“NOT knowing much about houses actually helped”
That was back in 2003.
I’d just moved back to Kansas City and had never heard of home inspections.
And since it was all new, I had to break things down into simple terms.
Little did I know, this would help me do the same thing for my clients.
But the early years were rough.
I was trained well, but that has nothing to do with making the phone ring.
So when real estate crashed in 2008, I had to get a second job.
Then I got fired – TWICE.
I took that as a sign to go all in with home inspections, but I needed to things differently this time time.
First, I left my franchise and started Bulldog Professional Inspection Services.
Then I started listening to the people who actually used my service (instead of my franchise).
And I learned about 5 things people really want:
- Great service
- Simple explanations
- A thorough inspection
- Same-day report
- Follow-up support
It would be awhile for Bulldog to pick up steam, but I was on the right track.
I kept working and testing every idea I could think of to inch my way better.
It’s the same way today.
Fast forward and this has helped us not only become one of the highest-rated(1) home inspection companies in Kansas City, but also one of its bes/25-under-25/t small businesses.
And once you know, it’s easy to understand why…
We Focus On One Thing: Home Inspections
We’re not the jack of all trades and we’re not ‘pretty good’ at several things.
We concentrate our considerable experience and resources on mastering the ONLY thing that really matters:
Finding, prioritizing, and helping you

And I’ve uncovered TENS-OF-THOUSANDS of defects in over 14,000 inspections since 2003.
So while others may dabble, we’ve committed our years of laser-focused attention into the areas of your home they overlook to uncover the details they miss.

– S. SILVERS, KANSAS CITY, MO
“Would You Turn Down $3,500?” (2)
Probably not. But you might if you chose another inspection company.
You see, in the hundreds of follow-up discussions we’ve had over the years, we’ve found that you can expect an average of $3,500 (sometimes upwards of $40,000) in repairs, concessions, and price reduction after your home inspection.(2)
That’s an average return of 786% on your investment.(3)
What could you do with that?
- Bathroom remodel?
- Family vacation?
- Paint the house?
- New refrigerator?
- New washer and dryer?
- New car?
A Few Who Saw This Kind Of Return (and more):
Mark S. from Shawnee got a 15-year-old roof completely removed and replaced with a brand new $9,000 40-year roof because hail damage caused water leaks above his living room and dining room ceilings (damage that was missed by a previous home inspector because he didn’t even walk on the roof).
Steven G. from Lee’s Summit got $6,500 worth of foundation and basement repairs completed before he even moved in, which stopped the water that was leaking through the foundation and creating deadly mold behind the drywall – mold he didn’t even know was there.
Scott T. is a real estate investor from Colorado who got over $3,100 in plumbing drains professionally replaced in his rental property when it was discovered that it cracked his drain lines and he had a major tree root problem lurking in his front yard.
Oh, there’s Brandon H. from Liberty who had $4,300 worth of electrical work done before he even closed on the home that included new electrical service and new main panel because the old service was unsafe and the original panel was not only recalled by the manufacturer, but also full of deadly homemade wiring just waiting for the right time to arc, spark, and catch fire.
You get the picture.
