KURT STEIN
Owner / President
Cell: 904.300.7753

Kurt Stein, Home Inspector, Founder, & CEO of HouseScan Inspections, earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Engineering from Penn State University. His knack for problem solving led him to Northeast Florida to pursue a career in engineering and operations working for several large manufacturers.

After purchasing several homes in Northeast Florida, Kurt’s exposure and interest in real estate expanded, and he soon recognized a significant opportunity for improvement in the historically monotonous and unchanged home inspection industry that could benefit home buyers and realtors alike. In 2017, with a slew of improvements in mind, HouseScan Inspections was born, and Kurt has never looked back. In just a few short years, Kurt has grown HouseScan to become the largest and highest-rated home inspection company in Northeast Florida. Every day he looks to improve his team, systems, and processes to continue delivering the “ultimate home inspection experience” to more and more customers in Northeast Florida.

In his spare time, you’ll find Kurt either on pickleball court, renovating properties, organizing charity Spikeball or Poker tournaments, and spending time with his beautiful wife, Stephanie, his daughter, Hampton, and his Australian Sheppard, Emma. Kurt’s other passions include traveling, art, personal finance & investing, property renovations, problem solving, and business building.
