About Me
The only girl growing up in a sea of four brothers, our owner and Inspector in Chief, Kari “Rosie” Cheek, has been a tough cookie her entire life. A homeschooled, Methodist pastor’s daughter, she received her B.A. degree in English from the University of Kentucky in 2008, after which she ventured out into the world of building and rehabbing houses through AmeriCorps NCCC, serving people through non-profits throughout the southern region of the United States. Upon going through the process of purchasing her first home (a real fixer upper!), she was inspired to study up and pursue a career as a Home Inspector, having always been something of a building science geek. After obtaining her KY Home Inspector’s license and establishing Rosie Home Inspections in 2014, Kari has made it her goal to go above and beyond for each of her clients, providing them with an extensive array of information about their prospective home, and making sure they understood each deficiency and its implication in a photo based format. Over the years, Kari has dedicated herself to the study of building science, adding an arsenal of knowledge and certifications to better serve her clients, including radon and mold testing, WDI (wood destroying insect) identification, and commercial property analysis.

Reviewed on March 29, 2026Thorough, well explained inspection. Very helpful to have other options available beyond just the general inspection, as well.

Reviewed on March 23, 2026Kari Cheek from Rosie Home Inspections did an excellent job on our home inspection. She was very thorough, professional, and detail-oriented throughout the entire process. The inspection report was clear, well organized, and included informative photos and explanations of the issues observed in the home. What I appreciated most was the level of care and attention given to both major concerns and smaller maintenance items. The report helped us better understand the condition of the property and made it much easier to evaluate possible repair needs and future costs. I would definitely recommend Kari Cheek and Rosie Home Inspections to anyone looking for a careful and reliable home inspector.
