Buying, selling, or maintaining a home in East Texas is a big deal. At Palmer Inspections, we know that homes in Longview, Tyler, Marshall, Kilgore, Henderson, and the surrounding communities all have their own unique stories — and sometimes, challenges.
That’s why we’re excited to launch the Palmer Inspections Blog — a place where homeowners, buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals can find clear, reliable, and practical information about taking care of homes here in East Texas.
Who We Are
Palmer Inspections is a home inspection company based right here in Longview, Texas. We’re dedicated to helping people make confident decisions about their homes. Whether you’re buying for the first time, preparing to sell, or simply trying to keep your home in great shape, our goal is to make the inspection process simple, clear, and valuable.
We’re not just about identifying issues — we’re about giving you peace of mind and the knowledge you need to protect your investment.
Why This Blog Exists
We created this blog to be more than just a collection of articles. It’s designed to be a trusted home resource for East Texans.
Too often, homeowners are left guessing about what’s really happening in their homes. Buyers may feel nervous about hidden problems. Sellers might wonder which repairs are worth addressing before listing. Realtors want their clients to feel confident in their decisions.
This blog is here to answer those questions — with information that’s relevant, easy to understand, and specific to our region.
What You Can Expect
Here’s what you’ll find on the Palmer Inspections Blog:
- Home Buyer Education – Guides on what to expect from inspections, how to read reports, and how inspections protect your investment.
- Home Seller Education – Tips on pre-listing inspections, handling repairs, and presenting your home to buyers with confidence.
- East Texas–Specific Guidance – From foundation issues caused by clay-rich soil to humidity-related concerns, we’ll focus on the unique challenges of our area.
- Home Maintenance & Safety Tips – Seasonal checklists, HVAC care, plumbing red flags, and safety guidance to help you maintain your home year-round.
- Realtor Support – Content that helps agents guide their clients and keep transactions smooth.
We’ll be posting a new blog every Monday morning, so you can start your week with fresh, practical advice.
Our Promise to You
We believe that content should be helpful first, promotional second. That’s why about 85% of our blogs are purely educational, while 15% or less will highlight our services at Palmer Inspections.
You’ll never find scare tactics, negativity, or complicated jargon here. Instead, we’ll give you information you can actually use — whether it’s a seasonal maintenance checklist or a deep dive into common East Texas home issues.
We’ll also keep things local. National advice is great, but homeowners in East Texas face unique weather, soil, and environmental conditions. That’s why our content is written with our community in mind.
