How much does a home inspection cost?

At CGI, we may charge a little more than other home inspection companies in the Columbia River Gorge area. Why? We charge more because we spend more time inspecting and writing high quality detailed reports, we use the best tools and technology available, we use the latest and most advanced software available, we are very well trained and detail oriented which will make a difference as you purchase your new home. We care about you and your big purchase as is evident by the largest number of five star reviews in the area. These are the benefits of using the Premier inspection company in the Columbia River Gorge!

The pricing for attached ADUs, duplexes and triplexes is based on the total square footage and the number of units in the property. To get the proper pricing, start by pricing the total square footage of all of the units and then add $125 for each additional unit. For example, an 1,850 total square foot duplex would be $500 based on the single family home pricing plus $125 for the additional unit or $625 total. Please contact us for a custom quote to get pricing for multifamily homes with more than three units. Detached units with their own address are priced separately as single family homes.

We provide the Short-Term Rental Fire & Life Safety Inspection that is required by the City of Hood River for $300. This is a limited inspection that addresses only those items required for your STR application and renewal.

For the inspection of homes built between 1951 and 1978, an additional fee of $50 is added. For homes built between 1923 and 1950, an additional fee of $100 is added. For homes built prior to 1923, an additional fee of $175 is added. This fee helps cover the increased costs associated with inspecting older homes including additional inspection time and difficulty, to provide you with a thorough report.

If you are active duty military, a veteran or a First Responder (police, fire, EMS) then we want to say Thank You by providing you with a $50 discount on your full home inspection. Use the coupon code “HERO” when scheduling your home inspection online. We ask that you verify your status as a “HERO” at the time of the inspection.

Please schedule your inspection based on the home’s actual square footage. Fees may be adjusted if the home to be inspected is not as scheduled.
