About Us:

Let me introduce you to Lone Star Inspections 
|
 |
The process of buying or selling a new home is difficult enough without having to worry that you might discover major damage a few months down the road (buying) or that your asking price will be reduced due to unforeseen damage discovered at closing (selling). Home inspectors have become an increasingly important part of a growing number of real estate transactions. In fact, over 80-percent of all buyer/seller transactions involve a home inspector. The reason for this is simply that a home inspector is a buyer's or seller's first line of defense when trying to protect their fiscal and physical health. A well-trained home inspector can help you prevent making a costly real estate mistake, or a home inspector can simply validate that the property's checked systems and structure are in good condition. Whatever the diagnosis, an experienced home inspector is your most important alli to assure that you are, in fact, getting what you pay for if you are buying, and will get what you ask if selling. LONE STAR HOME INSPECTIONS offers an extensive portfolio of inspection services designed to arm you with the information you need to make an informed decision. I work side-by-side with my clients to provide honest, thorough and competitively-priced inspections that are backed by my quality assurance guarantee. Call me today, and find out what makes LONE STAR HOME INSPECTIONS one of the most trusted names for home inspections in the greater EL Paso area (including Las Cruces, Ruidoso and Alamogordo, New Mexico).

WHAT REALLY MATTERS
What Really Matters
Buying a home? The process can be stressful. A home inspection is supposed to give you peace of mind, but often has the opposite effect. You will be asked to absorb a lot of information in a short time. This often includes a written report, checklist, photographs, environmental reports and what the inspector himself says during the inspection. All this combined with the seller's disclosure and what you notice yourself makes the experience even more overwhelming. What should you do?
Relax. Most of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about. However, the issues that really matter will fall into four categories:
- Major defects. An example of this would be a structural failure.
- Things that lead to major defects. A small roof-flashing leak, for example.
- Things that may hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy or insure the home.
- Safety hazards, such as an exposed, live buss bar at the electric panel.
Anything in these categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property (especially in categories 2 and 4).
Most sellers are honest and are often surprised to learn of defects uncovered during an inspection. Realize that sellers are under no obligation to repair everything mentioned in the report. No home is perfect. Keep things in perspective. Do not kill your deal over things that do not matter. It is inappropriate to demand that a seller address deferred maintenance, conditions already listed on the seller's disclosure or nit-picky items.
MY PROMISE TO YOU
My Promise to You
Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods and yes, different pricing. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort. This I promise you.
