About Brian
Brian Puffenberger founded Coast Line Home Inspections on one simple premise: a home inspector should be able to tell you exactly what a problem is, what caused it, and what it costs to fix it.
With over 15 years in construction and a real estate background since 2011, Brian brings something most inspectors simply can't offer — he's actually done the work. He's installed the joists, replaced the subfloor, set the headers. When he walks through a property, he sees it the way a builder does.
That difference shows up in every report, every conversation, and every client that calls him back for their next deal.
