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.

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.

Atlanta Property Inspections came to do a pre-purchasing inspection on a home my husband and  I plan to buy! We had a very short due diligence period, but that was no issue for these guys. They fit us in their schedule on very short notice and were such a pleasure to work with. Cary and Riley came to do the inspection and did a fantastic job walking us through the inspection to let us know what they found, and suggestions on how to fix all of the issues! Shout out to Cary, for answering all of our questions and having such a great personality! We truly appreciate you guys taking the time to help us through such a very stressful time. We HIGHLY recommend this company!

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!

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!

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!

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.

What’s Behind the Decline of Affordable Housing in the U.S.?

The United States is facing an affordable housing crisis, affecting millions of Americans nationwide. With rising home prices and limited housing supply, many people's dream of homeownership is slipping away. This article will discover three key reasons affordable housing is declining and how homeowners can take precautions against this. If you want to learn more, contact Atlanta Property Inspections today.

What are the leading causes of the disappearance of affordable houses in the U.S.?

There is a rapid decline in affordable housing in the United States, which stems from many factors. The main reason is that developers are mainly focused on higher profit margins, leading them to build more luxury housing rather than housing for low and middle-income families. With the rise in demand in urban areas, wage stagnations, zoning laws, and construction costs, potential buyers are limited to the current supply in the market. So, potential buyers now have to work within tight budgets and ensure that they buy the house that will cause the least problems for them in the future.

Aging Homes in Low-Cost Housing

Many of the affordable houses mentioned above are aging and deferred from maintenance. Due to their age and lack of attention, these houses have many hidden issues, including problems with the electrical and plumbing system, pest infestations, and even structural weaknesses. All these factors result in potential buyers looking at better but more expensive options, which the developers focus even more on.

How Investor Purchases Change the Housing Market

There is also the factor of private equity firms and large real estate investors. These firms and individuals have increasingly bought affordable homes to convert them into rental units. This has resulted in prices driving up as the demand is increasing. This has resulted in bidding wars where homeowners want to acquire the affordable housing these firms want to turn rental units to. Despite the bidding wars, many skip the crucial step of home inspections.

The Importance of Home Inspections in this Housing Crisis

Affordable housing is becoming harder and harder to find. Homeowners looking for affordable housing must take fast steps but with caution. Home inspection in Alpharetta helps buyers assess whether an affordable house has any disguised problems. They allow homeowners to understand the house's condition and whether a home is affordable when factoring in needed repairs. It is no longer considered a luxury but a necessity. If you want to learn whether your potential new home meets the basic safety and quality standards in this rising, volatile market, call Atlanta Property Inspections today.
