Tennessee's oldest town is our hometown. From historic homes near Main Street to new neighborhoods on the edge of town, Brian Tankersley inspects Jonesborough homes with care.
Founded in 1779, Jonesborough is Tennessee's oldest town, and its brick sidewalks, historic Main Street, and the International Storytelling Center make it one of the most charming places in the state. Every fall, the National Storytelling Festival brings visitors from around the country. Beyond the historic district, Jonesborough has grown into a popular place to live, with established neighborhoods, newer subdivisions, and country properties throughout Washington County. Jonesborough is also home base for Certified Home Inspection LLC, owned and operated by Brian Tankersley, State of Tennessee Certified Real Estate Inspector (License #1277).
Jonesborough's historic homes are a big part of its appeal, but older homes often carry original wiring, aging plumbing, additions from several eras, and foundations and crawl spaces that deserve a careful look. Newer homes have their own concerns, from builder defects to grading and drainage on sloped lots. Brian inspects every home top to bottom, explains what he finds in plain language, and delivers a detailed report with photos the same day.
Because radon is found in homes across East Tennessee, radon testing is one of the most valuable additions to a Jonesborough inspection. And since Brian is local, scheduling is easy and free consultations are always available. Call or text Brian at 423-360-7203 to schedule your Jonesborough home inspection.
