Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: We have the knowledge and expertise required to identify problem areas in your home. We have been full time home inspectors in San Diego since 2003 and began by working with real estate investors who would use our inspection services to determine if they should or should not invest in a piece of real estate. I truly enjoy what I do. Especially working with first-time buyers in San Diego as many of them do not have the necessary skills to assess a building and report on defects. These are the customers who are most appreciative of my inspection services and they rely on us everyday to help them navigate their home purchase.

I recently hired Darin Redding, CPI from Housecall Property Inspections to inspect a condo I wanted to buy. What a find! He was professional, thorough and had all the latest tools and knowledge to check out every aspect of this condo. Along with a few minor deficiencies, he found problems with aluminum wiring and exposed wiring on a nearly new AC unit. He worked with the seller’s realtor to find the latest fix approved by the Consumer Protection and Safety Agency (Federal) and helped locate the right parts to fix the deficiencies. When the seller’s electrician was done with the repairs we had Darin come back to re-inspect. Darin kept us from buying a condo with serious fire and electrical shock potential and then made sure it was safe before we signed on the bottom line. I wouldn’t purchase another piece of property without having Darin inspecting it first.

We used Housecall Property Inspections for the last rental property we purchased because of the great reviews online and a friend of ours just used them with great results. Let me tell you, Darin was Awesome! He found things we would have never known about, had great suggestions and had a friendly attitude. Overall for the price you cannot go wrong with Housecall, great service and great value!

I hired Darin to inspect a home prior to renovations. He gave us a lot of helpful advice on our plans, provided information about any problems the home had, and was just a really nice guy. He also provided good references for some additional work we needed done that we couldn't do ourselves. Spent extra time answering our questions. Thanks Darin!

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    We attend annual conventions in our field to learn about current trends in the marketplace. We also take 30-40 hours of continuing education each year to stay at the top of our profession.

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    We did a home inspection recently in an exclusive community of Del Mar. The inspector noted a slight dip in the floor under the carpet and stressed the need for further examination as he felt their might be some foundation issues. The seller agreed to have the carpets removed and doing so revealed a multitude of cracks running through several rooms of the house. This discovery saved the home owner thousands of dollars and gave them a definitive advantage when it came time to negotiate their purchase.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Always ask your home inspector for his or her qualifications. The home inspector you chose should have extensive experience in the home inspection field, and should have many years of actual residential construction experience as well. Also, they should be certified and hold membership and be active in one of the major trade associations such as InterNACHI.
