A professional home inspection is an impartial third-party investigation of the systems and components of a home and property. Whether you are buying, building, selling, or remodeling a home, an inspection just makes good sense! Island Homes of the Keys, Inc. provides buyers, sellers, property owners, and agents with information essential to evaluating a property's condition.

What to Expect
Island Homes of the Keys, Inc., encourages our clients to accompany the inspector through the inspection process to receive a complete consultation and valuable orientation to the property and its systems. We use non-invasive techniques to find past or present problem areas.  We go above and beyond all industry standards and the requirements of the most accepted organizations in the United States. Your understanding of the inspection findings is critical to our goal of providing the best client service available.

Our Services
Home inspections can help you buy or sell your home with confidence. We''ll provide invaluable help in turning you into a knowledgeable consumer. Homeowners can identify problems in the making and take preventive measures to avoid costly repairs. Sellers can understand conditions the buyer’s inspector may point out and put the property in better selling condition by making repairs. Our inspection services include:

Buyers Inspection

In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well informed about the strengths and weaknesses of a property is to have us give you a professional home inspection. We are trained to identify problem areas both small and large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners and to identify which require immediate attention.


Sellers Inspection

Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a realtor, it’s always a prudent idea to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses: we help you answer how serious the problems are and which must be immediately addressed and which can wait. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation.


Warranty Inspection


Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction. Generally during this period of time the buyer develops a "punch list" of corrections for the contractor to repair under the warranty coverage. Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. It is prudent to obtain our home inspectors list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You will be reassured knowing that potential problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a great deal down the road.

Commercial Inspection

Island Homes of the Keys, Inc. provides commercial inspections such as apartment complexes, retail, office, and warehousing. We evaluate buildings with the bottom-line in mind, providing upfront costs and future projections. We are available before and after the inspection to answer any questions you might have.

You won't find another inspection company as dedicated and responsive to your investment decision-making needs as Island Homes of the Keys, Inc.
