Yes. I understand that real estate timelines can be tight, so I offer flexible scheduling—including evenings, weekends, and same-day appointments when available. If you're under contract and need a fast turnaround, I prioritize rush inspections and deliver the full report within 24 hours. Just call or message, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your timeline.

A home inspection is a visual evaluation of a property’s accessible systems and components—performed by a licensed professional to identify defects, safety concerns, and construction issues.

In Texas, inspections follow the TREC Standards of Practice, ensuring consistency and reliability. For newly built homes, inspections help verify that the builder’s work meets code, functions properly, and is free of hidden problems before closing or warranty expiration.

Absolutely. I encourage clients to participate in the inspection process. This is a great time to become more familiar with your potential new home, ask me questions, and, importantly, it allows me to explain my findings in detail and put things into perspective.

Most inspections take about 2.5 to 4 hours, possibly longer depending on the size and condition.

Even brand-new homes can have construction defects, incomplete work, or safety issues that aren’t visible to the untrained eye. Builders work fast, subcontractors rotate, and quality control can vary—especially in high-growth areas like Central Texas.

A professional inspection ensures your home meets code, functions properly, and is free of hidden problems before closing or warranty expiration. It’s your chance to catch issues early, document them clearly, and hold the builder accountable while you still have leverage.

The most common issues I find are differences in building standards. Building standard constantly evolve over time to make homes safer and more efficient, so what was acceptable 20 years ago may no longer meet today’s standards. The older the home, the more differences in standards I tend to uncover.

Whether the home is newly constructed or one that is decades old, I conduct a thorough inspection and deliver a comprehensive, easy-to-understand report detailing my findings—so you can make an informed decision with confidence.

Yes. My inspection report is designed to be clear, detailed, and actionable—making it a strong tool for negotiations. Whether you're requesting repairs, credits, or price adjustments, the report provides documented evidence of issues that may affect safety, function, or long-term value.

Buyers often use it to prioritize what matters most, and agents appreciate the clarity when presenting findings to the seller. I focus on facts, not fear—so you can negotiate with confidence and credibility.
