OCHI is a family-owned company offering home inspections founded by Joel Maldonado, a professional home inspector with over 30 years of experience in building and construction. His background provides a deep understanding of how homes are built, how they fail, and the early signs of potential issues.
Joel works alongside his brother, Javier Quinones, bringing a personal, family-driven approach focused on honesty, thorough inspections, and peace of mind for every client.
We blend modern inspection technology with old-school attention to detail. Our tools include:
What sets Ochi apart is simple: integrity, communication, and education. Every client receives a clear understanding of their home’s condition. Joel walks you through every major system, answers questions, and ensures you leave informed and confident.
Buying a home is a big step — make sure it’s the right one. I provide the knowledge you need to move forward with clarity and confidence.
Comprehensive residential inspections evaluating structure, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, safety concerns, and maintenance issues to protect your investment.
A wind mitigation inspection identifies structural reinforcements and vulnerabilities, helping reduce insurance premiums and ensuring the home can withstand high winds and severe weather conditions.
A 4-point inspection evaluates the home’s HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and roofing systems to confirm safety, functionality, and compliance with insurance requirements for older or existing properties.
An 11th-month inspection documents defects or unfinished work before the builder’s warranty expires, ensuring timely repairs and protecting the homeowner’s investment from future complications.
A pool and spa inspection thoroughly reviews structure, equipment, and safety features, identifying functional, electrical, or maintenance concerns to keep the area safe, efficient, and enjoyable.
A multi-phase inspection of workmanship, structure, and systems. Includes foundation inspection (rebar and termite protection before slab pour), pre-drywall inspection, and final walkthrough to verify quality, safety, and builder compliance.
Pre-drywall inspections evaluate framing, structural integrity, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and fire safety components, ensuring proper installation, and early identification of issues before insulation and drywall conceal critical systems.
