Are you in search of a high quality home inspector in Sarasota County? We perform home inspections in most locations throughout the county. It is a great area! Unfortunately, many of the homes and condos are getting older and the systems might need updating and/or replacement. Roofing, plumbing, HVAC and electrical all have lifespans. Many of the homes in our area are old enough to have worn out systems. Our home inspection reports are issued the same day so you never have to wait!

Home development began in the 1950s and 1960s and continues until today. Sarasota County is quite large and offers a great variety of locations and home styles. You might be purchasing a home on a barrier island, a mid-century home in an older neighborhood or a new home in one of the communities being built along Honore Avenue and surrounding areas. South County areas like Venice, Osprey and Nokomis all offer dwellings of varying ages and construction quality.

No matter where you purchase, having a quality home inspection performed is nearly always in your best interest. Portions of Sarasota County have had plumbing issues which have required replacement of many of the plumbing lines. Also the cast-iron plumbing lines underneath the older dwellings are at the age where they may be requiring replacement. Our home inspection is a professional and careful evaluation of the homes systems. If possible, it is recommended that you attend the inspection to get the most out of the process.

A FEW RECENT NOTES & OBSERVATIONS

OUR RECENT REVIEWS

Michael Koester of Direct Inspectors, Sarasota, is one of the best inspectors we have worked with. We are a military family and this is our 18th house so we have had a bit of experience. Michael is excellent. He is committed to do a first class inspection for the buyer by being professional, thorough and knowledgeable. He sends an easy to read report and ensures every point is explored with the buyer before he leaves. This is the second time we have used his services and truly appreciated the experience both times.
Sincerely, Judy Smith and Hank Brinkman
