Why Choose Our Family Business?

At Bleich Home Inspections, we don’t just inspect houses; we look after our neighbors. As a local, family-owned and operated business, we bring a personalized touch to every inspection that franchises and multi-inspector companies simply cannot match. We understand that your home is one of the biggest investments of your life, and we take our responsibility to protect your family seriously.

• Family-Owned & Local: We live and work in the Greater Fort Wayne area and we are deeply committed to the safety of our community.

• Independent & Unbiased: Because we are fully independent, we work only for you—not for real estate agents or developers. Our loyalty is solely to your peace of mind.

• Licensed & Certified Professionals: Richard Bleich is a licensed home inspector with deep technical knowledge, ensuring you receive an accurate, comprehensive assessment of your property.

• Personalized Service: You will work directly with the owners, ensuring consistent quality and attention to detail from booking to the final report.

We provide a thorough non-invasive, visual, performance based inspection of your new home’s accessible structure, systems, and components and provide detailed report outlining our findings and our professional opinion of the condition of the home.

For a home buyer, this gives you the knowledge to make an informed decision. For a home seller, it allows you to address defects before prospective buyers find them. 

Our experience, training, professionalism, state licensing and industry credentials, will give you the confidence and reduce the anxiety that comes with purchasing a home.
