Who Qualifies

Military & First Responders.

The discount is open to the full military community and to first responders. If you served, you qualify. If you serve now, you qualify. Family members of active duty service members qualify too.

Enter your code when you book online, or just mention your service when you call. Either way works. No expiration. No blackout dates. Whether you're buying with a VA loan, getting a buyer's inspection in Portland, or getting a pre-listing inspection before you sell, the 10% applies to the inspection fee every time.

Russ Motyko, U.S. Army Reserve veteran and Certified Master Inspector® serving Oregon City and the Portland metro
Russ deployed to the Middle East in 2010-11 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Why This Discount Exists

From One Service Member to Another.

I've been in the Army Reserve for 17 years. In 2010, I deployed to the Middle East in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. I know what it's like to come home, try to plant roots, and make a major financial decision under pressure on a timeline that isn't always yours.

Military families move more than anyone. PCS orders, deployments, new duty stations. Every move is a new market, often without enough time to do it right. A bad home purchase can follow a family for years.

First responders show up in the worst moments of other people's lives. Cops, firefighters, paramedics, EMTs. They do hard work for pay that doesn't always reflect it. Same respect, same discount.

You served. You deserve a thorough Certified Master Inspector® inspection, and you deserve to pay a little less for it.

VA Loans & Home Inspections

The VA Appraisal Is Not a Home Inspection.

This is the most important thing military homebuyers need to know before closing. The VA appraisal required for your loan and a professional home inspection are two different things.

What the VA Appraisal Does NOT Do

Inspect the roof, foundation, or structural systems in detail
Test for radon, mold, or other environmental hazards
Check all mechanical systems in detail
Identify expensive repairs coming down the road
Document defects in any depth

What a Home Inspection DOES Do

Inspects 100+ items including roof, foundation, structure, and all systems
Identifies active and potential defects with thermal imaging included free
Gives you a detailed report on the home's actual condition
Adds radon and mold testing to screen for hidden health hazards
Gives you the full picture of what you are buying before you close

Why Military Families Need an Inspection More Than Most Buyers.

Protect Your VA Benefit

Your VA loan is one of the most valuable rewards of your service. Don't use it on a home with hidden problems you could have found before closing.

PCS Moves Are High-Pressure

Military families often buy in unfamiliar markets on tight timelines. A thorough inspection keeps you from making a rushed decision you'll regret.

Documented Condition

A detailed report tells you the actual condition of the home, with photos and plain-language explanations of what each finding means. Your agent takes it from there.

Plan for Resale

Military families often sell sooner than average. Knowing what you're buying lets you prioritize maintenance and protect resale value.

For Military & First Responder Buyers

How We Handle Common Situations.

Things that come up often when service members and first responders buy in the Portland metro.

Tight Timelines

Available 7 days a week. Same-day and next-day inspections are usually possible for buyers on a tight closing window or PCS schedule. Call or text (971) 202-1311.

Buying Remotely

Deployed or stationed elsewhere? We coordinate with your agent for access, send video walkthroughs of key findings, and review the report with you by phone.

Investment & Rental Properties

Planning to rent out the home during your next assignment? We flag issues that affect tenants and give you a clear picture of what absentee ownership will look like.

BAH and True Cost of Ownership

Your housing allowance is a fixed budget. The inspection shows you what the home will actually cost to own, including deferred maintenance and upcoming system replacements.

Radon and Mold Testing

Portland has elevated radon risk and a wet climate that makes mold common in crawlspaces and attics. The inspection fee qualifies for the 10% discount, but add-on tests are priced the same for everyone.

Unfamiliar Local Issues

Portland has regional issues outside inspectors miss: underground oil tanks, Federal Pacific panels, CPVC plumbing, clay soil movement, and crawlspace moisture. I live and work here. I know what to look for.

The Discount
10% off the fee for your home inspection, including any older-home adjustment. It does not apply to add-on services such as radon testing, mold testing, pool inspections, detached structures, the property history report, the travel fee, or re-inspections. Those cover lab work and outside costs that get billed at cost. One discount code per booking, and codes cannot be combined. See full pricing on our pricing page.
Active duty service members of all branches, veterans, reservists, National Guard, military retirees, military spouses and families, and Gold Star families. First responders also qualify: police officers, firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics. Both active and retired.

No. These discounts can't be combined with other promo codes. They have no expiration and are always available. They're our best standing offer.

Military Buyers
No. The VA appraisal checks value and basic habitability. It doesn't inspect structural systems in detail, test for radon or mold, or document defects in any depth. A home inspection does all of that and is strongly recommended.
Yes. Military spouses and families qualify for the full discount. We honor the whole family's service.

Multnomah County home inspections. Portland and the rest of Multnomah County are full of older housing stock, including 1920s craftsman bungalows in SE Portland, Pearl District lofts, and mid-century homes in NE Portland. Older homes mean knob-and-tube wiring, cast iron drains, and aging foundations. I’ve inspected hundreds of homes across Multnomah County and know exactly what to look for in each neighborhood.
