DeSoto Home Inspection Services  was started in 2002 and I completed my inspector’s criteria  with Thomson Education Direct.  I became licensed that same year when I passed the Home Inspector examination.  I am a Certified Inspector with InterNACHI in 2002 and in 2004 became a Residential Builder to better my qualifications. After performing over 1000 inspections in the Greater Memphis area, I received my Master Inspector Certification. To date,  I have performed over 5000 inspections for buyers, sellers and HUD.  I’ve also performed commercial inspections on hotels and apartments.

 

I served on the Ethics of Standards of Practice Committee Board for the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors from 2004 to 2010

 

In 2003 I was awarded a contract performing Special Property Inspections with the US Department of HUD. This contract lasted 5 1/2 years. After the expiration of this contract, I became a field inspector for the US Department of HUD where I continue to perform HUD Property Inspections. 

 

About Frank Magdefrau, Certified Master Inspector:

 

One of my goals in life is to have a career that allows me the opportunity to work from home and have the flexibility to spend as much time with my family while providing a service that is truly needed.  This chosen career gives me a chance to be with people during some of their happiest times.

 

I strive each and everyday to provide the best possible service to fulfill my clients’ expectations while achieving my self goals.  This goal was reached when I became a Certified, Insured, Licensed, and experienced Master Home and Commercial Property Inspector, serving the Greater Memphis area and surrounding cities.
