We Do Inspections You Can Count On
How Homebuyers Stay One Step Ahead
If you’re thinking about buying a home, learning everything you can about the property beforehand is a formula for sustained success.

At Farnum Inspection Service, we offer an investigative home inspection that will provide you with a more well-rounded understanding of a property’s overall condition and specific maintenance needs—putting you ahead and bringing a successful investment well within your reach.

“I definitely recommend Perry to anyone who is buying home.”
“If you are thinking about home inspection, look no further, Perry is your guy. I was not sure about doing home inspection since I was getting a newly built home, but I am very glad I decided to do a home inspection. I was buying a home for the first time and Perry was very patient and he thoroughly explained everything. The report he provided was very well documented. I am very satisfied by service he provided. I definitely recommend Perry to anyone who is buying home.”
