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, 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.

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!

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!

This was my first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections. Alex Sozonov was my inspector. Very oriented details and willing to explained all questions with professional knowledge. Report came into my email box late night. Clearly, it has been covered all details. Plus, show up on time.

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.

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!

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!

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.
