About Us
Home inspections by someone who truly understands construction.
Snow Home Inspections was founded by Greg Snow, an American professional with over 30 years in construction, to fill a gap in the Northern Portugal market: independent, rigorous inspections explained in plain language.
For decades, Greg worked as a superintendent and project manager in California, on construction and renovation projects worth up to $10 million — public schools, telecom central offices and commercial fit-outs. A certified carpenter through the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and OSHA safety trained, he knows a building from the foundation to the finish.
We see too many foreign buyers close a deal without understanding the real condition of the house. Damp, mould, structural issues and old electrical wiring only show up later — and they cost a lot.
Our mission is simple: give you the facts before you sign, in English or Portuguese, so you can decide with confidence.
Our values
Independence
We work only for the buyer.
Transparency
Clear prices and reports, no fine print.
Rigour
We inspect every home as if it were our own.
