Helping Buyers “Seale” the Deal

“We genuinely care about the people we work with and the process. We are not perfect, but I want people to know we're going to take care of you. People aren't just another transaction. We want every client to walk away feeling confident.”

— Joy Seale

In 2018, Aaron Seale transitioned out of the roofing business to become a home inspector. While he initially dipped his toes in the waters of inspecting homes, he quickly fell in love with the industry. 

“It fell into my lap, and it wasn’t anything I’d thought about previously,” Aaron reflects. “But once I started doing inspections, I realized I loved it.”

So what does Aaron love so much about inspecting? For him, it’s about the opportunity to serve.

“Home inspecting is really educational. I enjoy educating buyers on what they are getting into and what the home entails — especially first-time home buyers or people that are nervous. It's nice to be able to let them know what's going on and present it in a way where you can see their shoulders drop, and they can feel a bit more relaxed and confident. It also helps agents have a more calm buyer. And personally, I love working on a team.”

Seale-ing the Deal

Over the first four years of his home inspection career, Aaron worked as a solo inspector and for another local company. In 2022, he and his wife, Joy, founded Seale Home Inspections. The Seale Home Inspections team is now committed to serving their home buyers and REALTOR® partners.

“The biggest thing for agents is the verbal report at the end of the inspection. Our ability to get the information across to clients without freaking them out is huge. Obviously, we also hand them a list and a written report, but we explain everything well and clearly and educate them on what’s going on first,” Aaron offers.

The Seale Home Inspections team is rounded out by Joy, who manages the backend of the business, Operations Manager Alicia Rundell, and Inspector Michael Cotter.

“We call our employees magical unicorns because we've gotten really lucky,” Joy says proudly. “They are the best in the business.”

With two inspectors and a strong back office team, Seale Home Inspections is able to be available when REALTORS® and buyers need them. They can generally schedule inspections early in the inspection period and provide a written report before they drive off the property. They also offer ancillary services like sewer scopes and septic inspections. While they don’t provide termite inspections, they’ll coordinate the termite inspector to be on-site at the same time as the general home inspection. 

“If there is one thing I’d want people to know, it’s that we care,” Aaron says. “We’re fun, and we want inspection day to be an easy, relaxed experience.”

Founded in 2022, Seale Home Inspections is proud to provide residential and commercial inspections to northeast Oklahoma, including Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Sapulpa, Sand Springs, Skiatook, Owasso, Claremore, Catoosa, and the surrounding areas. The company’s Certified Professional Inspectors follow the InterNACHI Standards of Practice and the Home Inspector Code of Ethics.
