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.
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!
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!
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!
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!
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 have hired this company doing inspection on the property that I was planning to purchase in Georgia. I’ve live in California when this was done. Frank Cooper and his team did a great job of inspection and giving me with every details. I really appreciate the advice and the report. Thank you
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.
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.

Be an Active Participant in the House Hunting Process
When real estate agents, mortgage loan officers, and investors are negotiating terms and discussing the details, it’s easy to feel left behind by the process. The best way to ensure that you are getting exactly what you want is to remain part of the conversation from the very beginning. Make sure that you are clear about your expectations, and try not to let all the industry jargon being tossed around intimidate you. If you have any questions, ask them. If you’re worried about something, speak up. They have an obligation to make sure that you are aware of the condition of the home and that you know what you are getting before you commit.
There are a lot of factors to consider when purchasing a property. First, consider the average home price in the area. This could affect the long-term value and saleability of the house in the future. If you have a family, then the quality of the local school district and the location of nearby parks may weigh heavily in your decision. But, of course, the most important component of selecting the perfect home is the condition of the property itself. A few gallons of paint and new fixtures from Home Depot can make a house appear shiny and new on the surface. But, lurking underneath the drywall and floorboards could be a variety of health hazards and signs of damage. You need to be sure that the plumbing system, electrical wiring, HVAC unit, water heater, and other essential components are up to date and ready for action. Likewise, the presence of asbestos, lead paint, mold, and other hazards is a red flag.
While some issues can be spotted by potential buyers, the majority of problems usually lie hidden beneath the pretty decorative features. A professional home inspector will have the training, education, and hands-on experience required to notice the details that others would skip over. They will also provide you with a detailed report about the condition of key systems and structural components of the property so you can assess how much effort will be required to maintain the home after the sale is completed. Knowledge is power, and a quality inspection can give you the guidance you need to make the best decision.
Have you decided that hiring home inspectors is the right way to move forward? Then there’s no need to hesitate.
