Los Angeles #1 Trusted Home Inspection Company
Delivering Home Inspection Services to California Residents Since 1994
Residential inspections tend to be unique from commercial inspections in that they involve people who’s families are about to create priceless memories in their new place called home. In other words, it’s not just about numbers and net profits. We take pride in guiding our clients through the inspection process by performing a thorough, unbiased inspection of the major building components, providing a clear report of the property’s condition, and arming our clients with the knowledge they need to make a more informed decision about purchasing the property.

Why do I Need a Residential Property Inspection?
Aside from the reasoning that you are about to rest your precious bodies under tons of wood, metal and stone – the inspection process is also effective in saving you some of that hard earned money. See below how the numbers don’t lie. Those who pay for inspections save on average about 100 times the cost of their one-time inspection fee over the life of their property.
An average home in Southern California costs around $400,000 (per 2011) with about $40k in immediate maintenance/repair costs that go unnoticed to the naked eye. With a fair report as your tool for negotiation you can better strategize your purchase to make sure that no one gets left in the dark. The logic is simple, and it’s fair both ways.
Residential Inspections
The purpose of the residential inspection is to provide you with information regarding the general condition of the property to ensure safety and correct maintenance strategy. Keep in mind that a home inspection is a general survey and basic operation of these systems and excludes systems or components which are not easily accessible. In other words, we’re not taring down your walls to see what’s behind them, your toddlers (or over zealous friends) will do that for you.
