Why Apple Valley buyers and sellers choose us
You're spending a quarter-million to a million dollars on a Dakota County home. The inspector you pick decides whether you find what's wrong with it before closing — or after. Here's what makes us different from the dozens of other Apple Valley inspectors:
InterNACHI Master Certified — the highest tier
Most Apple Valley home inspectors carry the entry-level InterNACHI certification. Master Certified is a separate, higher tier — fewer than 5% of inspectors hold it nationally. It requires hundreds of completed inspections, advanced continuing education, and adherence to a stricter standard of practice.
3,000+ Dakota County inspections
We've been inspecting homes in Apple Valley, Burnsville, Lakeville, Rosemount, Eagan, Farmington, Prior Lake, and Savage for 12 years. We know what 1980s Cobblestone Lake split-levels do. We know what 2010s Spirit of Brandtjen Farm new builds get wrong. We know which Burnsville builds have aluminum wiring and which Eagan walkouts settle. That kind of pattern recognition only comes from local volume.
24-hour digital report — guaranteed
Your inspection contingency is 5–10 days. Wasting 3 of them waiting for a report kills your negotiating window. Every report we deliver is in your inbox within 24 hours — most arrive the same evening. Photos, prioritized findings, and language your real estate agent can use to negotiate.
You're invited — and encouraged — to attend
We don't show up, do the inspection alone, and email a PDF. We invite you to walk the home with us. Ask anything. See the issues in person. The inspection is your education — make us earn it.
No mileage charges anywhere in Dakota County
Same pricing whether your inspection is in Apple Valley, Burnsville, Lakeville, Rosemount, Eagan, Farmington, Prior Lake, or Savage. No surprise fees. The estimator price is the final price.
