• Compound Property Inspections

    Complete Coverage for Multi-Structure Homes

    When a property includes more than just a main house, you need more than just a standard inspection. At Uptown Home Inspections, we specialize in evaluating residential compounds—properties with multiple buildings on a single lot—to give you a full understanding of each structure’s condition, how they connect, and what may need attention.

  • What Is a Residential Compound?

    A residential compound typically includes:

    • A main home

    • One or more accessory dwelling units (ADUs)

    • Guest houses or in-law suites

    • Detached garages or workshops

    • Studios, offices, or pool houses

    • Shared systems like plumbing, septic, or electric panels

    These unique layouts require a custom inspection strategy, and that’s where we come in.

  • What’s Included in a Compound Inspection?

    We inspect each building individually and assess how they function together as a whole. Our detailed inspection includes:

    • Main House Evaluation – Full inspection of all major systems

    • Accessory Units & Outbuildings – Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, foundation

    • Shared Systems – Electrical service distribution, sewer/septic, water pressure

    • Exterior Structures – Garages, patios, decks, fencing, gates

    • Driveways & Drainage – Grading, runoff, and surface condition

    • Crawlspaces & Attics – In every structure where accessible

    • Safety & Code Considerations – Fire separation, unit egress, and occupancy concerns

     We call out issues in both the individual structures and the shared infrastructure—so you can prioritize repairs and protect your full investment.
