Like other reviews, I highly recommend Mike (Prominent Home Inspections LLC), because he was very knowledgable, patient, thorough and responsive throughout the whole home inspection process. Scheduling our inspection appointment was seamless and responses to general question before the inspection were addressed within an hour or two by Mike. himself. Mike arrived at least 15 minutes early to the appointment and immediately started a very thorough inspection of the inside and outside of the home, for environmental to structural issues (e.g. radon test, oil tank sweep, pests (termites & rodents), water damage, mold, roof, chimney, gutters, etc.). He also checked all major appliances (e.g. HVAC, washer, dryer, stove, dishwasher, etc.) and flagged anything he thought may need service or replacement in the near future. Oh and did I mentioned that while conducting this very detailed inspection, he patiently addressed all the dumb and outrageous questions I could think of. The Inspection took about 2 hours and the inspection report was received about 24 hours later via email. The report was well organized, easy to understand and didn't include any surprises that he hadn't already explained to us during the inspection. Again, we highly recommend Mike and appreciate him making this part of the home buying experience smooth and easy.

So we, of course, had zero idea of what to expect during the walk-through inspection (that was scheduled last minute.) Not only was Vinny incredibly accommodating, but he was also very communicative. He arrived early for the inspection, and as soon as I met him, I immediately felt comfortable with his calm and personable/welcoming demeanor. He was incredibly thorough throughout the whole process. Checked things I would never have thought to check and encouraged us to ask all and every question that came to mind. As soon as he'd see something that immediately concerned him or something that could potentially become a problem years from now, he'd voice his thoughts to us. Considering this is a new construction, we were a bit surprised with the amount of things that needed fixing--nothing serious, primarily cosmetic. The following day we received his report exactly when he said he'd send it. It was very detailed and also included photos of his findings. The report is straightforward and easy to comprehend, even for those of us with zero experience. And of course, this all transpired while adhering to COVID-19 guidelines. Overall, we are very impressed with Vinny's professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. I cannot recommend him and his services enough. Thank you, Vinny!

Finding a vendor that can 'do-it-all' was a head-pulling process until I found Mikhail (he goes by 'Michael') who said yes to all three. He showed up on time, immediately ran a ground scan performing the oil tank sweep, thoroughly went through the house for the inspection, and left a radon test kit in the basement to collect an air sample, all for about two hours. Very next day, I received three reports at 9pm: 1. Inspection 2. Termites 3. Oil Tank Sweep Currently awaiting a radon test result. Since collecting a sample takes two days and the sample has to be shipped to a lab, several more days are needed. He's done a great job and I highly recommend hiring him for your due diligence. Thanks, Michael! Dan

WARNING!!!!! The inspector raced through the inspection of my home before purchase and failed to…read moreidentify major issues ... corroded wiring and rusted electrical panels, exposed chimney vent (easily visible). Now I'm stuck with thousands of dollars of bills to repair after the purchase of the home. When I asked the company to compensate via insurance, they stated I signed an agreement which I can only claim damages up to the amount of the inspection fee $450!!!. They screwed me and cost me money on the home price as well as repair and refuse to make me whole! Mark Bendit, shame on you! Please check the agreement before you sign. It says you waive your right to be compensated above the inspection fee if they are negligent!! Do not sign! Do not use their services!!! UPDATE!! Based on owners response: The owner didn't refer me to his insurance as he claims. He referred me to his lawyer, who stated they were not obligated to pay me for their negligence. They will only return my inspection fee if I sign a release form. Mark, please don't make me post the release form next. Having your insurance fix the damage would have been the honorable thing to do.

John did a thorough inspection of a 3,500 sq ft detached single-family home. It's a 2015 build with…read morea fully finished basement, multiple bathrooms, an attic, a garage/portico area, and a sauna. This was not a simple walkthrough; the property had a lot going on, and John covered every inch of it. The 82-page report was incredibly detailed and well-organized, broken out by section: interior, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, HVAC, water heater, electrical, roof, attic, exterior, grounds, foundation, basement, and even the sauna. Each area had individual line items rated Good/Fair/Poor with written observations and photos documenting any issues found. What impressed me most was the range of issues he caught -- from the obvious (gutters sagging and damaged from ice weight at the front of the house, a cracked sink in the master bath) to more subtle findings that a less experienced inspector might miss, like the attic air handler's condensate pump lacking an emergency pan and water sensor, a sagging joist underneath the garage/portico vinyl wall opening, water intrusion and damage at the back of a cantilevered balcony, and vertical step cracking in the yard's stucco block wall indicating settlement. He was also upfront about what he couldn't test and why -- the AC compressors weren't tested due to cold weather temperature restrictions, the sprinkler system was winterized, hose bibs were valved off for winter, and an upstairs shower body had been locked out by the seller. That kind of transparency is exactly what you want. John didn't just flag problems, he gave practical recommendations: cap the weathered exterior door frame with aluminum for maintenance-free protection, install a drip edge on the cantilevered balcony to divert water properly, upgrade a non-GFCI receptacle on the exterior, and have sunken pavers reinstalled. These are actionable items you can hand directly to contractors. The report summary up front was a huge help for quickly identifying the most significant findings before diving into the full details. The home was occupied and heavily furnished at the time, which can limit visibility, but John noted that clearly and still managed to be extremely comprehensive. Highly recommend John for anyone buying a home`. He's thorough, professional, and the report gives you real leverage for negotiations.
