As a first time home buyer, the process can be nerve-racking wanting to know if your builder is doing the job correctly. I chose Daniel initially based off his excellent yelp reviews, and he did not disappoint. Great communication and we were very impressed with his thorough inspection of our home. Additionally, my builder informed us that Daniel showed him the areas of concern so they could be marked for review. It the extra step that really matters. When final inspection comes, we will definitely be using Daniel again. read more

Could not be more pleased with Dan and InSight Home Inspections! Showed up early, got the inspection done in a few hours and stopped to answer my questions as a first time home buyer. Very detailed and insightful report! Got my report back within 24 hours of the start of the inspection! I read his stellar reviews and had a feeling he would be the guy to call. He brought his son to help speed the inspection up as well, will be using him in the future and recommending as well! read more

I want to write this review while it's still fresh in my head. First and foremost, thanks Dan for an amazing inspection. I contacted Insight Home Inspections to do an inspection for a house we wanted to purchase. He did an excellent and thorough inspection. He went up to the roof, he used thermal imaging to detect moisture and most important he went into the crawl space. We ended up cancelling the contract because I think it would end up being a money pit story. But I will try again and when I do, I honestly will call Dan again. If I could give him 10 stars I would. read more

Dan is fantastic. I was originally in the area looking for rentals and ended up putting an offer in on a beautiful house. It was Sunday and I was confident we would go into contract Monday morning. The challenge was my wife and I were scheduled to leave Wednesday am and I wanted both my wife and I to be there for the main inspection on Tuesday. I put a request for Home Inspection on Yelp saying I needed it fast and Dan was 1 of 2 to respond. He took my call Sunday night and said he could be available on Tuesday afternoon, even moving one of his appointments so he could be there around 1pm. We talked about various options that he provides: 1. He's a master inspection 2. His experience 3. The technology he uses 4. His additional offerings: Termite, Mold, etc We went into contract Monday morning and I confirmed with Dan for Tuesday at 1:30pm. From Monday until Tuesday at 12:00pm, I went back and forth telling him I wanted a service, then I didn't want a service (based on new info). Did it about 3 times if memory serves. On Tuesday around 12:00pm, my wife and I thought we uncovered a major issue with the neighborhood and panicked and cancelled Dan. He was graceful about it. Shortly after, we discovered it wasn't a big deal and I texted Dan to see if he was still available. Didn't hear back from Dan until around 1:30pm as he didn't get the text right away. The issue was he and his son were driving home and they were about 1 hour away. I apologize profusely and asked him to please come back as we needed to get the inspection done before we left Monday. To his gigantic credit he came back and did an awesome job on the inspection. He reviewed everything with us at the end and had the report the next morning. He was courteous and professional and the inspection report was impressive. Can't say enough about him - highly recommend! read more

Very responsive and professional, does not delay or cut corners in his services whatsoever. We reached out and he was immediately ready to help us with an inspection first thing the next morning. Every result he found, he made sure to explain it to us in a way that made sense and refrained from being vague, ensuring to present a visual representation subsequently after an explanation. Would recommend him for anyone who is in need of someone skilled, experienced, quick and professional. read more

Very detailed inspection reports for both my pre-drywall and final walkthrough inspections.

Great experience! Best money spent out of all the extras when purchasing a home. The inspection was scheduled right away, it was thorough and detailed, and I received the report when promised. The best is yet to be told. I reached out for help reading the reports and Dan patiently assisted in providing a fresh link to just what I needed. Then, he even reviewed the repairs report. Awesome guy, excellent service, and money well spent. Thanks for all your time and support. read more

Dan was prompt, considerate, and meticulous. He explained everything he found and the report he provides is detailed with pictures. The termite report was bare bones for me because he didn't find anything. For mold testing he did an air quality report which did not find any indications of further study needed. I'm not sure of he would have had to go back a second time if there were high levels of spores in the air, or if the air testing is the same as the mold test and that's all the evidence you need. I would trust Dan to do any home inspection, I especially appreciate how responsive he is over text. read more

