Westlake, Florida residents Omar Garcia and Vanessa Choy-Montalvo are enjoying their new careers as franchisees of Pillar To Post Home Inspectors®. Team Garcia services the expansive county of Palm Beach. Omar and Vanessa bring a wealth of experience, and a strong skill set to their new role, ensuring the highest standards in home inspection services.
After spending several years in the banking industry Omar realized he was ready for a change. While he enjoyed the structured environment and trust-building aspects of his previous job, he sought greater independence and control over his career. The decision to transition to home inspection was not made lightly, but it was driven by a desire to leverage his skills in a new and impactful way.
The couple’s decision to join the Pillar To Post Home Inspectors network marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in their professional lives. With their backgrounds in banking, they bring a unique skill set that is perfectly suited to the demands of home inspections. Their commitment to detail, financial acumen, and customer service sets them apart in the industry.
Shared Omar, “In banking, attention to detail is paramount. Financial transactions, policies, and compliance requires meticulous scrutiny. This precision is equally crucial in-home inspections, where the ability to spot minor issues before they escalate into major problems is essential. Our banking backgrounds equip us with a keen eye for detail, ensuring that nothing is overlooked during inspections.”
Managing finances is a critical aspect of running a successful business. Omar’s experience in banking has endowed him with a deep understanding of budgeting, cash flow management, and financial planning. These skills are instrumental in maintaining the profitability and sustainability of their home inspection business.
In addition, continued Omar, “Building and maintaining long-term relationships with clients is at the heart of the banking industry. I have honed my ability to establish trust and rapport with clients, a skill that is equally vital in the home inspection business. Commitment to exceptional customer service will be a cornerstone of our business, fostering strong relationships with homeowners and buyers.”
In home inspection, Omar found an opportunity to apply his analytical mindset to help homeowners and buyers make informed decisions. The ability to provide valuable insights and ensure the integrity of a property aligns with his passion for meticulous work and customer service.
