Historic Home Inspections

Inspections Tailored for Older and Landmarked Homes

Buying or selling a historic property comes with unique challenges. Prism’s inspectors take extra time and apply a historic perspective to evaluate the systems, safety, and structure of older homes so that you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Why Choose a Historic Home Inspection?

Identify outdated wiring, plumbing, and heating systems
Check for lead, asbestos, and other hazardous materials
Evaluate foundation stability and structural integrity
Understand efficiency issues (insulation, single-pane windows, older HVAC)
Spot hidden deterioration behind “cosmetic” updates
Gain peace of mind with clear safety-first recommendations
