A team you can depend on.
Your real estate transactions are some of the most financially important events you’ll experience in your life. It’s vital to have a team who has your back! Being part of the real estate world, I regularly encounter other professionals, contractors, inspectors, etc. I pay close attention to how these people interact with me, my clients, and the world at large. If their name is on this evolving list of resources, it means I either have or would trust them with my own personal transactions and projects.

Justin Kangas
HOME INSPECTOR
I am a curious person and like puzzles. That is part of why I am a full time home inspector. I grew up in the trades eventually overseeing the construction of homes, from the first pour of concrete to the handing over of the keys to the homeowner. Now I enjoy putting my experience and curiosity to work inspecting homes to help others better understand the house they are looking to make into a home.
The best part of being a home inspector is helping others. I enjoy helping clients understand the homes’ systems and how they are dependent on one another. Spending time with the client answering questions before, during or well after the inspection is rewarding.
I walk through the inspection, what was found during the inspection, and provide a state-of-the-art report that is easy to read. I make myself available to answer questions, so clients can make decision with confidence.
In the end it is all about the people and the place they will call home.
