What we look for locally
Snohomish County homes, and what makes them different.
The county mixes older city neighborhoods, fast-growing suburbs, river valleys, shoreline bluffs, and forested foothills. We adjust where we look hardest for each.
Older homes with a long history
Everett and the city of Snohomish have many homes that are decades old, including older craftsman-style houses. They often combine original construction with additions, remodels, and updated systems made at different times.
We look at: older wiring and panels, plumbing materials, foundation and framing, past repairs, and how additions were tied in.
Newer subdivisions are not problem-free
Much of the county's housing was built during decades of rapid growth. Newer homes are not exempt from problems, which commonly include grading and drainage that settle over time, flashing and sealing details, and attic ventilation.
We look at: exterior drainage, siding and window flashing, attic and roof ventilation, fixtures, and the condition of systems that are still young.
Rain, snow, trees, and acreage
Monroe, Sultan, Gold Bar, and the communities along Highway 2 see heavy rain, some snow, and trees close to roofs, and parts of the river valleys have a history of flooding. Many rural properties use private wells and septic systems, which are specialized and usually evaluated separately by licensed specialists.
We look at: roof condition and moss, gutters, ventilation, decks, wood-burning equipment, crawl space moisture, and drainage.
Hillsides, bluffs, and waterfront
Homes along the Sound and on steep lots deal with slope and drainage concerns, along with salt air and wind-driven rain near the shore. Assessing the stability of a slope itself is a job for a geotechnical specialist.
We look at: retaining walls, visible cracking or movement, drainage near the foundation, siding and trim, and deck connections.

Common questions
Snohomish County inspection FAQ.
Yes. We serve the whole county, including Everett, Marysville, Lake Stevens, Snohomish, Monroe, and the Highway 2 corridor. If your property is remote or you are not sure it is in range, call us and we will confirm and arrange scheduling.
Yes. Newer homes can still have issues with drainage, flashing, ventilation, and installation details, and a newly built home may not have had a thorough independent review. An inspection gives you a clear record of the home's condition before you close.
No. Flood zone status comes from mapping that your agent, lender, or the county can confirm, and slope stability is a question for a geotechnical specialist. What we can do is note signs of past water, drainage problems, retaining walls, and visible movement or cracking at the property.
A standard home inspection covers the visible plumbing and the home's systems. Wells and septic systems are specialized and are usually evaluated separately by licensed specialists. If you are buying a rural property, ask your agent about scheduling those evaluations.
