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.

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.

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

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!

My client used the company for their home inspection during their due diligence period. Jeremy and his partner were very kind and accommodating with answering questions. The report was very thorough and I like that they also note positive things about the homes in their report as well and not just what's wrong with the house. You can read the good and the bad.

Dustin was absolutely amazing. He did such a thorough job and was super friendly and helpful in explaining everything to me as a first-time homeowner. Highly recommend this company! Very timely and professional throughout the entire process as well!

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.
