As a young adult starting at age fifteen, I worked along side carpenters, electricians, flooring experts and cabinet makers. In working with my father, uncles and cousins, we completed a 3,500 square foot home from the ground up. This was the start of understanding all systems that make up a house, including what truly makes it a home... the family that resides there. ​ In valuing and appreciated what it means to be a family, it is my passion making my clients the #1 priority. As a family man, Home Inspector, and a 203KFHA/HUD Rehab Consultant, it is very important to me that my clients know and understand all systems (and any deficiencies) in the home they are about to purchase or sell. As a 203K Rehab Consultant, my job is to ensure all general contractors perform their renovation job in a timely manner, meet local code requirements, and never take advantage of my clients. My focus is to protect my clients safety and major investment. ​ I also volunteer as a member of the Board of Directors for the non profit organization Greater Chicagoland Fellowship. At GCF we provide affordable housing for low to moderate income individuals, families, and help revitalization efforts on the communities we serve. Superior quality, comprehensive and thorough inspections performed by a professionally trained home inspector. We treat every inspection with pride and integrity. Our inspection will be conducted in accordance with the Illinois standards of home inspection.

FAQs for home inspection projects in Chicago, IL

Most mobile home inspections require two to three hours to complete properly. The timeline varies based on your home's size, age, and overall condition. Inspectors need sufficient time to examine all major systems, document their findings, and compile their observations. 

If the inspector discovers concerning issues that warrant deeper investigation, the process may take longer. For the most thorough assessment, try to schedule your inspection during daylight hours when visibility is optimal.

Pay close attention to water damage indicators like ceiling stains, warped flooring, or musty odors. Structural concerns, including uneven floors, sagging rooflines, or doors that won't close properly, suggest potential foundation issues. Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards. 

Impromptu modifications or repairs performed without proper permits often signal deeper problems. Windows that don't seal properly may indicate structural shifting or water infiltration.

Yes, professional inspectors evaluate the foundation components and anchoring mechanisms during a thorough assessment. They examine support piers, blocks, and tie-downs for proper installation and condition. The inspection includes checking for appropriate ground clearance and adequate ventilation beneath the home. 

Proper anchoring is essential for stability during adverse weather conditions. Foundation issues can affect everything from door alignment to plumbing function, making this a critical part of any comprehensive inspection.

Industry professionals recommend scheduling maintenance inspections every two to three years for manufactured homes. Homes in regions with extreme weather conditions may benefit from more frequent evaluations. Consider arranging an inspection after significant storms or if you notice any unusual changes in your home's condition. 

Regular assessments help identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Maintaining documentation of these inspections also provides valuable records for insurance purposes or future sale considerations.

Search for inspectors with certifications from recognized professional organizations in your state. Specialized training or experience with manufactured housing is particularly valuable for these unique structures. Ask potential inspectors about their familiarity with HUD standards for manufactured homes. Professional membership in industry associations often indicates commitment to ongoing education and ethical standards. Request sample reports from prospective inspectors to evaluate their thoroughness and clarity of communication.

Many insurance providers consider inspection results when determining policy rates and coverage terms. A positive report demonstrating well-maintained systems and the absence of hazards may qualify you for better rates. Addressing issues identified during inspection demonstrates proactive maintenance that insurers often reward. Some companies offer specific discounts for homes that meet certain safety and structural standards. 

Contact your insurance provider before scheduling an inspection to understand exactly what documentation they require for potential premium reductions.
