Inspection fees are based primarily on the home's square footage, age, and foundation type (slab or crawl space). Most inspections for an average-sized home range from $375 to $475. Larger homes and multi-family properties generally require additional time and higher fees.

A typical inspection of an average-sized home with a slab foundation requires approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours on site. Larger homes, crawl space foundations, and multi-family properties will typically require additional inspection time.

Please Note: I am licensed to perform home inspections only within the State of Arkansas. Multi-family inspections are limited to properties containing up to four dwelling units (quadplexes). Commercial property inspections are not offered.

To schedule an inspection and receive an exact quote, please complete the form below. Pricing is determined based on the property's square footage and other relevant factors. Homes exceeding 4,000 square feet require a custom quote by phone.

I look forward to helping you make a more informed real estate decision.

Hi, and welcome! I'm Eric Sweet, owner of Sweet Real Estate Inspections.

As a licensed Arkansas Home Inspector (License #HI2136), I take pride in providing thorough, professional inspections and clear reporting that helps clients better understand the condition of a home. My goal is to provide objective information about the property's visible and readily accessible systems and components so you can make informed decisions with greater confidence.

For full transparency in real estate transactions, I am also a licensed Arkansas REALTOR® affiliated with 725 Foundation Properties, located at 1201 Garrison Avenue in Fort Smith, Arkansas. My home inspection company is independently owned and operated. In accordance with Arkansas regulations and professional ethics, I do not perform inspections on properties in which I have a financial interest or may receive compensation related to the sale.

Whether you're buying, selling, or simply seeking a better understanding of your home, I am committed to providing professional service, clear communication, and detailed inspection reports that are easy to understand.

Ready to get started? Contact me today with any questions or schedule your inspection online. I look forward to helping you make a more informed and confident real estate decision.

Priority Maintenance for Home Buyers

There are so many home maintenance and repair items that are important; it can be confusing trying to establish which are the most critical. To simplify things, we have compiled a short list of our favorites. These are by no means all-inclusive, nor do they replace any of the information in a home inspection report. They should, however, help you get started on the right foot. Remember, any items marked as priority or safety issues on your home inspection report need immediate attention.

One-Time Tasks

Install smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors as required, according to manufacturer’s recommendations. Know the requirements in your area.
Make any electrical improvements recommended in the home inspection report.
Remove any wood/soil contact to prevent rot and insect damage.
Change the locks on all doors. Use a dead bolt for better security and to minimize insurance costs.
Correct trip hazards such as broken or uneven walks and driveways, loose or torn carpet or uneven flooring.
Correct unsafe stairways and landings. (Railings missing, loose, too low, et cetera.)
Have all chimneys inspected before operating any of these appliances.
Locate and mark the shut-offs for the heating, electrical and plumbing systems.
Label the circuits in electrical panels.
If there is a septic system, have the tank pumped and inspected. If the house is on a private water supply (well), set up a regular testing procedure for checking water quality.

Regular Maintenance Items

Clean the gutters in the spring and fall.
Check for damaged roofing and flashing materials twice a year.
Cut back trees and shrubs from the house walls, roof and air conditioning system as needed.
Clean the tracks on horizontal sliding windows annually, and ensure the drain holes are clear.
Test ground fault circuit interrupters, carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors using the test button, monthly.
Service furnace or boiler yearly.
Check furnace filters, humidifiers and electronic air cleaners monthly.
Check the bathtub and shower caulking monthly and improve promptly as needed.
If you are in a climate where freezing occurs, shut off outdoor water faucets in the fall.
Check reversing mechanism on garage door opener monthly.
Check attics for evidence of leaks and condensation and make sure vents are not obstructed, at least twice a year. (Provide access into all attics and crawl spaces.)
