About Palm View
A veteran-owned inspection company built on clear answers
Quick answer
Who is Palm View Inspections?
Palm View Inspections is a veteran-owned Florida home inspection company serving the Gulf Coast and Central Florida. Palm View was founded to provide clients with clear, useful information and responsive support throughout the inspection process—not simply deliver a report. The company's approach emphasizes thorough visual inspections, straightforward findings, clear photographic documentation, timely reporting, and continued access to the inspector so clients can better understand the property and make informed decisions.

Damien Fosmoe is the owner and inspector of Palm View Inspections, a veteran-owned Florida small business. He is a Florida-licensed home inspector through the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation and a Certified Professional Inspector (CPI) through the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI).
During a 22-year career as a U.S. Army officer, Damien developed the ability to analyze complex information quickly, adapt to changing situations, remain methodical under pressure, and communicate important information clearly and concisely — skills he now brings to every home inspection. His military career also gave him extensive firsthand experience with the challenges of finding the right home: over those 22 years, he and his family lived in 13 different homes as both homeowners and renters.
After retiring from the Army, Damien served as an Assistant Professor and Chief of Curriculum Operations at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College. He holds a doctorate in Educational Leadership from Liberty University, reflecting his professional emphasis on analysis, education, and clear communication. Damien founded Palm View Inspections to provide clients with clear findings, practical information, and responsive support as they make important decisions about a home.
Palm View serves eight Gulf Coast and Central Florida counties.
Inspection philosophy
How we approach every home
- Context over alarm
- Every home has findings. Our job is to explain which ones matter to your decision, which are routine maintenance, and which need a specialist — without exaggeration.
- Documentation you can hand off
- Reports are organized so your agent, insurer, and contractors can each find what they need, with photos that show exactly what we saw.
- Florida first
- Our process is built around the things that damage Florida homes and drive Florida insurance decisions: water, wind, heat, and aging systems.
- Accountability
- The person who inspects your home is the person who answers your questions afterward.
