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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

Thorough knowledge of items addressed in report. Home inspector was able to communicate any issues found with buyer and help explain the different items and their severity.

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!

What Sets Apart a Great Home Inspection Company

When shopping for a new home, most buyers focus on the obvious: Is the flooring wood, stone, or carpet? Do the countertops sparkle like the ones in a model home? Does the backyard slope in a way that will send every rainstorm rushing toward the foundation? These are all fair questions, but they only scratch the surface.

Beneath and beyond the paint, trim, and landscaping lies the real story of a home’s condition. And that’s a story best told by a trained professional. In fact, this is why lenders typically require a professional home inspection before finalizing a loan. But here’s the tricky part: there are inspection companies that go through the motions and those that bring true expertise and reassurance.

So, what sets apart a great home inspection company in Atlanta? This article addresses exactly that.

Depth of Knowledge and Certification

A top-tier inspector isn’t just someone who can spot a leaky faucet. They’re trained to understand systems from the ground up: electrical wiring, HVAC performance, roofing materials, grading, plumbing, insulation, and beyond. Once they've got everything down, they prove themselves and get certified.

The gold standard is certification through professional organizations such as the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI). This credential signals that the inspector has undergone rigorous training, adheres to a code of ethics, and is committed to continuing education in a constantly evolving industry.

When choosing an inspector, always ask if they are certified, and by whom. It’s reassurance that the person combing through your potential new home knows what to look for and how to explain it in plain English.

Clear and Actionable Reporting

Even the sharpest inspector is little help if their findings are buried in a confusing or overly technical document. Great home inspectors deliver more than just a checklist; they provide a detailed, organized, AND easy-to-understand report that explains what’s working, what needs attention now, and what could become a problem in the future.

Communication and Professionalism

More generally, a great inspector understands that buying a home can be nerve-wracking and makes an effort to communicate professionally. They'll take time to walk the buyer through the findings, answer questions without jargon, provide context for their observations, and remain patient and approachable throughout.

Professionalism also extends to punctuality, appearance, and respect for the property. You’re trusting this person to comb through every corner of a house you might call home - so it matters that they treat the process, and your time, with respect.

Tools and Technology

While experience and expertise are important factors, the right tools elevate an inspection. Things like moisture meters, infrared cameras, and drones for roof inspections aren’t gimmicks; they're valuable in helping inspectors uncover hidden issues. A company that invests in modern equipment is demonstrating a commitment to thoroughness and accuracy.

Local Experience

Atlanta’s homes are as diverse as its neighborhoods and people. Whether it's the historic bungalows in Grant Park, the sleek Midtown condos, or the sprawling suburban builds in Alpharetta, every type of property presents its own inspection challenges.

A local home inspection company with decades of experience in the Atlanta area will have seen it all - and will know what common problems to look for in each style of home.

Plus, they'll be familiar with local building codes and regulations.
