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.

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!

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!

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.

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!

What Your Home Inspector Wishes You Knew Before the Appointment

The most important aspect of real estate transactions is hiring a reputable home inspection company in Atlanta, GA. With this in mind, Atlanta Property Inspections is committed to providing thorough inspections and detailed reports to clients. Whether you are selling or buying a property, you can count on the extensive expertise of our home inspectors to help you navigate the process seamlessly. With many years of experience, we have identified things that most people do and end up hurting themselves in the process. Let’s delve into the crucial things your home inspector wishes you knew to get the most out of your investment.

Not Every Home Inspection Company Is the Same

The most common assumption when people shop around for home inspection services is that every inspector is the same. However, the reality is that inspection companies vary, and choosing the right one is crucial to getting a higher return on investment. Before signing off on any work, check the experience level, skills, and reports of prospective companies to help you narrow down the most suitable service provider. Additionally, don’t choose the cheapest inspector, even if you want your money’s worth. The last thing you want is to incur more expenses in the long run for hiring a budget-friendly service provider.

Home Inspectors Need More Time

When it comes to real estate transactions, everything seems to be under a time crunch. However, this doesn’t mean you have to rush the home inspection. Most people like to put a timeline on inspections based on their work or personal schedule. The reality is that inspections take time, and most home inspectors don’t know how long until they get into the evaluation itself. By putting a limit on your home inspection, you risk underlying issues going undetected and causing costly problems down the line.

Not Every Seller Is Honest

While most sellers are honest and genuine, there are a few sellers who may try to hide things. Knowing this, familiarizing yourself with all the tricks and ways sellers hide defects can give you an added advantage. A professional and seasoned home inspection company has experienced nearly every scenario in real estate transactions, helping you identify defects that often remain concealed. If you are looking to invest in real estate and get your money’s worth, hire a trusted home inspector and ensure they have enough time to thoroughly check every nook and cranny.

Move Pets for the Day

Home inspectors are not against having furry friends, but sometimes these animals can interfere with the inspection process. A zealous dog or a curious cat is fun to be around, but when it comes to home inspections, they can pose a risk to everyone on the premises. Not to mention, some pets have issues with strangers in the house, posing safety risks to your inspector. Before the actual inspection date, ask a friend to watch over your pet or board them for a few hours, if possible. This will allow the process to run smoothly and faster.

Don’t Blame the Messenger

A professional and highly trained home inspector can identify things you didn’t even know existed. While no one wants a bad result, a report that shows major defects doesn’t have to affect the sale. In some cases, such reports make great negotiating tools, ensuring both parties are satisfied. It's crucial to note that a home inspection is not biased, as it aims to provide a detailed account of what’s there. A home inspection company is required to give an honest account as part of the industry code of ethics.

Home inspection is a crucial part of the real estate industry, and Atlanta Property Inspections can help you get a better idea of the property’s condition. Contact us today and book an appointment with our experts to enjoy more accurate and beneficial results.
