The inspector Frank came to our house to inspect the deck and provide a list of safety problems. While he was there we asked him to take a look at some termite damage in the attic.  When he went to the attic he spotted problems with a squirrel infestation requiring immediate action to correct for chewed wiring and unsanitary conditions.  We were unaware of this problem.  Frank provided a comprehensive inspection report in PDF format including multiple photos showing deck post deterioration, sagging joists and yes even a picture of the live squirrel in the attic. Frank is totally professional, knows his area of expertise very well and offers sound recommendations on how to correct problems without spending money for unnecessary improvements.  For example he told us the ledger board was in good shape and did not have to be replaced, only secured to the house wall with additional bolts. The small amount we paid for the inspection was well spent because the inspection will end up saving us money in the long run.

I would like to recommend Brandon for his excellent job during the inspection. He is very professional, thorough and is an expert in his field. I enjoyed his partnership during inspection, the knowledge he shared of the risks of certain issues was incredible. I am very glad that he inspected the house for us and wishing him more success in future.

Dustin was very knowledgeable and friendly and made my client feel confident in his explanations.  He was quick to point out the positives of the home he was inspecting.  His report was delivered within 18 hours of the inspection and had plenty of photos and very easy explanations in laymen's terms. I highly recommend Atlanta Property Inspections.

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.

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!

WOW! I can't even make this story up. In this very crazy market (June 2021) it seemingly takes 2 week closing (sometimes with *0* days due diligence!) to purchase a home. Anyway, Frank came recommended by another very reputable inspector, and I was fortunate he came!! The home we were looking at for my mother was a 1975 build and within 1 hour of the inspector being there a FIRE from an electrical panel broke out! Frank contained the fire, and was SO calm, had his team address the matter, was in touch with the agent and homeowner. He said in over 20+ years of him inspecting homes nothing like this had ever happened. Anyway the inspection was VERY thorough and Frank handled all matters very professionally. We will be working with Frank and his team on any home inspections in the future. I highly recommend!

The inspector was really thorough and was patient in explaining to me what he was observing. He showed me where the shutoff valve was for the water and gave recommendations on various things. The report that was provided made sense and pictures were taken of some things that were found. The inspector was also very personable which put me at ease about asking questions. Thank you, Alex and Atlanta Property Inspections!

Can a Home Inspection Save You Money? Absolutely-Here’s How

Homeownership is a rewarding and fulfilling achievement. If you are looking to buy a home, working with a reputable home inspection company in Atlanta, GA is wise. That’s where Atlanta Property Inspections comes in to ensure you properly perform your due diligence. Our licensed and certified home inspectors leverage extensive expertise to thoroughly assess a new home construction or a condo, giving you peace of mind when you decide to buy. Although professional home inspection services come at a cost, the long-term benefits and potential cost savings make it a worthwhile investment. Here’s how your home inspector can put money back into your pocket.

Identify Major Issues

As a prospective homebuyer, the most important way to save money is by learning the major hidden issues. Even if a property is visually attractive, a home inspector can identify minor signs of deterioration that may not be obvious to untrained eyes. Hairline cracks on your walls and foundation, or faulty wiring, can worsen over time and cause costly damage. With that said, investing in a comprehensive assessment gives you peace of mind knowing everything is in top shape.

Find Previously Undetected Issues

Property sellers often disclose current issues with the property to prospective buyers as a sign of transparency. While honesty is appreciated, hiring a home inspector can help identify previously undetected problems the owner did not disclose. Whether unintentionally or intentionally, you don’t have to worry about the stress of emergency repairs down the line. The last thing you want is a failing HVAC or electrical wiring issues when you move in.

Building Leverage in Negotiations

One of the most critical stages for both the buyer and seller is negotiation. For first-time buyers, building leverage is crucial when venturing into the housing market. Studies show that the median home price is 26% higher from 5 years ago. This means that a thorough home inspection can give you the upper hand when it comes to getting a lower selling price. Minor issues may not change the price much, but significant problems can drive the cost down. Alternatively, you can pay the asking price and ask the seller to cover the maintenance fee.

Budgeting for Repairs

If the seller is not willing to cover all the repairs, you will need to get started on the work once you own the home. Licensed home inspectors have many years of experience dealing with repairs, helping you focus on the right areas from the start. In addition, a professional home inspection provides pertinent information to help you budget for repairs. Nothing is more frustrating than assuming home improvement projects will be cheaper only to spend a fortune.

Reduce Home Insurance Costs

Home insurance is essential when you buy a house. Every state is different, but it is not mandatory to purchase it. However, lenders will require you to have the proper coverage if something happens. With that said, your home inspection company can be incredibly useful in reducing your insurance costs. Home insurance providers want to see details from your inspection to determine your rate. A good report can give you a sizeable discount on your premiums.

Ensuring Building Code Compliance

Are you buying an older home? Existing houses exude character and charm, which makes them a valuable investment. However, they can pose serious financial risks if the current owner doesn’t keep up with maintenance or adhere to local building codes. A trusted home inspection company can identify violations you need to rectify, preventing costly fines and even legal action.

When investing in real estate, the costs can add up quickly.  At Atlanta Inspection Properties, we can help you account for the down payment, title insurance, appraisal, and other closing costs.
