Butch Brown, Certified Home Inspector

Your home is a huge investment.Protect it with a thorough home inspection.

Southern Home Services was created to provide home buyers and sellers with the information they need to protect their interests during a real estate transaction. Without a thorough home inspection performed by a qualified professional, neither the buyer nor the seller can really know what defects may exist in a home.

We evaluate all the major elements of the home, including heating, cooling, structural, electrical, plumbing, and more, allowing all parties to make informed decisions.

There are several reasons why a home inspection is a smart investment. Whether you are a first time home buyer, or have bought and sold many homes, it is wise to obtain a professional home inspection to find out what type of systems and components exist in the home and determine the condition of each. A home inspection also helps you understand how these systems and the structural components function.
