Jim Carlson brings a unique perspective to home inspections—one
rooted in three generations of construction expertise. Born into a
construction family where both his father and grandfather were general
contractors, Jim has lived and breathed the building industry his entire
life.
Jim's comprehensive educational foundation combines technical expertise with business acumen:
Bachelor of Science in Architecture & Business - University of Minnesota
Associate of Applied Science in Architectural Technology - Harper College
After graduation, Jim channeled his knowledge into hands-on
experience, establishing his own design-build company where he designed,
remodeled, and constructed homes. His extensive background spans both
