Member of the Texas Association of Real Estate Inspectors (TAREI). Member of the Austin Board of Realtors (ABOR).

(14) Years of construction and maintenance experience as craftsman, superintendent & builder for residential, commercial & industrial projects.

In 1993 Steve obtained his Texas Real Estate Commission Inspector License. In 1997 Steve became licensed by the Texas Structural Pest Control Board.

In 1997 Steve attained Code Certification through the (SBCCI) Southern Building Code Congress International for One & Two Family Dwellings. This certification is much more difficult to attain than the Texas Real Estate Commission license. The test for this certification requires passing a 4 section exam (Structural, Mechanical, Plumbing, & Electrical). 8 hours are provided for the exam. If the inspector fails one section the entire exam must be taken again. Few home inspectors have this certification.

Steve is approved by the Home Buyers Warranty Corp. as a new construction warranty inspector.

Steve has performed in excess of 6,000 home inspections in the Central & Southeast Texas Regions. With 27 years of combined construction and inspection experience you can be assured that you have someone that understands buildings from the inside out. The experience he has comes from both sides of the transaction. From being a contractor, dealing with other contractors and an inspector. This experience helps Steve educate his clients about their purchase. In the inspection industry it is easy to "scare" people, it is much more difficult to "educate" them. At Apex Inspections, we provide thorough, detailed reports that allow our clients to make an educated decision about the property they are purchasing.
