Jeremy was the best to work with! He was on time, very thorough in his explanations of his findings, and took time with my clients to make sure he answered all of their questions. He was detailed, and provided follow up when we needed additional questions answered. He went above and beyond! Best, quality, customer service I’ve seen in a long time! I’ll recommend him and Atlanta Property Inspections every time!
Atlanta Property Inspections came to do a pre-purchasing inspection on a home my husband and I plan to buy! We had a very short due diligence period, but that was no issue for these guys. They fit us in their schedule on very short notice and were such a pleasure to work with. Cary and Riley came to do the inspection and did a fantastic job walking us through the inspection to let us know what they found, and suggestions on how to fix all of the issues! Shout out to Cary, for answering all of our questions and having such a great personality! We truly appreciate you guys taking the time to help us through such a very stressful time. We HIGHLY recommend this company!
Dustin is VERY Detailed Oriented and found items and suggestions on the home that I would have never thought of, the report provided very good insight on how to move forward with the sale of the home! The staff at API was great to work with!
Frank Cooper and his team from Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc were excellent! They arrived on time and thoroughly inspected all areas of the property I was considering renting. They found things that needed to be repaired by the landlord before we signed the lease. Frank reviewed his findings with us. He explained all of his concerns, and he patiently answered all of our questions. Then the next day I received a very detailed report that included several pictures and detailed explanations. If you want a kind, knowledgeable, and thorough inspector, don’t hesitate to call Frank Cooper with Atlanta Property. I would highly recommend him! Truly a 5 star company!
I called several companies for quotes, and I felt that Atlanta Property Inspections was the most welcoming! Thereafter, I had a wonderful experience at the inspection. My inspector was thorough, kind, and willing to explain things and answer my questions on site. He was very knowledgeable and very friendly. I am glad I did not skip the inspection for this 950 square foot condo, and the review has been very helpful, during my due diligence period in evaluating this potential home.
We are relocating from out of state and we were in need of an inspection with a very tight turn around. We received incredibly thorough reporting and an availability to answer questions quickly. Cary Cooper’s professional and expert insight saved us from a potential health hazard. I would very much recommend Atlanta Property Inspection for any of your inspection needs!
Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. was referred to us by our realtor for our home inspection. Our inspector was Cary Cooper. He really took the time to answer all of our questions about his findings. We didn't feel rushed or that any question was too silly. He gave us peace of mind with a few of our concerns and was honest, even if we weren't to thrilled with the news. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely use (and refer) Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. in the future for any inspection needs.
I have hired this company doing inspection on the property that I was planning to purchase in Georgia. I’ve live in California when this was done. Frank Cooper and his team did a great job of inspection and giving me with every details. I really appreciate the advice and the report. Thank you
This was our first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections, Frank Cooper was the lead inspector and he was inspecting a new construction one bedroom plus den in Alpharetta for a buyer client of ours. The inspection report was both detailed and comprehensive. We have tried out a few premium home inspection companies over the past year, looking for a good additional inspection resource, and based on our experience with Frank Cooper, I think we have found it.
Have used Atlanta Property Inspections several times for my buyers. Their team is always very thorough and educational for the new home owners. Much information is shared about past/current codes, potential issues and how to have the issues repaired. I will continue to use Atlanta Property Inspectors for future inspections, and my clients have been very happy with their services as well!

When it comes to buying and settling into a new home, every step brings new excitements, especially if it’s your first home. In the midst of all that is going on, an important part of the moving process should not be skipped—home inspections. When it comes to home inspections in Alpharetta, GA, it’s important to understand that they’re not all the same. The term “builder warranty” seems to be used interchangeably with the home inspections, but that is not quite true. So, in this article, we will go over the main differences between the two types of inspections, trying to help you in determining which inspection is best for your needs.
First, it's important to define what each inspection means. A builder warranty is a guarantee given by the builder of the house implying that it will not have a set of defects and faults for a certain amount of time. Most of the time, they cover the major components of the house as well as the material. The builder warranties usually include a duration, which is determined by a number of factors about the house. Usually, one-year coverage for defects in materials and workmanship, including paint, drywall, and flooring. Two-year coverage includes main systems such as plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. Finally, ten-year coverage includes major structural deficiencies, including the foundation. Here are some of the important parts a building warranty covers:
By definition, a home inspection is an unbiased review that is conducted by a professional home inspector to determine a home's overall condition. Home inspections are usually done before a property is purchased, but they can also be done while you’re living inside your home just to see what kind of issues are present or before selling the home so any renovations can be included in the final price. In this inspection, the home inspector checks all critical components such as the foundation, electrical and plumbing system, HVAC, mold, etc. A home inspection is undoubtedly the most important step, especially before closing on your new home, because it is the ultimate unbiased and effective piece of document for making educated decisions and maximizing your investment. A home inspection can help you detect potential issues and get a better picture of the ongoing care that the property will need.
Even though a builder warranty carries the great advantage of offering coverage after move-in, it still does not replace the requirement for a home inspection. A home inspection detects problems early and warns you regarding the state of your home, but a builder warranty provides financial protection if specified defects develop after the home is occupied. To safely move into your brand new house, you should call the professional home inspectors of Atlanta Property Inspections. We are a home inspection company that is dedicated to bringing your home to its safest and most effective state. All you should do is call our professionals and schedule your appointment.
