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 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.

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

Why You Should Always Read A Home Inspection Agreement

A lot of people see contracts as something to get over, and without even taking the time to read them most of the time, we tend to sign them. However, contracts are very important documents that serve as a record of commitments to something for both parties and prevent further risks and potential conflicts. In almost every major decision we take, contracts are the backbone. So, even if you are a person who doesn’t necessarily read contracts or agreements before signing, there is one you should always read: home inspection agreements. In this article, we’ll go over the importance of reading home inspection agreements.

Here are some of the important points a home inspection agreement should cover.

  • Scheduled date of the inspection
  • The price of the inspection as well as any additional fees for extra features that will be covered.
  • What the inspection includes, which places the inspection will cover, how detailed it will be, etc.
  • What the inspection excludes and whether you want any additional services done.
  • People who will have access to the inspection report.

You’ll Be Aware Of The Scope Of Inspection

The scope and objectives of the house inspection are specified in the agreement. This way, you won’t be surprised when you learn that a certain aspect isn’t covered. Home inspections in Duluth are indeed very detailed processes; however, sometimes the potential issue becomes out of the inspector’s reach, and in this case, they will try to direct you to an expert for things like further testing. 

Future Insurance Claims

It’s important to know the things that will be covered in your inspection because, in case of an emergency, you will need insurance to cover the damage, and most of these insurance companies require a documented pre-inspection agreement before covering damage. You can assume that you won't be covered by the inspector's insurance company if an inspection agreement isn't executed before the inspection.

Setting Expectations

It is important to set certain expectations and standards for home sellers, buyers, and home inspectors. This way, you will have reliable guidelines that all parties have agreed upon. If the potential buyer and the home inspector find common ground with the inspection agreement, the customer will be satisfied with the service they receive, and the home inspector will be more confident and comfortable doing their job, knowing what’s expected from each party.

Post-Inspection

After the inspection, based on the results, as a potential buyer, you may prefer to back out of the sale if the repairs or replacements are too expensive. Another option is asking the homeowner to fix these issues before buying the house or agreeing to cover them on your own with the condition of decreasing the price of the house. If the issues are minor, you may prefer to cover them from your budget; after all, every home is different.
