Home inspections in Ponder, the growing small town west of Denton where rural properties and brand-new subdivisions along FM 156 are steadily changing the landscape.
Ponder is a small town in western Denton County along FM 156, surrounded by open farmland and ranch country. In recent years new subdivisions have brought many families to the area, drawn by Ponder ISD schools and a quieter pace of life within reach of both Denton and Fort Worth. Homes range from older farmhouses and rural properties to brand-new builds on freshly graded lots. Texas Inspection Services serves Ponder from Haslet, an easy drive north through Tarrant and Denton counties.
From start to finish, Anthony Ivory is your inspector. He is a Certified Master Inspector (CMI®), InterNACHI® Certified Professional Inspector and TREC-licensed Professional Inspector #24660, with 15 years of experience, and builders and buyers alike rely on his thorough, clear work. Inspections follow the TREC Standards of Practice, and you are welcome to attend and ask anything. Your report is delivered online through Spectora, with organized sections and photos that make it easy to share with your builder, lender or agent.
Much of Ponder’s new housing is going up quickly, and fast-paced construction is exactly when a phase inspection at pre-pour, framing or final can pay off. After move-in, an 11-month builder warranty inspection documents issues while the builder still covers them. For older rural homes, Anthony evaluates roofs that have taken hail, attics, HVAC systems working through summer heat, plumbing, electrical and foundations on expansive clay. Ponder buyers and builders can schedule by calling 817-829-6967.
