Meet Your Inspector
The Engineering
Mindset.
I’m Lincoln Mertz, and I approach every home inspection with the technical rigor of my Mechanical Engineering background. Raised on a local farm in the Flint Hills, I learned early on that details matter and a strong work ethic is non-negotiable.
I’ve combined that foundational upbringing with my engineering education to provide a unique perspective on the local real estate market. I don’t just check boxes; I apply a lifelong mechanical mindset to analyze the complex systems that keep your home running.
Whether you are a first-time buyer or moving into your forever home, I provide the expert clarity you need to protect your family. I treat every evaluation with the same integrity I’ve practiced since growing up here in the Flint Hills, where I now serve families in Manhattan, Junction City, and Wamego.

The Advantage
I see the things others might miss.
Systems Analysis
A home is an interconnected machine. I evaluate how your HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems work together for efficiency and safety.
Structural Integrity
With an engineering background, I look past cosmetic flips to identify underlying foundation and framing issues that could cost thousands.
Actionable Insights
I don't just provide checklists; I provide homeowner education. You'll get the technical data you need to negotiate and a clear roadmap for your home’s future.
