Buying or selling an Eichler requires a different inspection mindset. These mid-century modern homes are loved for their flat or low-slope roofs, radiant-heated slabs, post-and-beam construction, glass walls, atriums, clerestory windows, and indoor-outdoor flow — but those same features require specialized due diligence. A standard inspection is important, but Eichler buyers and sellers also need to understand roof history, radiant heat condition, drainage, slab issues, termites, electrical upgrades, permits, remodel quality, insurance-sensitive details, and architectural integrity. This guide explains what to inspect, what to document, and how the Boyenga Team at Compass helps clients move through Eichler escrow with clarity and confidence.
