Hazel Dell, Washington Home Inspections

Why get a professional home inspection? A home inspection can help you learn more about your home, prioritize home repairs and maintenance and more.

Buyers

Know what you are getting upfront — before signing your name on the dotted line. A home is a huge investment. Safeguard that investment with a professional home inspection. Waiting until after the sale to discover problems can cost you big time. A Hazel Dell, Washington home inspection will help you understand the true condition of your home. Right from the start, you will know if there are major problems. This information will help you make the right home buying decision.

Sellers

Make selling your home a lot easier with a quality home inspection. Avoid lengthy negotiation delays by getting a home inspection before listing your home. This will let you know if there are any major issues that you need to deal with ahead of time. You’ll be in the know before potential buyers, which puts you at an advantage. Plus, being proactive and getting a home inspection gives you a marketing edge. It can help you price your home right from the start. And, it says to buyers that you are open and honest about the condition of your home.

Landlords

As a landlord, you probably do routine walk-through inspections of your properties periodically. However, these aren’t enough. In addition, you should have professional inspections done periodically. Even if you have perfect long-term tenants, inspections by a licensed professional are a must. A thorough inspection helps preserve your investment. Imagine this scenario: a plumbing leak causes wet rot on vital wooden support beams. This problem goes unnoticed by tenants for years. You do walk-throughs but don’t get into the crawlspace so you don’t notice it either— until the old tenants move out and you are prepping the space for new ones. You now have to shore up the home and install new support beams under the house. This costs thousands of dollars in repairs and you lose money as the new residents can’t move in until the problem is fixed. This whole scenario could have been avoided with a professional inspection.

Hazel Dell Home Inspection

Nonprofit Home Inspections has inspected many homes in Hazel Dell and the surrounding Clark County area. Since Hazel Dell was one of the first suburban developments constructed in the area after World War II, many homes in this area are from the 1940s-50s era. While many homes of this era are still in good condition, be sure to read some of our articles related to older homes, such as unlined chimneys, improper bathroom fans, and knob-and-tube wiring.

Hazel Dell is an unincorporated area of Clark County that is on the northern border of Vancouver city limits. Running parallel to the I-5 corridor, Hazel Dell sits in a prime suburban area with easy access to the Portland metro area. With Vancouver Lake and Burnt Bridge Creek only a few miles to the west, Hazel Dell has an abundance of outdoor activities in the immediate vicinity.

Originally settled by Oregon Country pioneers Reese and Sarah J. Anderson in 1855, Hazel Dell was named by Sarah for the abundance of filbert trees in the area. While residents briefly considered the name “Bear Gulch” due to the amounts of bears that were once common in the wild berry fields throughout the region, Hazel Dell became the accepted name for the area. While the region has continued to grow rapidly, currently with over 19,000 residents, agriculture is still apparent in the area with many U-pick farms for both fruits and vegetables. The area is famous for its summer markets and the annual “Parade of Bands”, Hazel Dell has adopted a suburban pace in an area that was mostly quiet cow pastures until the 1960’s.
