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 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.

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

Should You Attend Your Home Inspection? Here Are the Pros and Cons

Buying a new property is undoubtedly one of the biggest decisions a person can make in their lives. It’s not comparable to any other life event, and while the process itself can be very exciting, it also comes with lots of responsibilities and considerations. As a future homeowner, you have to make sure that the house you’re considering fits into the criteria you have for your ideal future home, at least for the most part. This particular concern can only be overcome by a professional home inspection. Buyers frequently wonder if they should go to the house inspection in person. Attending is optional, although it can provide insightful information. By being aware of the advantages and disadvantages, you can decide whether to go to the inspection or not. Let’s discover some of them.

Understanding The Way The House Operates

You have the chance to learn about the systems of your future home by attending the home inspection. Inspections tend to include all parts of the house, from plumbing to electricity to the basement. To the untrained eye, the house’s condition can only be predicted from what you can see. On the other hand, systems behind the walls are observed and assessed by the inspector, and in real time you can observe what they’re taking into consideration and get a better understanding of the important parts.

Determine Key Problems on-Site

If during the process, a significant problem is discovered, the inspector can let you know about that problem in real time, and they can explain the severity of the issue as it might influence your decision on buying the property. This way, you don’t have to wait for the report, in which you may not even clearly understand what the inspector is referring to. This makes the entire process much easier for you.

Cons

As for the cons of the inspection, it’s important to mention that home inspectors are trained in a way to spot and take notes of any possible problem, no matter how minor they are. As professionals, they will know if the issue is important or not, but a new future homebuyer may not understand if all the findings are important and have a hard time. As a result, they may believe that there are too many problems with the house and even opt to dismiss the house, which is a false approach. The second issue is that even though many home inspectors are completely fine with answering any questions you may have during the process, if there are too many of those anxious questions, inspectors may not do their job effectively.
 

Your Biggest Investment

In conclusion, attending at least the important parts of your home inspection is usually advantageous for you, as it enables you to ask questions you may have and obtain the perspective of a professional that inspects hundreds of homes. Through working with a reputable home inspection company like Atlanta Property Inspections, you can have peace of mind knowing that you’re in the good hands of professionals that will provide you with the most accurate report even if you decide not to show up. You can always contact us for any questions or concerns you may have regarding the process. If you’re a future homebuyer and are in need of professional help, we are more than happy to accompany you on this journey. Call us today and schedule your appointment.
