This company did the inspection for our home. While the inspector was a good guy, I have to say that, in hindsight, the final report was not all it could have been. It definitely lacked a lot of details about a variety of issues we subsequently found/stumbled onto. For example, there was no mention of a leak in the basement, a melted wire in our circuit breaker, poor attic ventilation, and improperly placed heating vent, and a problematic air conditioner.
All of these issues came up weeks after we moved in, so we can't help feel a bit let down by the inspection company. Surely, as seasoned professionals, they should have figured these things out before we did! Why else are we paying hundreds of bucks to have them inspect the place?
To be fair, the inspector did a good job of highlighting the basics and he also sent over some useful tips for maintaining the house. However, if we would have received a few more details on the problems here, we probably could have negotiated a bit harder with the seller.
Buyer beware, for both your home purchase and the people who inspect it. read more
