TOWNHOUSE AND CONDOMINIUM INSPECTIONS
Know what’s yours to maintain—and what needs a closer look.
Buyer-focused visual inspections of accessible townhouse and condo components, with detailed photos, clear findings and a personal walkthrough.
A closer look.
A useful answer.
Townhouses and condominiums may share walls, systems or association-maintained areas. Before you buy, an inspection helps you understand the visible condition of the home and identify issues to discuss with your agent, seller or association. Royal serves Greater Charlotte and Lake Norman, including Mooresville, Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Denver and Statesville.
Lead inspector Derek (North Carolina license #6010) schedules one home inspection per day. Most visits take three to four hours, with five hours reserved. He checks every safely accessible outlet, switch, window and door, and uses thermal imaging, moisture meters and gas-detection tools during the inspection. When gas service is present, accessible exposed gas joints are evaluated. Buyers may join the closing walkthrough; detailed, photo-rich reports are typically ready the same day. Residential inspections start at $400. Call or text (980) 412-5959 or email royal1homeinspections@gmail.com, Monday through Sunday, 7 a.m.–8 p.m.

What we look at.
And what it tells you.
Exterior and structure
Visible exterior walls, windows, doors, balconies or decks, safely accessible roof components and foundations may be evaluated. Shared or association-maintained areas require confirmed access and scope.
Interior and systems
Accessible interior components and installed plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling systems are evaluated, as are accessible attic, basement or garage areas when present. Every safely accessible outlet, switch, window and door is checked.
Inspection tools
Thermal imaging and moisture meters support evaluation of selected areas. With gas service, a detector is used on accessible, exposed gas joints. Tools cannot reveal every concealed condition.
Visual, non-invasive limits
The inspection does not open walls or remove finishes. Stored items, locked spaces, unsafe conditions or areas outside the agreed unit scope can restrict access; inaccessible components are not represented as inspected.
Are shared building and association areas included?
Not automatically. Shared systems and common areas require agreed scope and access. Clarify responsibilities with the association or seller before scheduling.
Can an inspection see behind walls or finishes?
No. It is visual and non-invasive. Thermal and moisture tools support observations but cannot confirm every concealed condition.
How long does it take, and when is the report ready?
Most visits take three to four hours, with five hours reserved. Buyers may attend the walkthrough; photo-rich reports are typically delivered the same day.
One home a day. Your full attention.
