For all FHA and VA loans, an engineer's foundation certification is required that states that the home is placed on a permanent foundation that complies with the "HUD Permament Foundation Guide for Manufactured Homes", dated 1996 by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).We have partnered with the engineers at Foundation Certifications to provide a turn-key foundation certification service to you.

Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining your home, Northridge Home Inspections LLC provides professional and quality service from the moment you call us. Our certified home inspectors will walk through your home with you and teach you as much as you want to learn. We follow the Standards of Practice for home inspectors established by the Washington State Department of Licensing.
After we walk through the home together, we will explain the general condition of the home and systems with you and your agent. We will talk through any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read Spectora report, which will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. From that report, you will be able to see the items we discussed, with images for reference.
