Prairie Village has a large number of older homes that have been updated, expanded, and
remodeled over the years. While many of these homes are well maintained, it’s common to see
a mix of original components and newer repairs throughout the property. A thorough inspection
helps buyers better understand how those systems are performing today before moving forward
with closing.
Dru Gordon is an ASHI certified home inspector who performs inspections throughout Prairie
Village and the surrounding Johnson County area.
During a home inspection in Prairie Village, the major systems and structural components of the
home are carefully evaluated. This includes the roof, attic, foundation, structure, electrical
system, plumbing, heating and cooling equipment, and the overall exterior condition of the
property.
Homes in Prairie Village often have older construction details, additions, updated finishes, or
repairs completed at different points over the life of the home. Part of the inspection process is
evaluating how those components were installed and how they are currently performing.
Areas such as basements, crawlspaces, and attic spaces are also important parts of the
inspection since they often reveal moisture conditions, ventilation concerns, drainage issues, or
signs of previous repair work that may not be visible during a showing.
The goal of the inspection is to provide buyers with a clear understanding of the home and
identify conditions that may affect the safety, function, or long term performance of the property.
Once the inspection is complete, the main findings are reviewed with the buyer and any
questions can be addressed on site. Inspection reports are typically delivered within a few hours
so the information can be reviewed while everything is still fresh.
Depending on the property, some buyers also choose to add services such as radon testing,
mold testing, or sewer scope inspections for a more complete evaluation.
