In 2004, we set out to create a home inspection company that “raised the bar”. The Real Estate Inspection Company has accomplished that by setting new standards in the industry. We were one of the first companies to embrace computer-generated inspection reports which are a huge improvement over checkbox style or “binder” reports which some inspectors still use today. We also pioneered the use of online scheduling which offered a whole new level of service for buyers and agents.
Most importantly, we use the latest state-of-the-art test equipment including Thermal Infrared Imaging cameras to provide thorough testing of every house we inspect. If you are not familiar with the use of Infrared Thermal Imaging, you owe it to yourself to learn about it.
We identify moisture that other home inspectors can’t. In this example picture, you can see a normal looking interior on the left. But when scanned with an Infrared Camera, you can clearly see the water intrusion that has occurred due to a roof leak. There is also another interesting aspect to this photo. On the left you will see that the left side of the door has a slightly clouded glass. This was due to a failed thermal seal. On the right, the thermal image shows what a difference there is between the good window, and the failed window. See how much heat is coming in through the failed window?
All of our home inspectors are highly trained, prompt and courteous. Our office staff is friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful. As a result, we have become one of the largest independent inspection companies in Southern California.
We now offer the same high level home inspection service to home buyers in Temecula and Murrieta including our Home Inspection Guarantee! Please visit our website to see how we differ from the other inspectors. You can read (and subscribe) to our blog which provides buyers and agents with valuable information; things you should know before making an offer. No one can match our flexibility, service and attention to detail. We look forward to serving you!

Philippe Heller started The Real Estate Inspection Company in 2004 after a really poor home inspection on his own house. He applied his background in technology to build an innovative, industry-leading company. Working for SDG&E, GE Power Systems, Cox Communications and Time Warner Communications taught him a lot about technology, quality, and customer service. These traits are passed on to all of the employees in the company.
