WELCOME to the home inspectors whose own home is nestled in the heart of ski country.   We are Patrick Wathen and Joni Ellis owners of Independent Property Inspections, Inc.  We have called Summit County home since 1981. Our goal is not to be the biggest home inspection company.  Our goal is simply to the best – the best in service and the best in knowledge of our profession.  Whether you are looking at your mountain dream home or purchasing a small ski condo we strive to provide you, our client, with the most thorough, comprehensive report in the mountains.


How We Help In the Purchase of Your Mountain Home
We want you to “know” the home you are purchasing.  Many components of mountain properties are unique.  We will educate you about the condition of the home as well as teach you about its operating systems.  Our inspections enable you to take control of your real estate transaction by helping you:

• Identify potential problems
  
  
• Report the home's condition and consider possible repairs or upgrades
  
  
• Take measure of your investment decision
  
  
• Experience confidence and peace of mind about your investment

Why Choose Us
Remaining unbiased is crucial to a home inspector.  We are what our name states – INDEPENDENT.  It’s our business.  We work for you, our client. 

We also believe that SERVICE is the key to any good business.  We are available before, during, and after the inspection.  We’re not a franchise or a large company.  We're a dedicated husband and wife team, helping our clients find the right mountain property.

You’ll also want to choose us because of our KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE with inspecting mountain properties.  You don’t need to worry about the company’s “new guy” inspecting your property.  Pat Wathen, owner and certified home inspector will be your inspector.
