The most expensive problem is the one you find after you sign.

Once you sign the delivery act or close, fixing defects is usually your cost. These are problems that are hard to spot on a regular walkthrough, and the ones we look for first.

Hidden moisture and salt damage

Salt air and poor waterproofing can soak walls from the inside. Our thermal camera shows moisture you cannot see with the naked eye.

Roof and waterproofing failures

Cracked slabs and badly applied waterproofing often show up with the first heavy rain, months after you move in.

Electrical and gas safety issues

Undersized wiring, missing grounding or a poorly installed gas line are safety risks, not just repairs. This is our engineer’s specialty.

Why buyers choose Baja Home Check

Two specialists, one visit

Our engineer checks electrical, gas, plumbing and solar. Our architect checks structure, waterproofing, windows and finishes.

Built for Mexican homes

Block, concrete and rebar, Mexican standards and coastal conditions, reported in the U.S. format you already know.

Plain language, never alarmist

We tell you what is urgent, what can wait and what is normal in Baja, and we walk you through the report by phone.

We work only for you

Never for the builder or the seller. You get an independent opinion, so you can negotiate repairs with confidence.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a home inspection in Baja cost?

Inspections start at $5,000 MXN (about US$271), IVA included. The final price depends on the size and type of home, and we confirm it in a free written quote before the visit.

How long does the inspection take?

Usually 2 to 4 hours on site, depending on the size and condition of the home.

When do I get the report?

Within 2–3 business days after the visit, in English and Spanish, with photos and findings ranked by priority.

Should I inspect a brand-new home?

Yes. New homes can have moisture, waterproofing, electrical, gas and finish defects. Inspecting before you sign the delivery act lets you ask the builder to fix them while it is still their responsibility.

Which days do you inspect in my area?

We group visits by route: Tijuana, Tecate, Rosarito, Ensenada and Valle de Guadalupe on Thursdays and Fridays; San Felipe on Saturdays; Mexicali Monday to Saturday. If you need a different day, choose it in the quote form: days outside the route have a $3,000 MXN travel fee, and dates less than 48 hours away have a 25% short-notice fee. We do not do same-day inspections or Sundays.

Do I need to be there?

No, but you are welcome to join. We need access to the property with power, water and gas connected.

What is not included?

The inspection is visual and non-invasive. It does not include building-code certification, structural calculations, appraisals, laboratory tests or hidden areas. Details in our Terms and conditions.
