About

Home Inspections are performed in accordance to the STANDARDS OF PRACTICE of the International Association Of Certified Home Inspectors which is posted at https://www.nachi.org.  My certification number is: NACHI105070580. 

These SOP contain certain limitations, exceptions, and exclusions and the home buyer should understand what a home inspection is, and also what it is not.

My home inspection is approximately four to six hours long, and the Client and Agent are encouraged to attend all or part of the inspection.

The PDF narrative report with photos is 2nd to none and is ((emailed to the Client and Agent on the same day of the inspection)), which is very detailed and thorough, easy to read and understand, and includes numerous items and descriptions most other inspectors don't include in their reports.
