At Champion Property Inspection, we believe strong teams build strong companies. Our recent company meeting gave us the opportunity to intentionally step away from the day to day and come together to celebrate progress, refocus on our goals, and talk through what is ahead. These meetings allow us to reflect on how we can improve, strengthen communication, and continue raising the standard for our clients and referral partners. For us, growth is not just about numbers but about clarity, accountability, and staying aligned in our vision so we can move forward together with purpose.
Company Culture
February Company Meeting
Our owner, Stephen Rager, generously spent hours preparing smoked plate ribs and pulled pork for the team, and it was outstanding. Just last month, he treated everyone to tomahawk steaks and brisket. What makes it meaningful is not just the food itself, but the time, effort, and intentionality behind it. Stephen creates opportunities for our team to slow down, enjoy a great meal together, and feel genuinely appreciated. Moments like this reflect the heart of our company culture.
Strategic Coach Conference
Growth doesn’t happen by accident — it happens by intention. At Champion Property Inspection, we believe leaders are lifelong learners. They continually develop new skill sets and sharpen their abilities to better serve and empower their people. A business will only grow as fast as the trust, capability, and alignment within its team.
That’s why we invest in more than individuals; we invest in our entire team. From books and seminars to conferences like Strategic Coach, we stay on the leading edge of professional and personal development. Our culture is built on the belief that our learning should always exceed our experience, because when our people grow, our company grows.
Lampion Center Chocolate Affair
The Lampion Chocolate Affair was a memorable evening filled with incredible desserts, local vendors, live entertainment, and meaningful connections throughout the community. The event brings people together to celebrate while supporting the important work of Lampion Center, which provides vital mental health and support services to children and families in our area.
We’re grateful to take part in events like this that blend fun with purpose. Investing in our community goes beyond the work we do every day — it’s about showing up, building relationships, and supporting organizations that make a lasting impact.
Horton Team Chili Cook-Off
Champion Property Inspection was proud to take part in the Horton Team’s Annual Chili Cook-Off, where our inspector Aaron Mauck earned 3rd place. Events like this are a fun way to connect with our community and support the people we’re grateful to work alongside.

InterNACHI 2025 with Owen Baumholser
We’re committed to staying on the cutting edge of the home inspection industry, and that means continuous learning and networking. This year, Owen and Stephen represented our team at the InterNACHI Conference 2025 in sunny Orlando, Florida. They dove into a range of topics, from the latest advancements in infrared technology to the use of drones in inspections. It wasn’t all classroom time, though! They also had the opportunity to connect with industry leaders, including Nick and Ben Gromicko, the founders of InterNACHI. While sessions like the one on fire door testing were invaluable (yes, we even made fire doors sound fun!), we believe in a balanced approach to professional development. Learn more about the InterNACHI Conference here:
The 4th Quarter meeting was filled with great content and awards for all our team members, from CCPIA for Noah to swag for our Certified Master Inspector Owen.
CCPIA Houston Conference
We invest in our team member, Noah Schnur our CPI, at the CCPIA conference in Houston, TX. In addition to learning about hotels, he gained a lot of knowledge about multiple commercial aspects. While there we had lots of good Texas BBQ and visited the NASA museum.
A big shout out to Cody with Oxbow Electric for spending the morning talking all things electrical with our inspectors. We appreciate your time and knowledge!
A few members of our team were happy to attend the Lumiere D’Education Foundation gala. Their mission is to provide free education to Haitian children and break the cycle of poverty. It was a wonderful event and Champion Property was proud to be a sponsor of this worthy cause!
The Team had a great time supporting people with disabilities at Jacob’s Village 12th annual Trivia Night. Although we didn’t take home the championship in overall Trivia, we could however answer any question pertaining to property inspections, wood destroying insects, radon numbers, building codes, and even some Star Wars movie quotes. We will stick to what we are good at!
We love supporting our local non-profits!
Check out our Fall Team Member of the Quarter of 2024, Aaron has been helping with radon duties, while studying to take the exam for licensing. Without his help we would have many long days and extra coordination to do! Thank you for all your hard work Aaron!
