He looked at everything in great detail, his home inspection report was very detailed and showed what was missing, what needed to be replaced, and what was a potential hazard to my health in the home. He had cheap ideas for fixing minor issues rather than paying someone a ton of money to fix it. He also did a great job of explaining what things were and how they malfunctioned. He did a really great job.

A Professional Home Inspector Who Knows Van Alstyne
Van Alstyne still feels like a small town, with its brick storefronts along Main Street and the old railroad depot near the town square, but growth has arrived fast. Neighborhoods like Waterleaf and other new subdivisions off US-75 have brought hundreds of new homes to a community that was mostly farmland a decade ago. From historic downtown storefronts to the new rooftops rising along US-75 near the Grayson-Collin county line, our team has inspected homes across every corner of town.
Henderson Home Inspection works with buyers moving into these new developments as well as families purchasing older homes closer to downtown. Whether the property was built last year or fifty years ago, our team provides a residential home inspection built around what's actually happening at that address, not a generic checklist.
We serve buyers, sellers, and builders throughout Van Alstyne, and our reports are written so anyone, first-time buyer or seasoned investor, can understand exactly what we found.

What Van Alstyne Buyers Should Know Before Closing
Van Alstyne sits across the Grayson and Collin county line, which means soil conditions, drainage, and building codes can vary depending on which side of town a property sits. Homes near the older sections of town often have different foundation and plumbing histories than the new builds going up off US-75. Understanding these differences helps us tailor every inspection to the specific property, whether it's a decades-old farmhouse or a brand new build.
Here are a few things we watch closely on inspections in this area:
- Clay-heavy soil common in this part of North Texas, which can shift foundations over time
- Older homes near downtown with original plumbing, electrical panels, or roofing that may need updates
- New construction homes in developments like Waterleaf that still need a careful pre-drywall or final inspection
- Drainage patterns around newer lots where grading is still settling
- HVAC systems sized for older homes that may struggle to keep up during Texas summers
- Well and septic systems on larger lots outside the city limits

Larry Martin
Jim Henderson is the best! So thorough and precise! He always does such a great job and my clients are always very well informed as to the condition of the property they are purchasing. Ginger Weeks RE/MAX DFW Associates Realtor
Ginger WWe were so impressed, even the builder said that he had never seen an inspection that was so thorough, referring to the number of pages in the provided inspection report. It's a new home, and we are so glad we hired Henderson. He took photos of everything and if there was an issue it was highlighted in yellow or red. There were a few little things that we had not noticed. Jim walked us around after he had finished his inspection, so we were able to see everything in the report, he made great recommendations and observations. Very professional. Thank you, Jim!
