Your Local Inspector for the Colorado River Valley

Whether you are buying a historic home on East 3rd Street in Rifle, a ranch property in Silt, or a modern home in Lakota Canyon (New Castle), you need an inspector who knows the territory.

We don’t just inspect houses; we understand the unique challenges of our stretch of the Colorado River Valley—from the grading and drainage issues in Silt to the radon risks in New Castle. We provide the clarity you need to negotiate with confidence.

What We Inspect

Professional Home Inspections in Rifle, Silt & New Castle

At Fancy Fox Property Inspections, we know that homes in the Colorado River Valley face unique challenges—from aging systems in historic Rifle homes to grading and drainage issues in Silt and New Castle. We don’t just inspect; we investigate using advanced tools and local knowledge to protect your investment.

What’s Included in Your Home Inspection:

  • Structure & Foundation: A complete visual evaluation, checking for the common settlement issues often found in local expansive soils.
  • Roofing System: Assessment of coverings, flashings, and penetrations—critical for our high-wind days in the valley.
  • Electrical & Plumbing: Full inspection of panels, outlets, fixtures, and water pressure.
  • HVAC Performance: Testing heating and cooling systems to ensure they can handle our high desert temperature swings.
  • Attic & Ventilation: Checking insulation levels and airflow to prevent energy loss.
  • Thermal Imaging: Included FREE to detect hidden moisture and insulation gaps that the naked eye can’t see.

Every inspection includes the InterNACHI $25,000 Honor Guarantee, ensuring peace of mind for your largest investment.

Why Hire Us?

Why Rifle, Silt & New Castle Trust Fancy Fox

Whether you are buying acreage on Silt Mesa, a townhome in Rifle Village South, or a property in Castle Valley, we provide independent assessments to protect your investment.

Led by Wade McFarland (InterNACHI® NACHI-22020624 | CCPIA-002169), we prioritize quality over speed. Unlike high-volume firms that rush through three houses a day, our policy is strict: we schedule only one inspection per inspector per day. This allows us to spend an average of 4 hours on-site, ensuring no detail in your new home is overlooked.

What Sets Us Apart:

  • No Rush Policy: We dedicate the entire day to your home, not just a 2-hour slot.
  • Post-Inspection Video Review: We are the only local inspector to walk you through your report line-by-line via video, so you understand every issue.
  • Advanced Thermal Imaging: Included FREE to find hidden leaks behind walls and missing insulation in attics.

Whether you are buying acreage on Silt Mesa, a townhome in Rifle Village South, or a property in Castle Valley, we provide independent assessments to protect your investment.

After Your Home Inspection

The inspection is just the beginning

Typically within 24 hours, you receive a modern, interactive digital report that works beautifully on any phone or tablet. Instead of confusing handwritten checklists, our reports feature high-resolution photos, video clips, and color-coded summaries.

You will know instantly which items are critical safety hazards and which are simple maintenance tips for your new Parachute or Battlement Mesa home.

The Video Review Difference

Most inspectors just email you a PDF and disappear. Conversely, we take a different approach. We provide a Post-Inspection Online Video Review. We hop on a video call with you to walk through the report line-by-line, answering your questions until you are 100% confident.
