Neil Saltzman
 E-mail: Neil@StructureTech1.com
Direct: 612-205-1919
Neil began his career in the construction field at the age of 16 when his father
secured a job for him on a commercial construction site. He
continued working in construction for the next 20 years,
taking time to get a B.S. in Forestry from the University of
Minnesota.
A fellow building remodeler thought Neil should expand
his interest into the housing inspection business and
encouraged him to listen to a tape on the inspection industry. “The inspection industry is a wonderful way to use your skills in finding problems with homes as well as giving mini-education classes to clients during the course of the inspection.”
After taking many building code classes and securing his
professional certifications, Neil began his career in home
inspections in 1990. In 1997, Neil purchased the
business Structure Tech, and since then he has developed an
organization that is well respected by the real estate and
home inspection community.
Besides his love of work, Neil spends time with his wife and four grown children whenever possible. He also enjoys weekends at the cabin fishing, water skiing, jet boating, hiking, 4-wheeling, and cross country skiing.

Duane Erickson

Direct:612-205-4374
In 1974, Duane and his father built his first house,
using permits and inspections. He did all of the work
at the house except for the exterior grading. He found
out that a good way to learn is to have the local building
inspector tell you it's not right!
Duane lives in Delano, and has become a
living legend in the western suburbs of the Twin Cities. If
you're buying a big house in the western suburbs and you
don't want any surprises, you call Duane. Duane has been
inspecting full time with Structure Tech since 1996, and has
earned himself a devout following of real estate agents and
clients. We get a lot of calls from customers that remember
Duane from their first home inspection in the '90s, and they
want to make sure he's still around to do the inspection on
their next house!
When not inspecting houses, Duane enjoys camping,
hunting, fishing, and 4-wheeling with family.
