What to expect

I start with your question and the palm in front of me.

Tell me what you noticed, what has been done recently, and what you need to decide.

At the property

I examine what can be seen safely from the ground and take the photographs the question requires.

After the visit

I explain what I observed, what remains uncertain, and what I recommend next.

If another professional is needed

I keep the handoff focused on the facts and photographs already gathered.
