Hope Home Inspections Mascot

Harry Hope may not be a real person, but he’s very much a part of the Hope Home Inspections family. As our beloved mascot, Harry brings a little personality and a lot of spirit to everything we do. You’ll find him riding along with our inspectors to every inspection, proudly perched on the back of our work trucks—keeping watch and making sure the job gets done right (with a smile, of course).

Harry isn’t just along for the ride—he’s also the face of our online presence. You’ll spot him front and center on our Facebook, Pinterest, and YouTube pages, where he shares helpful tips, fun updates, team highlights, and the occasional coupon or promotion. Whether he’s reminding you about hurricane season prep or just bringing some humor to your feed, Harry keeps things light while staying connected to what matters most: supporting our clients and real estate partners every step of the way.

Be sure to follow Harry’s adventures across social media—you never know where he’ll show up next!!

Founders

Theresa

Theresa was raised in the Sarasota-Bradenton area and brings a well-rounded background in real estate, business management, and information technology. Her career path led her into the real estate industry, where she gained firsthand insight into the many challenges homebuyers, sellers, and agents face throughout a transaction. It was during this time that she identified a clear gap in the market. There was a true need for professional, detail-oriented home inspectors who not only understood the structure of a home but also the stress and emotion tied to the process.

Motivated to bridge that gap, Theresa co-founded Hope Home Inspections with a mission to deliver service rooted in trust, clear communication, and consistent quality. Under her leadership, the company has grown into one of the most respected inspection firms in the region, known for its client-focused approach, thorough reporting, and reliable results. After years of dedication and success, Theresa has stepped away from her role at HHI and is exploring new opportunities and adventures. While she remains proud of the company she helped build, she’s looking forward to new challenges, more time with family, and the freedom to pursue passions that inspire her next chapter.

Robert

Robert has been a proud resident of Sarasota for many years, bringing with him decades of experience in real estate design, development, and renovation. Originally from London, he moved to the United States in 1982 and quickly established a reputation for his deep knowledge of homes and strong work ethic.

With a shared vision for raising the standard in the home inspection industry, Robert co-founded Hope Home Inspections alongside Theresa. Drawing on his construction background, attention to detail, and practical insight, he helped shape the company’s inspection process from the ground up. As Lead Inspector and a licensed mold assessor, Robert has played an essential role in establishing HHI as a trusted name throughout the region. He’s also committed to supporting the next generation of inspectors and ensuring every client receives clear, honest, and thorough information about their home.

Outside of work, Robert proudly holds the titles of Captain and Grandpa. He enjoys fishing, boating, and spending time on the water. The company has grown and flourished over the years, and he does not see this slowing down anytime soon.
