Pre-Purchase Home Inspections

Best for: Homebuyers who want a full property evaluation before closing
Includes: Structure, roof, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, foundation, appliances, attic, exterior, windows, and more



Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make. A pre-purchase inspection provides you with a detailed report on the home’s current condition, helping you avoid unexpected repairs or safety issues. Eagle One examines every accessible area of the home — inside and out — and delivers an easy-to-read report within 24 hours. This service is ideal for first-time buyers, seasoned homeowners, and anyone purchasing a resale property.

Investor Property Inspections

Best for: Landlords, property managers, and real estate investors
Includes: Complete interior and exterior inspection, with optional recurring evaluations for rental properties


Investors need accurate, unbiased information to protect assets and maximize returns. Our investor inspections evaluate key systems and structural integrity so you can make informed decisions about maintenance, upgrades, and acquisition strategy. Whether you're assessing a new rental property or checking in on long-term wear and tear, we deliver clear findings that help guide your business.

Pre-Warranty Expiration Inspections

Best for: Homeowners with a new build nearing the end of its 1-year builder warranty
Includes: Full-system inspection with a focus on common post-construction issues



Before your builder’s one-year warranty expires, have a certified inspection completed. We check for defects or incomplete work in structural systems, roofing, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing — all of which could be fixed at the builder’s expense if caught in time. This proactive inspection could save you hundreds or thousands in post-warranty repairs.

Seller Certified Home Program

Best for: Homeowners listing their property for sale
Includes: Full inspection, repair recommendations, and optional report to share with buyers



Stand out from the competition and reduce last-minute surprises with a pre-listing inspection. By having your home inspected before it hits the market, you can identify and fix problems early, price more accurately, and avoid delays during escrow. A certified inspection report also helps build trust with potential buyers — making it easier to close faster and with fewer negotiations.
