$299.00 Home Inspection With Pest Inspection For Homes Up To 2100 Sq. Ft. Built After 1955. By Providing Superior Services With Reasonable Fees I Have Created A Long List Of Satisfied Clients That Continues To Grow

I Bring Everything I Have Learned In 40 Year Of Home Building To Every Home Inspection 

 

Builders make better inspectors

Hours of classroom training can not compare to years of hands on home building experience. But hours of classroom training combined with years of construction experience can make a great inspector. As a licensed general contractor and home inspector I am qualified to comment on many issues beyond the Washington State SOP including the cost of repairs. A home inspector that also holds a contractors license can by law provide more services and opinions than a home inspector that holds no additional professional licenses. Getting this kind of advice is absolutely essential if you’re buying a foreclosure or short sale that may have been vandalized or neglected, and the repairs might run into the tens of thousands of dollars.                          

State Law  Home Inspector shall Not provide services that constitute the unauthorized practice of any profession that requires a special license when the inspector does not hold that license.

 

My business philosophy is simple. I inspect your home as if my own family was going to live in it. You'll learn things about the home you wouldn't find out any other way. I take the time to explain the systems and components of the home to you, answer any questions you may have and I'm available for questions even after you move in.

 State Law Concerning Agent Referrals Of Home Inspectors 

As of January 30, 2009, the Washington Administrative Code requires real estate salespersons and brokers to disclose relationships with home inspectors to clients when providing referrals. When a buyers’ or sellers’ agent refers an inspector, the agent must provide written notice to the client of any prior business or familial relationship. This disclosure must occur before a referred inspector provides any services. The Changing Business Practices Subcommittee of the Washington Real Estate Commission finalized wording for the rule throughout 2008. The Legislature reacted to allegations that home inspectors colluded with agents to overlook problems. In these cases, a buyer would receive a clean report from a home inspector only to later find structural damage or significant omissions in the inspection. In some instances, agents would not recommend quality home inspectors and instead recommend or compel clients to choose from their approved list of inspectors. Complaints were not frequent but they had the potential to harm the credibility of the majority of agents who make honest referrals to their clients.“The new regulation is designed to make sure there is disclosure if a prior business relationship exists between an agent and an inspector,” said Cate Moyé, Chair of the Changing Business Practices Subcommittee, Owner of Windermere Valley, Inc. and Liberty Lake, Inc. A familial relationship exists if the agent and inspector are related in any way. The term business relationship applies if the agent and inspector have done business together.

 I believe that consumers have the right to expect the highest standards of integrity, thoroughness, and effectiveness from their home inspector. I back up my promise of a complete home inspection by including Errors and Omissions insurance and Professional Liability Insurance. All of my inspection reports must be thorough, authentic and stand up to critical review. I continue to build my reputation one inspection at a time to ensure that you get the quality service you deserve.

Bank Owned Homes

Many home buyers are under the impression that a home inspection should not be done on a foreclosed or bank owned home because they are sold" as is" That would be a big mistake. Bank owned forclosed homes often do not have disclosures. When a home is sold as is or there are no disclosures it can often be critical to get a home inspection. It is very important that you are able to make an informed decision about such an expensive and important purchase.    

LOW- KEY  RELAXED  AND THOROUGH                     

Buying a new home is probably the biggest investment you'll ever make. And its a decision that will affect you for years to come. The process can be extremely stressful and confusing and you don't need any more stress or strain worrying about your inspector. And of course, there is always considerable risk involved when making  a home purchase . A home inspection will significantly reduce your risk and help make the entire home buying process easier and less stressful. I really enjoy helping my clients in this process. Customer service is my highest priority.

FOR YOUR EDUCATION AND ENLIGHTENMENT

I strongly encourage all of my clients to accompany me during the home inspection. You should feel free to ask me any questions you may have during the home inspection process. I will point out problems with the home and explain them to you. I will also show you the good points of the home as well. Plus, I will explain what routine home maintenance is needed to keep the home in top condition. This will help you  get the most benefit from the home inspection and gain the most understanding of the systems that make up your home, and how to maintain it.

I WORK FOR THE CLIENT AND EVERYTHING IS COFIDENTIAL

As a member of Independent Home Inspectors of North America SGA Inspection & Construction Services believes that home inspectors must be totally commited to the best interest of their client and that is my sole focus when I arrive for your home inspection.
