New Home Phase Inspections are an invaluable service for anyone who is looking to have a reliable and non-biased professional opinion regarding the quality and installation practices being utilized in their new home during the building process.

With a HUD 203(k) Renovation Loan, you change how you view the homes from what they are, TO WHAT THEY WILL BE!
Also, all units in which the Virginia Homeless Solutions Program (VHSP) project participants reside are subject to Lead-Based Paint Requirements and require a certified professional do a visual assessment of the property prior to funding. We offer manufactured home certifications to clients in the Northern & Central Virginia, & the Shenandoah Valley to include homeowners, mortgage lenders, loan officers, real estate agents and insurance agents.

Tom Michell was Excellent on our home inspection for a single-family home we are buying. He explained everything, educated me in different aspects of the inspection, and was detailed oriented. The report was received later that day with detailed explanations and pictures. I would highly recommend this company.
