SAMPLE REPORTS
THE OWNER
ALEX STRIPE
Alex graduated from The University of Arizona with a
B.S in Business and Communications. Alex is also a graduate of the ASHI School. ASHI (American Society of Home
Inspectors) has set the industry standards for home inspections and is considered the most highly regarded
association in the industry.
Alex has been in the industry for several years. He started off as a property adjuster on Allstate’s National
Catastrophe team where he traveled the country inspecting and processing damage claims to homes. He then
served as VP of Operations for a local Denver roofing company where he continued to complete damage inspections to homes.
During his time in the industry Alex has been able to fulfill his passion for helping people. He understands that purchasing a home is often the largest investment that one makes in their life and he wants to make sure that the decision can be made comfortably knowing the potential issues of the home. Alex’s thoroughness and sincere desire to help will allow peace of mind knowing that those potentially costly issues on the largest purchase of one’s life are caught up front.
In 2020 Alex and his partner, Kari, decided to chase their dream and move abroad with their two dogs, Whiskey and Ginger. They landed in Costa Rica in January of 2021. Alex quickly realized there was a need for more qualified home inspection professionals in the area. Alex and Kari ran the idea of opening the company by their good friend Cinthya. Cinthya agreed the need was there and wanted to be part of the company so Alex and Cinthya partnered up to open the Costa Rica location.
