Home Evaluations

A home evaluation is less formal than a standard Home Inspection. This option gives clients an opportunity to have the inspector walk through the home while making observations and offering recommendations. There are no written reports or pictures. This non invasive walkthrough does not include the use of any trade tools or ladders. This is an ideal option for current homeowners that are hoping to better understand some deferred maintenance items on their home. It also can assist them in preparing their home before putting it on the market. Also, homebuyers may be able to utilize this service prior to putting an offer in on a home.
