Understanding homes in Lakewood
Washington’s April 1, 2026 estimates count 27,813 housing units in Lakewood. The larger of the two main structure categories is one-unit homes. That mix helps frame inspection questions; it does not establish the condition of a particular home.
| Housing category | Units |
|---|---|
| Total housing units | 27,813 |
| One-unit housing units | 13,778 |
| Units in structures with two or more units | 12,510 |
| Mobile homes and specials (OFM category) | 1,525 |

Choose the inspection for your property.
- Single-family home: discuss the roof, attic, foundation, accessible crawl space, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, and interior systems within the agreed scope.
- Condo or townhome: confirm which components belong to the unit and which are maintained by an association. Ask for association records and confirm access.
- New construction: coordinate an independent condition assessment around completion and closing. New finishes do not replace an inspection.
- Manufactured home: identify the home type and additions so the scope and access can be discussed before the visit.
Before your Lakewood inspection.
- Gather listing details, seller disclosures, the building’s approximate age, and available repair or permit records.
- Tell us about additions, converted spaces, past water entry, roof repairs, and specific systems you want to understand.
- Arrange safe access to the property and accessible attic and crawl-space entries. Confirm utilities and access restrictions with the seller.
- Share your contingency and closing dates. Home inspection reports are delivered within 24 hours; laboratory services follow a separate timeline.
Lakewood home inspection questions
Do you inspect homes in Lakewood?
Yes. Golden Eye serves Lakewood and the surrounding Greater Puget Sound area. Call with the address and deadline to confirm availability and scope.
How much is a home inspection in Lakewood?
Call (234) 201-0505 for a quote based on property size, type, and services needed.
Does the inspection include sewer or water testing?
Those are separate services. Discuss sewer scopes, well inspections, water sampling, mold air testing, or asbestos sampling when arranging the appointment.
Does an older home automatically have more problems?
Age alone does not establish condition. Maintenance, repairs, alterations, materials, and accessible systems matter. We assess the property rather than assigning defects based on neighborhood or age.
