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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Home Inspection vs. Appraisal: What’s the Difference

A home inspection and appraisal are two important services that homeowners can use whether they want to buy a property or sell their current one. Unfortunately, many homeowners aren’t aware of what each service is given for or the difference between these services. So, to help you understand the difference between a home inspection and an appraisal and learn more about the benefits they provide, we have prepared this guide for you. If you want to learn more, call Atlanta Property Inspection today.

What Is A Home Inspection?

A home inspection service provides homeowners with a report on the detailed condition of the house. This service is provided by professional inspectors who look through the condition of individual parts and systems of the home, which are crucial. These include looking at the condition of the plumbing system, electrical system, HVAC system, roof, ceilings, walls, floors, windows, and even doors. The report that the professional inspector gives can be a great guide on buying or selling your property or even fixing the parts that require a repair to enhance the longer lifespan of your home.

The list of benefits of a home inspection can go on and on. If you are looking to buy your home, this inspection will allow you to assess the general condition of the house and protect you from any repair or replacement services in the future. If you are looking to sell your property, you can use the report to increase the value of your house.

What is A Home Appraisal?

A home appraisal is a critical service given mainly to homeowners trying to apply for a mortgage or refinance their existing one. This service is a professional's unbiased opinion on how much the value of your current or dream house is worth. The extent of the service is very similar to that of a home inspection in Duluth. The professional looks at the general condition of the house, the home’s amenities, its visual appearance, square footage, location, and other features to report on how much the house roughly is worth, which is then given to the mortgage lenders. Lenders then use this report to ensure that they provide the roughly estimated value of the property and prevent the potential homeowner from overborrowing.

The benefits that a home appraisal provides are incredible. If you are looking to get a mortgage loan but don’t know where to start, getting a home appraisal will be a great way to unlock the doors that prevent you from getting it. In addition, understanding the current rough value of the house will allow you to catch up with the market, follow the trends, and sell the property for the same or higher value in the future.
