    Andy Lohman

    Andy was born and raised in Iowa. From a very young age he was always hands on and interested in taking things apart to see how they worked. In high school and college, he worked as a roofer, did residential construction and worked on a farm which included building confinement buildings and hog houses. He graduated Magna Cum Laude from St. Ambrose University with a Bachelor of Arts in Business and minor in Economics. After college he moved to Arizona and worked as a residential claims adjuster for 15 years adjusting claims and writing estimates for residential homes. It included working with engineers, architects and contractors to write estimates for repair.

    This is where a lot of construction knowledge was put to good use and a lot of new information was learned for home inspecting. Upon leaving the insurance industry as a property claims adjuster, he was specializing in total loss claims, managing independent adjusters and utilizing experts as a claims specialist and licensed in all states except Alaska. Always having a dream of owning his own business and the love for real estate lead him to his passion of home inspecting. He was mentored by a successful inspector for a year and then began Desert Home Inspectors, LLC. He currently lives in North Phoenix with his wife Jan and cat Simba. When not inspecting homes, Andy enjoys repairing or renovating things around the house, working on cars, traveling, wakeboarding, snowboarding and watching his wife compete in triathlons.

    Testimonials

    Dear Andy,
    I wanted to express my gratitude for all your assistance during the initial house inspection. You were very professional, fast, reliable and explained all your findings in detail and you were open for all of my questions.
    I was much more impressed with your professionalism and work ethic on the last-minute re-inspection request. You didn’t decline my request, you went the extra mile to help during this hectic time, and you
    did it with a big smile. Andy thank you for all your hard work and long hours under the sun. I sincerely appreciate all your professional help during this time making my life easier.
