Who We Are and What We Stand For...

Our History

Tom Gillespie started Gillespie Home Inspection, now Insight Home Services, in 1993.  Since then, we have inspected thousands of condominiums, townhomes, mobile homes, single family homes, apartment units and commercial properties in the Bay Area.  His responsiveness, attention to detail and professionalism has made Insight a favorite among real estate professionals servicing this affluent community.

Insight has played an important role in helping tens of thousands of home buyers and sellers gain the knowledge and confidence they need to make an informed decision on one of life's biggest investments.

In 2004, Kim Herrera took over the business to take Insight to the next level.  Kim brings extensive operations, management and marketing expertise, having worked in several entrepreneurial ventures and well-known civil engineering firms in San Jose.  With Kim's guidance, we have expanded our service area, multiplied our service offerings and enhanced our client base.  And we received our Diamond Certification in December of 2007.

We currently contract with two full-time inspectors to keep up with demand.  We're looking for more qualified inspectors as we continue our expansion.  But rest assured, that no matter how much we grow, Insight will always maintain its commitment to provide you with the best possible information about the property you own, are purchasing, or in which you are involved.
