Happy Memorial Day from The House Detectives family to yours. 🇺🇸

On this day, we remember and honor the brave men and women of our armed forces who gave their lives in service to this country and to the communities we all call home.

We've spent 30+ years inspecting Oregon homes from Portland to the coast, Salem to Mt. Hood. Every house we walk through is someone's dream, someone's future and that matters because of the freedom those who served fought to protect.

Wishing all Oregon families a safe and meaningful day. 🙏

Quick Trivia:

Over 40% of homes in the Portland metro were built before 1980, meaning issues like knob-and-tube wiring, asbestos, and polybutylene piping are still commonly found during inspections today.

🍽️ A Great Night with the Team! 🏡🔎

Back in February, part of the The House Detectives team took some time to step away from inspections and enjoy a well-deserved partial team dinner together. While not everyone could make it, it was a great opportunity for some of the crew to connect, share stories from the field, and enjoy a relaxed evening outside of the daily inspection schedule.

At The House Detectives, teamwork is a big part of what makes us successful. Behind every detailed inspection report is a group of professionals who collaborate, support each other, and work toward the same goal, providing our clients with the highest level of service and peace of mind.

Moments like this remind us that a strong team culture helps us continue delivering the quality and professionalism our clients trust every day.

Here’s to more inspections, more teamwork, and more great moments together in 2026! 🔍🏡
