Home Inspection Carolina Charlotte NC--The Agent's Choice Inspectors
Local business is so important to my business as it seems that the 'big guys' are sometimes a bit 'gimicky' and the turnover is higher than the small businesses that I've been associated with in the past. I'd like to salute my favorite home inspection firm here in Charlotte NC--Home Inspection Carolina. Preston and Meg Sandlin started this company from their home 11 years ago and have expanded to 7 inspectors and 3 office personnel. They ARE the preferred inspectors in Charlotte but, that doesn't stop them from giving A+, individualized service.

Moving to Charlotte NC? Economics are a major advantage that Charlotte has over other cities--it's just a great place to live, work and play!
C harlotte was perceived, many years ago as a textile center and now, a banking center.

Charlotte boasts a vibrant, balanced economy that encompasses many sectors, as well as companies that range in size from microbusiness to multinational. Charlotte's economy is easily one of the healthiest and strongest in the nation. Diverse business interests … (13 comments)

To Preview or Not To Preview! To Preview or NOT to Preview? Have you ever been on a short-notice search (less than 16 hours!) of a mother-in-law (MIL) suite for your clients? I took a wonderful couple shopping for homes in my area, looking for brick ranch homes with either separate living quarters (kitchen included) or a full, finished basement (also with a kitchen) to be used as a mother-in-law suite. The problem here in Charlotte is that there are not alot of high-end ranch style homes available that were built after the 1980's. This is primarily due to the subdivision … (62 comments)
