You‘re not just buying a home inspection – you’re buying over a decade of experience
Certified Master Inspector
First of all, my name is Todd Hoffmeyer, notably a Certified Master Inspector at Top Choice Home Inspections. I am a qualified, dedicated, knowledgeable home inspector. Also, to point out, I am focused on my trade – and focused on you.
Value of The Home Inspection
Firstly, I have always believed that the home inspection is one of the most important aspects of a home purchase. In addition, probably THE most important. Furthermore, a home purchase will affect you and your family for many years, for better or worse. Thus, I keep that in the forefront of my mind when performing a home inspection.
My Qualifications
In other words, it is also the reason that I work hard to be the most qualified home inspector there is. I am HSTI Certified and notably, I am a full member in good standing and continuing education of InterNACHI. In addition, I also carry many other trade certifications. See below for just some of my many home inspector qualifications.
The Value of MY Home Inspection
My home inspections include a free home maintenance book and much more, including the “We’ll buy your home Guarantee” backed by InterNACHI.
