Home inspection coming up? A little preparation can make the process smoother, more accurate, and more helpful for everyone involved.
Before inspection day:
1. Make sure there’s clear access to important areas like the attic, electrical panel, water heater, HVAC system, garage, crawl space, side gates, and locked spaces.
2. Make sure utilities are on so the inspector can properly test the home’s major systems.
3. Write down your questions ahead of time, especially around big-ticket items like the roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, leaks, and maintenance concerns.

Inspecting a 100+ year-old property requires more than a standard walkthrough.
This inspection focused on understanding what’s original, what’s been updated, and what needs regular maintenance to help the property continue functioning safely over time.
From older wiring that needed to be verified, to roof debris near the clay tile, to guest areas like steps, railings, patios, gates, and walkways, every detail helps tell the current story of the property.
We document what’s visible, test what we can, and give the client a clearer understanding of the building before moving forward.
Whether it’s historic, commercial, or residential, a good inspection gives you clarity.
