In 2009 after 30 years of building quality new homes and renovating old ones Mike Holley decided to change his focus. Instead of building homes he wanted to focus on inspecting them – on making sure that new and young home buyers got what they paid for and received no nasty surprises after making their purchase. Mike became a certified home inspector. He applied for and passed the necessary inspection certifications for the Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors (CAHPI) and the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors (OAHI) and subsequently “interned” with one of Ontario’s largest professional home inspector agencies. Around his 30 years of experience and his certifications he formed Holley Home Inspections.
