Shelby Township, Michigan

Shelby Township has been one of Macomb County's fastest-growing communities for decades, with residential development pushing steadily northward into what was once farmland. The township offers buyers a broad range of options — from established 1980s and 1990s colonials in mature subdivisions to brand-new construction in the latest master-planned communities. It's a township where you can buy at almost every price point, and where inspection needs vary widely depending on the age and location of the property.

New construction in Shelby Township is a particularly important area for independent inspection. Buyers of newly built homes sometimes assume that builder oversight and municipal inspections provide adequate protection — but a builder's inspector works for the builder, not the buyer. Ryan Young has found significant deficiencies in brand-new homes in Shelby Township, from improperly installed roofing and flashing to missing fire blocking, drainage problems, and incomplete HVAC connections.

Established homes in Shelby Township's older subdivisions present more familiar concerns — roofing at or approaching end of life, HVAC systems needing replacement, deck ledger boards that were never properly flashed, and attic insulation gaps that have driven up utility bills for years. These are all documented clearly in Ryan's inspection reports with photos and recommendations for follow-up.
