About Your Inspector

 Meet me, Carrie, I’m the certified licensed inspector and owner of Vantage Home Inspections. I am passionate about homes and the significance they hold. I was born in Ohio where my dad, Dale, built our first home from the ground up.  My grandfather was a contractor and his father was an electric lineman.  I guess you could say, this is a generational passion that runs in my genes! 

After my wife and I purchased our first home, I really dug into the building science and systems of homes, working on everything in our home on my own.  DIYs and home maintenance projects are very rewarding for me. After many years of being a chef/manager in the restaurant industry, I took the leap into home inspections.  I believe providing home owners with a thorough and educative report of their home is a very valuable component to the home buying process and you deserve to have a knowledgeable and experienced home inspector. 

I am certified through two nationally recognized training institutes; InterNachi and ATI. Certified Commercial Inspector through Certified Commercial Property Inspectors Association.  

I empathize with the ‘almost dreaded’  anticipation of the home inspector’s findings; let’s face it, it can be scary. But with an informative report and guidance, that process doesn’t have to be as daunting.  
 With a commitment to continuous learning and certifications, I strive to provide services that exceed your expectations.
