New and Older properties

Parra Building Consultants (PBC) are experts in inspecting older/historic buildings. We have inspected many of the Gas Lamp commercial buildings for existing conditions as well as pre-purchase conditions for potential buyers. We are also long time members of San Diego Historical Society and Save Our Heritage Organization.

In California anyone can inspect your property. There are no licensing requirements what so ever. If you think this sounds dangerous, you're right.

It is up to you, the consumer, to educate yourself on what makes an inspector qualified to inspect your new home.

Dennis Parra, MCI and Dennis Parra II, MCI and the rest of the team have passed the test of time completing over 20,000 inspections. They are experienced, have advanced education and are active professional members in the following trade groups:
