Advance Home Inspection is one of my go to home inspectors that I refer frequently for my clients (I'm a realtor). Even in my own home! Gordy is not just any home inspector, he used to work in construction so he knows what he is talking about. So... if you want to find a knowledgeable, attention to detail, honest and personable .. this is the company you want to hire for your home inspection. I would give him more then 5 + stars. read more

Gordy inspected my home when I was purchasing it. He highlighted what I needed to be concerned with and was great at explaining. He has been very knowledgeable and has valuable experience from being in the home construction industry prior. Even still I email him some questions and he is still helping me. I highly recommend him. Thank you Gordy! read more

Gordy is highly qualified, experienced, and exceptionally professional. Ask about his professional certifications, etc. We were very impressed. Also, he was prompt and very thorough in inspecting two properties we were interested in. We bought one of them as our happy, forever house based on his inspections. Gordy provided us his written report very quickly and it is comprehensive. This is our third time using his services! read more

I had Gordy from Advanced Home Inspections perform two inspections on different properties. Both reports were easy to understand and really like the ability to create a checklist for those items that needed attention. He was beyond thorough and provided both reports the day after the inspection. He also called to discuss and let me know he would be available to answer any questions along the way! The price was more than fair for all the work involved, would recommend him for anyone needing a home inspection! read more

Gordy was excellent. He was very professional, informative, friendly and he was very thorough. What I appreciated is when he walked around with us after the inspection, let us know the few things that needed to be taken care of, and he also told us little things like which rooms were on which circuit breaker and the main water lever and sprinkler system lever were in the garage in case of a leak or water issue. His inspection was easy to read, and he took a ton of pictures. He told us to call him at any time because he saves the pictures, and if we think something is going wrong or if something does go wrong, he has pictures of it all for future reference for up to 3 years. I am thankful we did the inspection with him, and I feel confident purchasing our home now. read more

This is my second purchase that I am using Gordy for and for good reason. He is thorough and very good at communicating his findings after inspection. It creates a clear plan for negotiating with seller and also has given me peace of mind that my purchase is a good investment. I highly recommend adding thermal imaging as it saved me a huge headache finding leaks that were not visible to the naked eye. Thanks Gordy! read more

Advanced Home Inspections - If I hadn't upgraded to include thermal imaging I would have not known about the two leaks as shown in Gordy's report. - Home Inspectors Near Me

Missing the home inspection on my first ever home purchase seemed like the worst idea in the world, but Gordy made me feel at ease that he would do an excellent job. Gordy sounded extremely knowledgeable on the phone. Being that we were from out of town, Gordy proceeded to explain the types of common problems to expect in Las Vegas homes, and what we should be looking out for. He answered every question we asked, and suggested since we were out of town that he was willing to call us immediately after the inspection to give us the run down of the house. PLUS he would be willing to COME BACK once we were in town again to show us how to properly maintain the house and point out what was wrong in person. I was sold. We scheduled the appointment as soon as we were sure the utilities would be on, and true to his word, Gordy arrived at the house (early) and called us right afterwards and spoke to us for well over an hour on the phone. We got the full walk through, followed by an extremely detailed written report with lots of photos highlighting every issue. I'd opted for the thermal imaging, and it was enlightening to see where we had insufficient insulation and where there were water leaks. I came away feeling like Gordy left no stone unturned. Not only that, but Gordy called us back AGAIN after he had emailed the report to make sure we understood it and reiterated multiple times that he wouldn't ever hesitate to answer any questions we had. Overall, a fantastic experience. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gordy! read more

Thank you Gordy for your personal approach in our first home purchase. We are very pleased and thankfull to you with all your advices and explanations. Absolutelt Recommend to Everyone!!!!!!!!!! read more

Gordy was great! He was communicative and detail-oriented. The report was done in a timely manner and was well put together, easy to read and understand. After, Gordy took the time to walk me through the report and answer any questions I had. read more

After researching online for home inspectors, I chose Gordy. We spoke at length several times on the phone before the inspection appointment. I could tell that Gordy was a knowledgeable and caring man who is genuinely concerned for his clients and their protection of any home issue that might come up. Day of inspection Gordy arrived promptly and with a friendly greeting. He left no stone unturned while inspecting a 2300 sq ft house in about 2 hours; He was patient in answering all my questions. After the process, Gordy welcomed any follow up calls I had with any issue of them home. I really appreciate that in a business. Kudos to Gordy Zorn. I am now a happy home owner and glad that I put my trust in Gordy. read more

