Buying a home with mature trees can add beauty and value, but it can also come with hidden risks.
Structural defects, declining tree health, or poor placement near structures can lead to costly removals, property damage, or safety concerns after you move in.
Our pre-purchase tree evaluations help you understand those risks before you commit.
This service is designed for:
Home buyers under contract
Real estate agents supporting their clients through due diligence
Properties with large or mature trees
Older homes or wooded lots
Buyers concerned about risk or liability
If you've ever looked at a property and thought, "Are those trees going to be a problem?" - this service is for you.
Each evaluation is focused, practical, and easy to understand.
Your assessment includes:
Property walk-through with on-site inspection of selected trees on the property
Identification of visible structural defects and potential hazards
Basic assessment of tree health and condition
Estimated tree maintenance outlook
Clear guidance on which trees may require removal or ongoing maintenance
A written summary report for your records or negotiation
Why this matters
Tree-related issues are often overlooked during home inspections, and they can be expensive.
An upfront investment can prevent major unexpected costs. Our goal is to give you clear, objective information so you can make an informed decision. You'll walk away knowing which trees are low concern, which trees may require attention, and which trees could pose a future risk.
Pricing
Real estate pre-purchase tree evaluations: $400-$600 (depending on property size and scope of evaluation).
Mileage is charged at the current IRS standard rate.
