InterNACHI, CPI, certified home inspector

Our inspectors are Certified Professional Inspectors CPI® trained by InterNACHI—the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (www.NACHI.org)—which is the world's largest nonprofit association of residential and commercial property inspectors that provides education, training, and certification.

Our inspectors are graduates of the InterNACHI® School, the world's only home inspector college that offers the nationally-accredited Home Inspector Certificate Program.

Meet Your Inspector

Damon K Verellen

home navigator inspection services, home inspector

Damon has always had a love of homes. He studied drafting and architecture all through school. He would even set aside a day while on vacation to walk through model homes in new construction developments to admire and, of course, critique the floor plan and design elements of the latest and greatest homes. While Damon never pursued architecture or home design as a career, he never stopped designing, learning, and admiring homes.
In 2017 Damon and his family moved to West Virginia and began building their own home from the ground up. During the preceding three years, Damon spent countless hours learning proper building practices, including everything from framing to foundations to plumbing. Damon and his family now enjoy a beautiful home they can proudly say they designed and built themselves.
During the pandemic, Damon received a blessing in disguise, a layoff. The company he worked for was closing its doors. Damon took this opportunity to shift his career toward something he had always loved, homes. He immediately enrolled in a home inspector certification course offered by ICA (Inspection Certification Associates), North America's most trusted inspector training organization. Following graduation from ICA, Damon continues to hone his craft through continuing education courses and relationships with fellow inspectors. Damon has since achieved the title of Certified Professional Inspector from InterNACHI, the world's largest and most respected home inspector association.

My Promise to You

home navigator inspection services crawlspace

Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals you hire, you probably won't meet me until our appointment. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and pricing. 

Ultimately, a thorough home inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector’s own effort. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort. 
​
This, I promise you.
