Meet Your Inspector

Jacob Troost

Owner/Inspector ASHI Certified
State Lic.# RB49660
Click here to verify your home inspector is part of ASHI.


Jacob purchased his first home when he was 23 years old. At the time, he was working as a master automobile technician, and he fell in love with houses. He embraced all aspects of this house, stripped it down to the studs, and rebuilt it with the help of friends in the trades. He learned along the way and finally sold it to do another one and made a handsome profit due to the “sweat equity.” He became proficient with buying & selling these homes after renovations while having his day job in the auto industry.


Transition Into the Inspection Industry

Eventually, he developed the desire to enter the real estate industry as an appraiser. He approached an appraiser he knew, and her response was, “With your mechanical and technical background, you should be a home inspector.” So in 2002, Jacob became an ASHI-certified home inspector.

Don Surrena

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I am a code official and have used Jacob as an expert inspector on many of my problem inspections. He is through and very detail oriented. His long list of credentials have proved invaluable to myself and fellow colleagues. His integrity and honesty allow me recommend his services to other inspectors as well as residents who ask for an inspector for private inspections. I have no reservations in recommending Jacob and will continue to do so.

Anna Ames

Mulberry, SC

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jacob has been my primary inspector since I started selling Real Estate almost 8 years ago. He's very professional, easy to get a hold of, and does a great job. I've asked him to go above and beyond what's expected of him numerous times and he has done just that. It's great to have a team of professionals that you can count on in my line of business and Jacob is definitely a great asset to me.


Jason Wegfahrt

Palmerton, PA

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jacob was a pleasure to work with! He is very knowledgeable, answered all my questions completely, and takes his work very seriously. Jacob's home inspection report is incredibly detailed. It's given me more confidence in the home I am looking to purchase. I would work with Jacob again without a second thought and would recommend Jake anyone purchasing a home.
