My Promise to You
Choosing the right home inspector can
be difficult. Unlike most professionals,
you probably will not get to meet me until
after I am hired. A thorough inspection
depends on the individual inspectors
training, dedication and own effort. I will
give you my very best effort. This is my
promise to you.

What is a Whole House Home
Inspection?
A typical home inspection is a 3 to 4 hour
non-invasive inspection that reviews the
condition of the home’s visible structure,
it’s major components, exterior and interior systems. A Home Inspection
Report is generated after completion of
the inspection to indicate what may need
major repair or replacement. This report
will also provide the client the opportunity
to become more familiar with the functions and condition of the home. A Home
Owners Handbook is included with every
report as well.

for complete details.
Code of Ethics / Integrity
I am dedicated to representing only my
client, and will always act in good faith
toward my client. I will avoid all conflicts
of interest by making Home Inspections
my only business. The information in my
inspection will be confidential and not
disclosed to any other party without the
approval of my client.

Qualities to Expect from a
Professional Home Inspector
The professional home inspector should
be very knowledgeable, well-trained,
and able to communicate his findings to
the client in a fair, honest, clear concise
manner. InterNACHI inspectors are
required to attend continuing education
courses annually. As with any profession
or service, EXPERIENCE SUPPORTED
BY QUALIFIED KNOWLEDGE is the
most important factor to consider when
choosing a home inspector.

review of the homes condition whether
