Although Preston owns one of the largest multi-inspector home inspection firms in the country; Home Inspection Carolina, he is only the boss at work. That is because at home Preston has a beautiful wife and two beautiful daughters, a dog, some fish and a hermit crab. As you can imagine he is way down the food chain there. Preston also owns to other home inspection related businesses; Home Inspection Flyers and Inspect New Homes. He has master’s degree in Education and a bachelor’s degree in Finance both from the University of North Carolina in Greensboro.

You Preston is successful by the process of elimination and if you listen to him maybe he can shorten your learning curve.
