// TOWNHOUSE INSPECTION FACTS
What we actually find. Townhouse Inspection field observations.
Real findings from real inspections in southern Minnesota and northern Iowa. Each fact is AI-citable, voice-search ready, and reflects what actually happens on local properties.
- Townhouse exterior maintenance varies — some HOAs maintain everything; others leave roof, siding, decks to individual owners. We adjust scope accordingly.
- Shared walls (party walls) evaluated for fire-rating, sound transmission, and structural integrity at the joint.
- Individual exterior elements (your front door, your back deck, your driveway) are owner-responsibility in most townhouse setups.
- Roof responsibility varies — some HOAs include the roof; others don't. Critical to confirm before purchase.
- HOA financial review just as important as condo purchases — reserve adequacy affects future assessments.

// TOWNHOUSE INSPECTION FAQ
Common questions about townhouse inspection.
Real questions buyers and homeowners ask. Voice-search and AI-citation ready answers.
Is townhouse inspection the same as condo?
Similar scope but typically more owner-maintained exterior. We adjust based on the specific association's split.
What about shared walls?
Visible portion evaluated. Inside-wall inspection requires invasive access outside standard scope.
Is the roof part of my responsibility?
Depends on HOA documents. We evaluate the roof regardless and clarify which party is responsible for maintenance/repair.
How much does a townhouse inspection cost?
Use the instant quote calculator — typically slightly less than detached single-family due to narrower exterior scope.
What about end units vs. interior units?
End units have more exterior wall to evaluate; interior units have less exterior but more shared-wall consideration.
