Strongsville has been one of the fastest-growing cities in Ohio for years now, and that growth shows up directly in the kind of inspection work we do here. New subdivisions keep expanding out through the Prospect Road corridor, while established neighborhoods around the downtown square keep changing hands as buyers look for character homes closer to the historic town square. The result is more real estate transactions per month than almost anywhere else in our service area, and since every home sale legally requires a Level 2 inspection under NFPA 211, Strongsville is where we perform the highest volume of pre-purchase inspections we do anywhere.
That volume has made us efficient at exactly this kind of inspection without cutting corners. A Level 2 for a Strongsville sale includes the same full video camera scan of the flue interior and check of attic, basement, and crawlspace access points regardless of whether the home is a 1940s cottage near the square or a five-year-old build off Prospect Road — the housing stock varies a lot here, but the documentation buyers and sellers need doesn’t. Older downtown-area homes tend to turn up more masonry-related findings, like aging mortar or a flue liner that’s never been relined, while newer Prospect Road corridor homes more often check out cleanly or need only a cap or gasket replacement.
Whichever category your sale falls into, we provide a written report you can hand directly to your realtor or the other party in the transaction, and we’re used to working within real estate timelines that don’t leave much room to wait.
