Dana knows homes inside and out, including every style house and every single component whether installing, repairing or replacing that component. Dana is a patient and friendly home inspector. He will take the time to educate customers by explaining the inner workings of homes to his customers in the midst of the real estate purchase. “It’s easy to get caught in the trap of basing the home purchase on emotion instead of logic,” Dana says. A home inspection by a certified master professional gives the buyer an unbiased, highly professional view of the condition of the home, its components and systems. That is the key to an understanding of what will most likely be the largest purchase they will ever make and, ultimately, to peace of mind in moving forward with the real estate transaction.
