HouseScan Inspections

What HouseScan Inspections does

HouseScan Inspections is a Jacksonville, Florida-based residential property inspection company founded in 2017 by Kurt Stein, operating across nine Northeast Florida counties (Duval, St. Johns, Clay, Nassau, Baker, Bradford, Putnam, Flagler, Volusia). The company provides comprehensive home inspections for buyers, standalone insurance inspections (4-point and wind-mitigation), new construction and warranty inspections, pre-listing inspections, repair re-inspections, and an Investor Snapshot product tailored to wholesalers and cash buyers. Its operational stack combines FLIR whole-house infrared thermal imaging, the Spectora cloud-based inspection software platform, Supra eKey electronic lockbox access, and an in-house 24/7 real-time online scheduling system with integrated payment processing. AI components are limited to third-party integrations — notably CubiCasa for floorplan generation — and the company runs a six-month inspector training program materially longer than industry norm.

HouseScan's revenue model is entirely unit-priced and transactional: full home inspections range $425–$1,075 based on heated square footage and age (with bundled free wind-mitigation, 4-point, and infrared services), standalone insurance inspections run $105–$260, and add-on services span sewer scope, mold/IAQ testing, WDO, pool, septic, 2D floorplan, and expedited reports. Distribution is primarily direct-to-consumer via the self-serve online scheduler, supplemented by a substantial B2B referral network of 25+ insurance agencies and approved-partner status with nine national home builders, plus dozens of real estate brokerage relationships cultivated by a dedicated Brand Ambassador function. The company self-identifies as the largest and highest-rated home inspection firm in Northeast Florida, citing 338+ five-star Google reviews, 17,000+ cumulative insurance inspections, and 3,000+ annual full home inspections, and was recognized as the 2024 NEFAR Affiliate Member of the Year. HouseScan is privately held, founder-controlled, and operates without disclosed external institutional investment.
