This is the second time we've used CBI for inspecting our potential home, and they continued to do…read morea great job! We used Ken Whitelaw for the first inspection, which found a multitude of issues which we would have otherwise written off as minor. We also learned ALOT from Ken as he walked through the condo, testing appliances, etc. as he explained what he was doing and why. At the second inspection, he was just as helpful and detail-oriented the first time around. This time, the condo was in an older building, and Ken remained thorough and made sure (again) to pay attention to details in the condo. I've added CBI to my list of dependable Chicago vendors and highly recommend Ken!

Absolutely outstanding. I just moved into a new construction…read morecustom home in which the build / builder was a disaster. Any concern brought up, I was either gaslit , ignored or the builder didn't follow through either b/c he forgot or didn't care ( who can say ? ). After two agonizing years, i finally moved in yet was brimming with questions that could only be answered by a respected 3rd party expert. I knew there were areas of the house that were not constructed properly yet having been gaslight so many times, I was confused on what all was defective vs. normal. Big thank you to Mark w/ Domicile, who was my Lead Inspector. Mark carries decades of experience in which I found him to be fair, firm, patient and very educative. Shout out to him for answering ALL of my questions (there were many). Mark's report was very thorough in which I can now focus on areas that need to be addressed. To anyone out there building a custom home, don't make the same mistake I did in waiting until after your move in / final occupancy to book Domicile. Very important! Thank you Domicile/ Mark.

At first I didn't think I needed an inspection since it was a newer condo and it looked in good shape. But I was able to get credits from the seller from his findings that paid for the inspection and then some. They also had one of the lower prices when i compared with other inspectors.

From the initial walkthrough, we had concerns about the state of the foundation. Not wanting to place a bid without understanding the depth of the issues and the potential cost, we hired Jeffrey to help us. When you meet him, you'll see what a genuinely curious person he is and just how much he knows about buildings and construction. He is patient with answering questions, and provides facts and estimates, making sure to note when you will need another professional (such as a structural engineer) to lend their expertise. I found him to be curious, thorough, honest, and kind. We will absolutely hire him again in the future.

Then when…read moreI met with him at the property, he had already begun the inspection and immediately began showing me his findings and even provided recommendations for the type of contractors I may need. I was really surprised with his level of attention to detail, and how well the report was written up--which I received a day later! I also liked that it's possible to create a repair list from the online report to aid with negotiations. Stephen truly brought much needed insight and clarity to the condition of the home, this in turn made our decision easier. He provided much more value than who our lender recommended.

So just to say he is legit. He will find every little thing there could possibly be, but he also has a pulse on what matters and what doesn't. He won't try to spook you, but he does want to protect you and is a hardcore advocate for his clients. He comes with tons of nerdy tools, is funny and easy to work with, and is an incredibly hard worker. He has experience with residential homes and investment properties alike, and is going to be one of the most important tools in your property buying arsenal. Cannot recommend highly enough!
