Home Inspections: The Knowledge You Need
Buying a house is a huge investment. We help you make smart decisions.
Our Home Inspection Helps You Make Informed Decisions
It’s no secret that buying a house can be a nerve-racking experience. That’s why you need a trusted advisor to give you as much information as possible to make sure you’re investing wisely.
Getting a home inspection prior to investing in a house is just a smart decision. Let’s face it, we’re talking about spending a lot of money, so you want to make sure that you’re buying a sturdy, reliable house rather than a potential money pit.
Call Diamond Home Inspections to schedule your inspection today. You’ll be glad you did.
What A Home Inspection Does
Believe it or not, but many people have a misconception that the purpose of getting a home inspection is to try and talk you out of buying a house. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
The truth is that it’s not a home inspector’s job to talk you into or out of purchasing the house you’re considering. Our job is to simply give you the information you need to make a well-informed decision. That’s really all.
No house is perfect. They all have at least a few issues. Getting an inspection simply identifies what those issues are and gives the prospective home buyer insight into how much he or she will have to invest in the future in addition to the initial cost of the home. This information is also helpful.

· Excellent customer service
· Always on time
· Flexible scheduling
· 24-hour turnaround on our home inspection report
· Inspection reports that are easy to read and understand.
We make it a point to get you the information you need when you need it.
