What we look for

Common issues in Emerald Isle homes

Investment property wear

Rental homes take heavy use. We focus on HVAC performance, plumbing leaks, decks and stairs, and anything that may affect guest safety.

Decks, railings and stairs

Exterior wood structures deteriorate quickly at the beach. We check for rot, loose connections, corroded fasteners and unsafe railings.

Salt-air equipment

Condensers, electrical panels and exterior lighting corrode quickly. We note equipment showing advanced corrosion.
