Deals with inspection issues

Why Investors Need Specialized Inspections

Investment properties are income assets, not just homes.

Small maintenance issues can become major costs that eat into ROI if left unchecked.


Our inspections identify:

  • Deferred maintenance or unreported tenant damage

  • Foundation or structural movement

  • Roof wear, leaks, or drainage issues

  • HVAC inefficiencies and missing filters

  • Electrical and plumbing safety risks

  • Water intrusion, mold, or ventilation problems

Whether you’re acquiring, managing, or selling, Sentinel ensures every investment decision is based on facts, not assumptions.

Comprehensive Investment Property Inspection Services

Pre-Purchase Inspections for Investors

Before acquisition, we assess condition, code compliance, and repair needs so you can budget accurately and negotiate confidently.


Annual Maintenance & Portfolio Inspections

For existing holdings, our scheduled inspections track condition trends, helping prevent costly emergencies and preserve asset value.

 Local Expertise That Makes a Difference

Sentinel’s inspectors know the DFW market inside and out — from the slab foundations of Fort Worth to the attic ventilation systems in Frisco. Our deep local knowledge helps identify region-specific issues like:

  • Foundation shifting due to expansive clay soils

  • Attic heat buildup and roof deterioration

  • Drainage and grading problems from heavy storms

  • Aging HVAC systems common in older Dallas suburbs

We tailor every inspection to the area’s unique housing styles, from historic properties in Arlington Heights to new builds in Prosper.
