Jim Ingebrigtsen

I provide very thorough and detailed inspections of the property performed in substantial accordance with the scope and standards of practice of both major national inspector associations (NAHI and ASHI). 

I offer Radon testing as an option.

I am licensed by Minneapolis and St Paul to perform Truth in Sale of Housing(TISH) evaluations. City licensing is the only licensing for home inspectors in Minnesota.

My goal is to provide you the information you need to make an informed decision about the actual condition of the large investment you are about to make and call home, with special attention paid to safety issues. Every house has issues,and the issues are often specific to that time period.  You need to know if the issues are major or minor and what you should do about it. I provide a detailed report that identifies the issue(including photos and video), why it's an issue, and what you should do about it. I also include in the report helpful information about specific systems or components installed in the home to further your understanding about the property you are buying.  

Please call or text me at 612-747-2387 or better yet, email me at indepthinspections@gmail.com to arrange a quality inspection of your prospective home.



Qualifications:

Testimonials

Jim has been my ALWAYS go-to inspector for over 10 years. About a third of my clients are first time home buyers, and JIM is an absolute rock-star with them. I have had many clients specifically request Jim again when they return to the real estate market to buy their next homes. They remember him and the great job he did for them.

Jim is very through! He did a great job inspecting a house with its fair share of problems and explaining to us how these items stacked up in the grand scheme of things given the age of the house. I would highly recommend him to any one looking for a house inspection.

Jim was extremely thorough. I met him at the property when he was completed. Jim showed me each of the items he inspected and what his findings were. He answered every question in a manner I understood without making me feel foolish. The completed report was exceptional. It had descriptions and pictures for what he found and what things should look like. Wonderful work and a very nice man.

I have used Jim as my primary Inspector for at least 10 years... could it be that long?? Any way he is the BEST. So thorough, ALWAYS a realist- NEVER an Alarmist. I am particularly happy when he is available for my "First Time Buyers". Over the years, there have been many times when a client will say, "Oh, I remember Jim from last time. Let's us him again for sure."
