Home Inspections Troup Texas
Troup is a small railroad town on the line between Smith and Cherokee counties, just south of Whitehouse and about 20 miles from Tyler. It’s the kind of place where families buy a farmhouse on a few acres, a brick home near downtown, or land to build on and stay a long time. Today I’m proud to offer home inspections in Troup Texas for small-town homes, farmhouses and rural acreage.
Small-town homes have their own quirks, and I take the time to find them so you can buy with confidence.

What I look for during home inspections in Troup Texas
- Farmhouses and older homes. Many have been expanded and updated piece by piece over the decades. I check where old and new meet: rooflines, foundations, wiring and plumbing.
- Pier-and-beam crawlspaces. I look for rot, sagging floor framing, moisture and pest damage under the house.
- Wells and septic. Rural Troup properties often rely on both. I’ll note visible issues and tell you when to call a specialist.
- Roofs on country homes. Metal and shingle roofs both age differently in East Texas sun and storms. My drone gets a close look without walking a steep roof.