Advanced Home Inspections is great and Gordy really knows what he is doing. Rather than looking for someone with a license, pick Gordy who has a license and experience as a builder. He not only knows all of the things he's supposed to look for; but he also *understands* them! He does a great job being thorough and complete and knows how to explain his reports to buyers so they don't "freak" out! read more

Gordy is great! When I purchase my next home, I will definitely be using him again. He is extremely knowledgeable, made sure I knew where everything was in my new home, and picked up on many details (big and small) that needed to be addressed before I buy this house. He provided an in depth report with photos and recommendations. Thanks so much, Gordy! read more

Gordy is amazing and so much fun to deal with. He is very professional and knowledgeable. Extremely sharp on time and very patient. He discovered so many detail problems that I did not even notice as the owner. Best part is that is makes a very fun and educational session. Tought me different functions of things and how to fix minor issues myself instead of getting expensive professionals. He also followed up with me and gave me a free revisit on an issue that he wanted to make sure my contractor fixed it. I would definitely recommend him. read more

I was introduced to Gordy Zorn through a first-time homebuyer Client and was very impressed with his thorough description to her of each of the items on his inspection report. He took as much time as she needed and explained each item in complete detail, with no rushing. Gordy's thermal imaging camera has uncovered some scary moisture items that were not discernable with the naked eye in another Client's home. There is a good deal of liability for inspectors, buyer's agents and brokers in this business and Gordy's systems and care greatly reduce the risk involved in purchasing a home. I will definitely use Advanced Home Inspections again! read more

I recommend Advance home inspection. I am a single mother and not only did Gordy walk me through the process, he also taught me how to upkeep everything. He was very knowledgable and personable. I'm very pleased with this company. read more

this guy makes up his own rules. does not follow the rules put in place for home inspections. I currently have a complaint against him for suggesting on a home inspection report to the potential buyer of my home to update items of a 1977 home that was built to 1977 code to current code which is illegal. He also called-out asbestos pipe on the report without having it tested and refused to change his report to" possible asbestos would require testing" when I confronted him after speaking to the home inspectors Association to confirm that everything he had done on this report was done wrong and illegally and essentially falsified. Code in a home from 1977 does not need to be updated unless you remove or replace a section or part of the home during a rebuild. After speaking to him on the phone twice about this which both times he hung up on me when i was telling him I had confirmed my belief about the report with the home inspectors Association he then blocked my phone number. He called out approximately 40 pages worth of problems on my home. Only 6 of the items were actually legitimate after verification with each trade line by line.. Luckily my wife is an union electrician And I am a union sheet metal journeyman and we both come from 20-plus years of construction background and were able to Call this guy's BS for what it was. I feel bad for future and past clients who have or will deal with this Gordo guy that don't know any better. hopefully my complaint w the real estate division will knock this guy's license for a suspension which I think he needs to realize that you don't get to make up your own rules. rules and code are put in place for a reason to be standardized across the board. if you don't know something or are unsure look it up don't make up things as you go. I feel for the home owners on the selling side of all the other good reviews this guy has above mine. they obviously had no construction and code knowledge and were fooled by his confidence . but believe me his confidence in what he thinks he knows is very wrong. read more

Being a first time homeowner is a little like being a first time parent...you worry over every single little thing! This March I had the good luck to be referred to Gordy for my home inspection. To say this man is a wealth of knowledge is the tip of the iceberg, he's also understanding of all the stress of a prospective homeowner and is very, very patient in his explanations. Fast forward...we buy the house and move in. Several months later, I noticed some cracks on the wall, and googled it...I just KNEW my beautiful new home had foundation damage. I called Gordy the next day and two days later he was there to re-inspect the home, free of charge. He patiently explained that the cracks I saw were normal and let me know what was common and what was out of the ordinary. He has my family's business for life! read more

