Buying a house is a big deal.

I just walk people through the house and tell them what I’d tell my own kid.

I’ll tell you what matters,
what doesn’t, and what I’d do.

"I'd take care of this."

There are safety issues that need to be addressed by a professional

Examples: Cracks in your foundation, faulty fireplaces, roof leaking

"Just keep an eye on it."

These issues need attention but may not  impact your day to day.

Examples: Light switches not operating, missing boards on a fence

"I wouldn't worry about this."

Worth addressing soon to avoid bigger issues.

Examples: Screens need repairs, doors are not latching, doorbell not working

How I can help you

Home Inspections

Buying a house is a big decision…and you deserve to feel good about it.

Whether you are buying a single family home, or a multi unit building, I’ll walk through the home with you and take a close look at everything—from the roof and foundation to the electrical, plumbing, and major systems.

Then I’ll explain what matters, what doesn’t, and what I’d keep an eye on…so you can move forward with confidence.

Drone Inspections

For hard-to-see areas like roofs and chimneys, I use drone footage to take a closer look. It helps catch things you might otherwise miss without adding risk or guesswork.

I’m FAA Part 107 certified, so everything is done safely and the right way.

Aerial Real Estate Photos

Clean, simple aerial photos to give a better view of the property and surrounding area. Great for listings that need a little more context—nothing flashy, just useful.

About me

You deserve a home inspector you can trust.

I’ve seen a lot over the years.  Not many home inspectors have run an organic farm in Wisconsin, flown planes in Alaska, earned an MBA in Chicago all while raising a family.

From building and fixing farm equipment to maintaining real estate investments, I learned to how to look closely, ask the right questions, and tell people the truth.

Now, as a home inspector, I bring that same mindset into every house I walk through.

I’ll explain things clearly, without the jargon, and I'll help you understand what actually matters.

If this were my own kid buying the house, I’d want someone to walk them through it the same way.
