Lessons for small inspection shops from a 700,000 sq ft project

Inspections don’t get much bigger than this one – 700,000 sq ft of property waiting to be inspected. While most solo inspectors probably won’t find themselves tackling something of this scale, the strategies used by Greenworks Inspections can inspire inspectors of all types to level up their inspection game.

In this episode of The Ride Along, Harmony Brown, Founder of Greenworks, and her team take on this Texas-sized challenge. Along the way, they uncovered surprises, navigated hurdles, and showcased strategies you can adapt to your inspections.

Here’s what solo inspectors can take away:

  • Expect the unexpected: Vacant properties often come with twists – like a door that opens to nowhere or areas that are tough to access
  • Keep safety top of mind: From sneaky termites to structural hazards, this project was full of teachable moments
  • Work smarter, not harder: Greenworks had a lot of ground to cover – literally. While you might not be inspecting properties of this size, refining your process (like organizing reports or managing schedules efficiently) makes a big impact on any job

Whether your next inspection is 1,000 square feet or 10,000, these lessons can help you stay sharp, efficient, and ready for anything!
