MEET your inspector
Jared Ball, Washington and Oregon Certified Home Inspector
I am a husband and father of two. I’ve been living in the beautiful and lush Pacific Northwest for over 20 years, enjoying the city of Vancouver, Washington. I am fortunate to say that this location has just about everything you need. Here, we are close to many rivers, mountains, and a beautiful coast line. I enjoy exploring this local wonderland, hiking, fishing, and surfing with the family.
I have had a successful career in carpentry, constructing homes and buildings to meet the codes and standards of this area and have found construction to be my passion.
The homes and buildings in the Pacific Northwest face their own unique challenges. We live in an area where there is a lot of water. Houses and buildings need to be constructed to resist water intrusion. It takes a trained eye like mine to know what to look for when inspecting a house.
Going through the home buying process myself, I know how stressful and exciting it can be during the largest investment of your life. My aim is to do the hard work for you, using my passion and expertise to take the stress out of purchasing, and making sure your home is safe and functional for you and your family.
