SELLERS PRE-LISTING
Are you selling your home? Let me inspect it before you even list it.  A Seller's Pre-listing Inspection alerts you to any defects or problems with your home so that you can address them before prospective buyers discover them.  You can then take the time you need to obtain reasonable repair estimates.  Use your inspection report  as a great marketing tool, which may even convince the prospective buyer to waive his inspection contingency.  Avoid 11th-hour negotiations and delays, and justify your full asking price by having your home for sale inspected now. 

ANNUAL HOME MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
This inspection helps you understand and plan for the demands of maintaining your home properly.  Some tasks are seasonal, and some require more frequent attention.  I'll identify any outstanding issues, and educate you about what should be done to keep your home in top condition year round. 

MULTI-UNIT HOUSING INSPECTION
I can inspect your investment or rental property having up to four separate residential units. Please contact me for more information.  
MOBILE/MANUFACTURED HOME INSPECTION
I will inspect your mobile or manufactured home for defects that are specific to those types of structures, including fire safety issues, and the plumbing, heating and electrical systems, as well as the home's body, frame and foundation requirements.  I will also check for affixed seals the certify that the home was built in compliance with the U.S. federal housing codes. 


​

RADON TESTING
Although radon is a naturally occurring gas in or environment, it is also the second leading cause of lung cancer deaths in the U.S.  The Surgeon General and the Environmental Protection Agency recommend testing for radon because one out of every 15 homes has unsafe levels indoors.  Millions of Americans have had their homes tested, and you should, too. 

MOLD TESTING
Unchecked mold indoors can damage the structure of a home, cause wood rot, and ruin drywall.  Most importantly, mold can cause health problems.  A professional mold test starts with a through inspection of your property.  I will investigate any signs of past or present water intrusions, which can promote mold growth, and I will take samples of any suspected mold for laboratory analysis. 


WOOD-DESTROYING ORGANISM INSPECTION
Wood-destroying insects can hide and go undetected for a long time, but there are many telltale signs for different species that can cause damage.  I'll inspect your home for evidence of infestation now before it becomes an expensive problem later.
