Completion before the walkthrough
Confirm that equipment is installed and ready to operate. Unfinished work and inaccessible areas can limit the inspection and may need a separate return visit.

HOME INSPECTIONS
IN LAKEWOOD RANCH.
New home excitement. An independent second look.
Buying in Lakewood Ranch? Sunday travels from Sarasota to help you evaluate a completed new home or a resale before you commit. Bring your builder questions, closing date, and any items you noticed during a walkthrough. We turn visible findings into a conversation you can follow.
Plan around your builder.
Lakewood Ranch includes villages offering single-family homes, villas, townhomes, and condominiums. Waterside, Star Farms, and other villages each have their own access and builder arrangements. Share the community, property type, completion date, and closing deadline so the inspection can be scheduled at a useful point in your purchase.
A final inspection works best when the home is substantially complete, utilities are on, and the builder has approved access. Already moved in? An 11-month inspection can document visible concerns before your own warranty deadline. Doug provides a same-day report you can use in the conversation with your builder.
The inspection is visual and non-invasive. The agreed scope and safe access determine what can be evaluated.

Cooling, insulation, and drainage
The evaluation includes accessible cooling equipment, attic insulation, roof components, and visible drainage conditions. New construction still benefits from an independent look at completed work.
Your warranty calendar
Use the dates and notice requirements in your builder’s warranty. Arrange the inspection with enough time to review the report and submit your questions before that deadline.