I just bought my first home and was given a couple of home inspecting companies from the realtor,now i was always told not to go with the ones they tell you because it could be a friend that will just approve a house so they get the sale. So Lets start off by saying its so hard to trust others these days. I looked for my own home inspector, on the web,and looked through a few of them at that. My father used to work on houses and I could say I knew more than most , so I knew what kind of inspector I wanted, meaning real qualified experience. When I ran across advanced home inspector I seen that they do thermal imaging something I knew I wanted but one better he was certified in the imaging not just someone with a thermal camera. Also he built homes before being an inspector. well when I called I just knew in my gut I found the right place, .....so we are now at the home inspection and needless to say Gordy was remarkable! He really knew his stuff! the way he explains everything in real talk makes you understand exactly what he's saying . He is very thorough ! He doesn't mind you coming with, I think he actually enjoys educating us!!! Needless to say he was worth every Pennie! You get what you pay for right. Well I am completely happy, insured and satisfied that we have a safe/great home!!!!!!!!! Gordy you were our "Holmes on homes", and my family and I are so happy and very thankful you were our inspector!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

At the suggestion of my realtor I contracted Gordy Zorn to handle my home inspection as I pursued my first home purchase. It's important to note it was an FHA Loan. Upon the 2nd day of living in our home (We closed 3/31/17) our ceiling beneath the master bath caved in entirely. As it turns out a major cover up job had occurred and our entire Master Shower and Bath have water damage. The drain was not connected properly in the shower nor were the proper shower materials used for this bathroom - it was all recently remodeled. NONE of this was ever disclosed by the seller (we are fighting that out) and this is something that has cost us going on 20K in damages and repairs. We had to live thru a Mold situation with 3 children living in this house. Our Allstate Insurance adjuster denied our claim as everything was pre-existing! He actually asked if we even had an inspection at all. Gordy Zorn opted to mail back a check for our home fee on 04/10/17 - 10 days after we closed. It was not the original check it was another check he wrote-he claimed we never signed a contract. Totally incorrect and we informed him in writing our loan went thru because we did sign. I kept that check and never cashed it. Gordy Zorn has Chosen to IGNORE our attorney's demand requests. He should absolutely NOT be in business. He should not even have a license. I will be filing multiple complaints with all applicable parties. Gordy Zorn never bothered to review any of the permits on our house either - we stand to lose 20 to 30K because of this entire ordeal. read more

We were referred to Gordy (Owner of Advanced Home Inspections) a number of years ago for help with a water leak at our investment property. With his thermal imaging camera he was able to pinpoint the location of the leak and explained step by step how to correct the problem. His vast experience greatly helped us get through that stressful experience. We've bought several more investment properties over the past year and always got in touch with Gordy to inspect them prior to the purchases. He was in the process of adding a drone to his business to help him identify roof problems! You can trust him to be thorough and explain his findings in a way that is very understandable. read more

I'm writing this review after living in my house approx. 7 months after Gordy 'inspected' it. I'll simply comment on the sprinkler system. 6 leaks so far and counting. Lots of other minor issues not mentioned by Gordy. I didn't get a chance to be there when he 'inspected'; I wish I was. I went off of the Yelp reviews to hire him. Don't. He missed a ton of stuff. read more

Gordy Zorn is my go-to-guy for home inspections. I am a Realtor in Las Vegas, and I stake my reputation on those people that I refer to my clients. Gordy is the type of highly experienced and high integrity professional that makes me look good. He does an incredibly thorough job of inspecting homes and produces very useful reports that explain in plain language repair issues that need to be addressed. I know the value of a good internet review, and Gordy earned the time it took me to write this. Rick Watson, Coldwell Banker Premier Realty. read more

When I spoke with Gordy about doing my home inspection he explained how he had a routine and he requested that I hold off on any questions till he had completed his inspection so that he would not leave out anything. He explained that he would gladly respond to all my queries after he was done and reminded me that this being a major expenditure, there was no such thing as a dumb question for him. The man was true to his word and he did a very thorough inspection and he was very thorough and patient with his explanations. He explained many things that even my experienced Realtor found educational. Not only did he point out defects but he also took the time to explain how they could be addressed. As a bonus he also pointed out the kinds of maintenance that I should do and why it was necessary. He was very professional and yet very personable in his demeanor. He was very knowledgeable of codes and he explained that he used to oversee construction of homes. I was real glad that I did not opt to just let my Realtor accompany Gordy for the inspection. I would have lost out on a great education! read more
