Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers regarding home inspections, scheduling, reports, and scope of service across Central Maryland.
What areas in Maryland do you inspect?
Lightning View Home Inspections serves Columbia, Ellicott City, Howard County, Montgomery County, Frederick, Annapolis, Baltimore, Westminster, Bel Air, Bowie, and surrounding Central Maryland communities.
How fast will I receive my home inspection report?
We deliver digital, photo-rich inspection reports rapidly—typically within 24 hours of completing the inspection—ensuring you meet contract contingencies without delay.
Are you a licensed Maryland home inspector?
Yes. Inspector Jordi Solà-Solé was first licensed in Maryland in 2012 (MD License #36109).
Should I attend the home inspection in person?
We strongly encourage buyers to be present at the end of the inspection! Joining for the final walkthrough allows us to explain major findings, point out shut-off valves, and answer your questions directly on-site.
What is a Walk & Talk Inspection Consultation?
In fast-moving real estate markets, buyers often need immediate feedback before making an offer. A Walk & Talk is an on-site, verbal evaluation of visible major systems (roof, panel, HVAC, foundation) conducted during your showing appointment, without a written report.
What components are covered in a residential inspection?
We perform a visual evaluation of accessible structural components, roofing, plumbing, electrical panels and outlets, HVAC systems, attic insulation, doors, windows, and attached garages in accordance with Maryland Standards of Practice.
