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 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.

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!

Atlanta property inspections gave me a very competitor quote and stuck to it for final pricing. They were able to get someone out to do the inspection so quickly. Frank and James were very thorough and helpful during the process they encouraged me to look at what they found, the good and bad, so I knew exactly what I am buying.  I couldn't have asked for a better inspection experience!

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!

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.

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 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!

Home Inspection Checklist: What Buyers Should Never Overlook

Buying a new home is one of the most exciting experiences in a person’s life. After all, years of hard work and savings go into a house, and everyone wants to make sure that they make an investment in the right property. Therefore, as exciting as this process is, a lot of thought, effort, and careful consideration also go into it. If you’re doing this the first time around, you might easily get swayed by a property’s exteriors and make your decision majorly depending on this. Luckily, as home inspectors, we are here to help you make an informed decision. In this article, we will go over some of the things you shouldn’t overlook when you’re buying a house.

Foundational Issues

Eventually, it doesn’t matter if every other aspect of the house is doing really well; it ends with the state of the foundation. The foundation is the reason why the house is standing, and therefore even the most minor problem with it will have major consequences. Therefore, if the home inspector mentions problems regarding the foundation, you should never overlook it.

Water Damage

Water damage is one of the most disastrous events a house can go through; therefore, when you first get inside a house, always look for water damage signs like water stains or mold and mildew growth. Sometimes, these can escape the eye of first-time buyers, but home inspectors in Marietta will definitely notice them no matter how small. These small-looking issues actually indicate a more major underlying problem and cause health risks.

Old Electrical Components

Many people love the aesthetic of the older homes, especially the ones before the 1950s. As beautiful as they look, a lot of electrical wiring and fittings that were commonly used certainly aren’t used now. So, make sure to look at the electrical fittings and read the home inspector’s report on how new the wiring is. Some old electrical systems can increase the danger of a fire, and you may need rewiring throughout the entire house. Don’t overlook this issue because of aesthetic reasons.

Abnormally Great Prices

Even though being optimistic is a great trait, when buying a house, looking through a more realistic perspective is a better trait. As first-time buyers, you will sometimes come across houses that will have offers so incredible that you will want to jump at the first opportunity to buy them. However, proceed with caution. If a house’s price is suspiciously low and if the other homes in that area are commonly on sale, you should dig deeper into the cause of this with a professional. Always proceed with a thorough home inspection and other information about the neighborhood before moving to the next step.
