Close-knit, Welcoming, and Comfortable

Salmon Creek is a close-knit community with lots of available resources and comfortable neighborhoods that are safe and friendly. It’s located within easily manageable distances from both Portland and Vancouver, for additional entertainment and recreational opportunities. Salmon creek is very woodsy and green, providing a rural feel to an urban area.

New and Old - Side by Side

A suburban neighborhood with a wide range of housing options for prospective buyers. Real estate primarily made up of small to medium sized high-rise apartments and single-family homes, occupied by a mixture of owners and renters. Many of the Salmon Creek neighborhoods are newer, built in 2000 or more recently while a number of other residences were built between 1970 and 1999.

A Vibrant Community

Enjoy the eclectic Salmon Creek Farmers’ Market through the summer months from June through October. This community-run event occurs weekly and offers a tempting variety of produce from local farmers and items created by artisans drawn from the surrounding area who offer environmentally friendly products using repurposed items or naturally produced materials.

Nature in an Urban Setting

Tracing three miles of the area’s namesake waterway, the Salmon Creek Greenway winds around wildlife interpretive areas, native salmon runs, and restored wetland habitat frequented by herons and nesting ducks. The paved, shared-use trail is perfect for walkers, joggers, bikers, and equestrian use. Follow the trail to its terminus at Klineline Pond for rainbow and brown trout fishing. Despite the urban setting there are sightings of deer, rabbits, raccoons, beavers, coyotes, and opossums.

Salmon Creek Home Inspection Questions

Top-Rated Home Inspectors in Salmon Creek, WA!

Are you purchasing a Salmon Creek home built in the last twenty or thirty years?

Older homes bring concerns newer homes don’t. Has the electrical system been modernized? Does the furnace function well? Are the basement walls stable? A qualified home inspector in Salmon Creek, WA who’s dealt with older homes can help you make smarter purchasing decisions by conducting a thorough home inspection. In addition, we recommend performing a sewer scope, and radon testing to ensure there’ll be no surprises after move-in.

Can potentially expensive issues be caught by a Salmon Creek inspector before buying?

Our residential inspectors are specially trained and certified to be the best in the industry. Everything might look good during your walk-through with your realtor. But it’s better to have an inspector to check all aspects of your home. Our inspectors can see signs that others might miss: moisture, mold, leaks, foundation concerns, and unsafe structural concerns like rotting. These are not easy nor cheap fixes, and that’s why we recommend hiring a home inspector.

Qualified Salmon Creek home inspectors can help you gain valuable insights into maintenance issues.

Our inspectors are knowledgeable and considerate. Not only will we point out the problems in the home, but we also make sure to explain our recommendation. For homeowners who like to take on their own improvement projects, this will be quite helpful. For homeowners who would rather hire a contractor to do the work, then it’s good to know the correct approach to fix the problems. This way, you can ensure that you hire the right contractor.

Should I re-inspect the home I am buying before closing?

When you buy a home with big elements that may potentially need repairs and major maintenance down the road, it’s always a good idea to do a re-inspection before closing to ensure that the seller has properly repaired all the items agreed upon.

A detailed home inspection report can help you avoid unexpected costly future repairs.

For most of us, buying a home will be one of the biggest investments we make in a lifetime. With any investment, there are risks involved. That’s why it’s important to do your due diligence up front before committing.

By hiring the right inspector, you can minimize risks by identifying costly repairs like electrical, plumbing issues, or structural defects. Let us help you avoid money pits that will cost tens and thousands of your hard-earned money. Contact us today to schedule a home inspection in Salmon Creek, WA.

Why should I consider a structural pest inspection in Salmon Creek?

Our structural pest inspectors in Salmon Creek, WA do check for common signs of pest infestations and dry rot during your comprehensive home inspection. If we find any issues that require further investigation, we will make recommendations accordingly so you may request an extension to ensure the home you are buying is free from any major issues.

TESTIMONIALS

What Our Clients Say

I was buying a house which had failed a previous inspection. The seller’s stated that they had fixed a lot of the major problems identified by the first inspection including standing water in the crawl space. I was buying the house as-is so getting a good inspection was very important to me. Geoff has over 20 years experience in his field. Geoff and his partner TJ were able to verify that the repairs had been done and they also discovered that the problem in the crawl space had only been partially remediated (there was still standing water present). With their inspection report, I was able to negotiate a satisfactory deal with the sellers and felt a lot more confident in my home purchase. Geoff and TJ were professional, on-time, and very clear in their communications. I highly recommend Bennett Home Inspections.”
