Buying or selling a home? We give buyers, sellers and agents a clear report on the foundation, with photos, notes and likely next steps.
A foundation can hide big costs behind fresh paint. A general home inspection looks at everything but has limited time for each part. A cracked wall, a damp crawl space or a sloped floor may be noted with a single line that says to have it looked at by a specialist. For buyers, this is the moment to get answers. For sellers, it is the moment to find out what a buyer is likely to ask.
We provide a focused foundation inspection with a clear report. For buyers, it shows what is sound, what needs repair and what the likely repairs involve. For sellers, it lets you fix issues before listing or share the report and keep buyers at ease. For agents, it keeps the deal moving with an easy-to-read document and a quick turnaround. We work around closing schedules and answer questions from every side. Because a sale has a calendar, we keep our reports short, clear and photo-rich, with the urgent items at the top. Agents appreciate a document that can be read in minutes, and buyers appreciate honest answers that do not exaggerate or hide anything.
Know the condition before you buy and plan for repairs or use the report to negotiate.
A clear report removes a question from the sale, and repairs can be done on your schedule.
A photo-rich, plain-language report helps clients decide and keeps the transaction on track.
We aim to fit inspections into inspection and option periods and deliver the report quickly.
