Section 8 Inspection Preparation in Louisville, KY

Get Your Rental Property Ready Before the Official Section 8 Inspection

Save time and money. Avoid unnecessary delays. Get your rental property ready for its Section 8 inspection.

Are you a Louisville rental property owner or real estate investor preparing a property for a new Section 8 tenant?

Gold Home Inspection offers pre-inspection services for Section 8 rental properties to help landlords identify potential problems before the official housing authority inspection takes place.

Our inspections focus on the applicable HUD Housing Quality Standards (HQS) and other inspection requirements used by the local housing authority. We look for common deficiencies that could cause your property to fail its initial inspection.

Why pay for multiple official inspections or experience unnecessary delays when you can identify potential problems beforehand?

Experience That Comes From Owning Section 8 Properties

Gold Home Inspection is different because your inspection is personally performed by Marty Goldsmith, owner of Gold Home Inspection.

Marty has owned and managed Section 8 rental properties since 1999. He understands the challenges landlords face when preparing rental properties for housing authority inspections.

This isn't just inspection experience. It is firsthand experience as a rental property owner who understands the importance of getting properties ready, keeping tenants satisfied, and protecting your investment.

All inspections are personally performed by Marty Goldsmith. Your inspection will not be handed off to an employee or subcontractor.
