How a commercial inspection works with Home Spectors

  1. Pre-inspection scoping call (free, 15–30 min). We ask property address, square footage, year built, use type, occupancy status, tenant-coordination needs, lender requirements, and closing timeline.
  2. Written quote and scheduling. Fixed-price per property once scope is confirmed. On-site time varies by sqft, age, and unit count.
  3. Tenant and access coordination. For occupied properties we coordinate with your leasing agent, property manager, or the seller’s rep to minimize tenant disruption.
  4. On-site inspection. Buyer welcome on-site — many bring their contractor, partner, or lender’s rep. We stay until every accessible system is documented.
  5. Report delivery. Written report with photos, prioritized findings, and system-by-system summary. Same platform our residential clients receive — the format Triad lenders and buyer’s agents already read fluently.
  6. Post-report walkthrough call. Included. Buyer + agent + lender + partner on a single call is standard practice. Follow-up questions welcome at (336) 382-7269 for as long as you own the building.

What you receive

  • Written commercial inspection report — delivered digitally (PDF and browser view), with photos embedded inline for every material finding, ordered by priority so lenders and partners can read the executive summary first.
  • System-by-system structure — Roof → Structure → Envelope → Plumbing → Electrical → HVAC → Interior → Site → Ancillary. Same format as our residential reports, which Triad lenders and buyer’s agents are already fluent in.
  • Executive summary written for lender and capital-partner audiences — no inspector jargon in the summary; detail lives in the body.
  • Cost-framing on major systems — age, condition, likely replacement horizon in plain language so you can build a capital-planning line. We do not quote repair prices (contractor role) but give you enough to price a bid.
  • A phone number that keeps working — call (336) 382-7269 with follow-up questions after close. Same number, same team.

What our report is not: a PCR to ASTM E2018, a certified engineering opinion, an as-built drawing set, or a code-cite matrix. Buyers who need those engage a specialist alongside us.

Add-on inspections and testing

For commercial buyers we can add the following to the same visit or coordinate separate scheduling. Pricing is quoted per property.

Termite / WDIR

Wood Destroying Insect Report — required by many commercial lenders.

Radon Testing

48-hour continuous-monitor deployment — relevant for buildings with occupied lower-level space.

Mold Sampling

Surface or air sampling with results returned from an accredited lab.

Sewer Scope

Visual inspection of the building lateral to the main.

Water Quality

For buildings on well or with tenant complaints.

What we don't provide in-house (and will refer)

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), asbestos identification with lab sampling, lead-paint XRF survey, hazardous-materials inventory, and licensed-engineer structural or MEP opinions. If your due-diligence checklist includes these, we’ll name a Triad specialist to coordinate with.

Who inspects your property

Home Spectors was founded in 2007. Family-owned Greensboro firm; 35,000+ inspections completed since our first year. Our founder, Jason Michael, holds the Certified Master Inspector (CMI) credential — the highest professional designation in the home-inspection industry.

North Carolina licensing context

North Carolina licenses inspectors of one-to-four-unit residential dwellings through the NC Home Inspector Licensure Board (NCHILB). NCHILB does not issue a separate commercial-inspection license — no state agency in NC does. Commercial inspections in NC are performed by licensed home inspectors, engineers, and specialty consultants.

What that means for you:

  • The inspector brings NCHILB residential licensure PLUS the standards developed across 35,000+ inspections.
  • Where an engineer’s stamp is required (structural certification, MEP sign-off, PCA to ASTM E2018), we coordinate with a Triad engineering firm — and we tell you before the inspection, not after.
  • Our commercial inspection uses the residential systems-and-components framework expanded for commercial complexity (larger roofs, multi-tenant electrical, rooftop mechanicals, ADA-observable pathways).

Communication is our verified differentiator

Per our 2026-08-10 Google Business Profile audit, the top two auto-tagged themes across our reviews are clear explanations (61 reviews) and explanation of issues (49 reviews). Commercial buyers reading a report to make a capital-deployment decision benefit disproportionately from an inspector who explains findings in plain language.

Common commercial-buyer questions

More systems, larger scope, more stakeholders (buyer, agent, lender, capital partners). Same visual, systems-by-systems, prioritized-findings framework — but the report is written to inform capital decisions, not just closing-table repair negotiation.
No. A PCA to ASTM E2018 is a specialist engineering-firm engagement delivered as a signed Property Condition Report (PCR). If your lender requires a PCR, we’ll tell you on the scoping call and refer to a Triad PCA firm.
Not typically. We focus on small commercial, multi-family, mixed-use, and investment properties. Call us — we’ll be honest about fit and refer if we aren’t right.
Yes. Buyer + agent + lender + partner on a single call is standard practice for us.
No. Phase I ESA is a specialist environmental firm’s engagement. We can refer.
Licensed by the NC Home Inspector Licensure Board. Founder holds the Certified Master Inspector (CMI) credential. NC does not issue a separate commercial-inspection license — no state does — so commercial inspections in NC are performed by licensed home inspectors, engineers, and specialty consultants.
Per-property, based on sqft, age, unit count, and add-on services. Call (336) 382-7269 or use the quote form for a fixed-price quote. We do not publish a starting-price table — commercial properties vary enough that a published number is more likely to mislead than help.
Yes when access requires it. We work with your leasing agent, property manager, or the seller’s rep on tenant notice, access windows, and lock coordination. Multi-tenant coordination is discussed on the scoping call.
Yes when the calendar permits. Rush availability varies week to week — mention your closing date on the scoping call and we will tell you honestly what we can support.
