later in the Home Inspection report. It is not uncommon to also receive 80 - 150 pictures that were taken during your home inspection. My goal is help you make an informed and confident buying decision.

Buying a New or Pre-owned Home and

First time home buyers

We see the signs everywhere. The looking, the bidding, the process is consuming.  Don't get caught up in the frenzy and don't make a final decision till the home has been inspected by a licensed and certified home inspector.   

If the utilities have been OFF over 6 months or a year, a code safety inspection may be required before the utilities can be restored.

Even with the utilities OFF a Home Inspection can tell you many things about a home, things you may not have even knew to look for.
