Avoid Costly Surprises—Top Lessons From 100 Home Inspections

Before a home ever goes live on the market, there are hidden risks quietly waiting behind the walls, under the foundation, or in systems that haven’t been serviced in years. Issues like:

  • Cosmetic upgrades masking underlying defects

  • Foundation shifts caused by DFW’s clay soil

  • Aging systems (HVAC, plumbing, roof) that raise red flags instantly

  • Drainage and water-management failures that lead to mold or wood rot

  • Minor issues that feel “big” to buyers once an inspector lists them out

These aren’t just inconveniences—they’re the very things that cause deals to fall apart, buyers to panic, and sellers to lose leverage in negotiations.
