Please help us in showing your support for Walk-through Consultations. The North Carolina Licensure Board is voting in July on allowing or preventing Home Inspectors from performing Walk-Through Consultations. Preventing home inspectors from performing this type of protection would be a disservice to our clients and the public, opening the doors to unlicensed contractors with less education and experience to fill this need a.

What is a walk-Through Consultation? A Walk-through Consultation is a visual, verbal consultation where we will consult with you and answer questions about the home. We will look for any apparent and identifiable deficiencies in a house during your 30-minute pre-offer showing.

Walk-Through Consultation should not be confused with a home inspection or a substitute for one

We will visually look at your concerns and provide information about the house you otherwise may not be aware of. Educating buyers to help you make a decision before submitting an offer and potentially losing thousands or more in diligence. A walk-Consultation helps you make the right decision for your family.
