Buying an Investment Property In Greater Cleveland / Akron Area?

Let Tri-County Inspections Be The Boots On The Ground Before Making That Bid

A typical home inspection is a two to four hour, comprehensive visual inspection - equipped with tools to detect moisture, water temperature, electric current and more. These intense inspections culminate in a thorough report with documented analysis of the condition of all the home's components - as detailed as faucets and door stops, to outlets and windows.  Typical reports are 100+ pages which include over 175+ high quality pictures and video.  Although these home inspection reports give home buyers the confidence about the home they are buying - an investor or flipper is usually gutting a home, planning on minor or major renovations and replacing or updating several components in the house or building.

Lite Inspections Give Investors Confidence 

At Tri-County Inspections we hear from a lot of investors that are looking to make bids on houses that are repossessed, bank-owned or currently rented. The condition of the property may be already run-down or neglected and the investor wants to know, without seeing the home, how much money it would take to turn a certain profit. With our Lite Inspection we provide an abbreviated inspection at a lower cost to give investors the confidence they need to move forward - or the insight they need to move on.  We understand it may take several inspections to find the right property so we are happy to offer a reduced price inspections that still gives investors the confidence they need to make an informed decision.