I chose Dan based on Yelp reviews and he lived up to all the positive reviews I read! We used his online contact form and the confirmation of receipt included a message inviting you to text him for a faster response. I appreciate texting but don't always assume it's "ok" especially to a business. I sent over a text and he called within 20 minutes. He provided his schedule so we were able to get an inspection the next day. Processing payment was also easy since he provides several options to pay. He conducted the inspection and talked us through a few items which was good as it gave us the opportunity to ask questions. He was very professional and thorough and want to add that he was courteous to the owners who were in the process of preparing for an estate sale. We received the final inspection/air testing and wind mitigation report the same day which was complete with pictures & recommendations. He also sent a separate email with the attached pdf reports required for insurance even though the same reports are within his overall report. I appreciated this because all I needed to do was simply forward the reports to our insurance agent. Home buying can be a stressful experience due to all the unknowns that might be discovered during a home inspection. Working with Dan felt effortless and definitely eased some of my anxiety around the whole process! Thanks, Dan! read more

Dan is excellent at what he does and was worth every penny. He is extremely detailed, careful, and informative. Because of this we were able to identify an issue that would have costed me potentially 10's of thousands of dollars in the first two or three years of owning my newly built home. Home buyers hear me out............... look no further than Dan! read more

Dan was great, he is thorough with the wind mit, bug, and general home reports and as a first time homebuyer helped with some tips and tricks I didn't know. Highly recommend! -John read more

Great experience, because Dan positioned us to soundly negotiate a home sale with a home that had been vacant for over two years. You can only imagine. He is busy and we can see why; despite this he was easy to communicate with and kept us informed long after the inspection with any questions with the reports. Its one thing being the best, but actually finding the best is critical and you have to correctly market yourself which exposes a professional up for critical reviews. Go with Dan for full home inspection, WDO, wind mitigation test, and mold testing he did it all for us. His website and billing was first rate and intuitive. read more

Dan is very professional gets the job done and quickly. Very happy with our results . Debbie and Marilyn read more

Great expierence, super responsive. Had our report within a day or two. Very thorough. Thanks!

unbelievable experience. i needed an inspection on a home i was purchasing before i closed. I live almost 4 hours away from that location. i contacted Daniel and he responded quickly and set up a time for his inspection all thru email. Daniel communicaction and attention to detail was super. the report I received that evening of the inspection was dry detailed oriented which I forwarded to my builder so I could have a smooth closing with those repairs already done to save time and frustration with the closing. i find that customer service isn't what it used to be but with Daniel he far exceeding my expectations. if you dont use Daniel for an inspection, you may regret it. read more

I can not express how appreciative I am for InSight Home Inspections. First off I am big on reading reviews for services I need. I live in an area where most of the reviews were either outdated, non-existent, or down right bad. I reached out to Insight and was told they do not service my area. I explained my situation and he said he'd try to work me in before the 11-month warranty for our new home. Dan did charge me an extra fee for driving out of his area and I did not mind paying that fee plus more. His amazing reviews definitely was worth it. Dan showed up when expected and explained in detail what was found. I attached the pictures of Dans findings to my home warranty page and 95% of what he found was fixed by the home warranty company. If I wouldn't have hired InSight Home Inspections, I'm positive these things would have gone untouched as I would not have noticed them on my own. 13 of my interior doors had to be fixed. 13!!! I'd only noticed three of them. Tomorrow I get a new sliding door installed under warranty. Thank you so much Dan! I'd hire you again and again if needed. read more

I contacted Daniel regarding a 4 point home inspection and a wind mitigation. He responded within two minutes. Unfortunately he does not work in my area, but I still found that to be extremely professional and helpful to me because now I can move on to find someone in my area. I would highly recommend using this man if he works in your area because for him to be that quick and response to someone that was not gonna give him a dime because he can't work in my area I find to be extremely professional and courteous. read more

We've used Dan from InSight Home twice now, and both times he has done an exceptional job. His thorough inspections caught issues we would have missed, saving us money in the long run. The detailed reports and clear explanations make it easy to understand the findings. We highly recommend InSight Homes for anyone looking for a reliable and professional home inspector! read more

Dan Horton is a master home inspector! We are moving to Clearwater and needed a home inspected. We found Dan on Yelp. He was completely professional and thorough. His report was easy to read and understand. AND we got it the next day!!! I even called Dan two days later for advice and he spoke with me for 20 minutes. I highly recommend him. read more

Dan did a great job. Very thorough inspection, easy to read reports, and was very accommodating to my schedule. He also had one of the best prices. Which was not why I hired him, he had excellent reviews and that was important to me both on yelp and Google. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to others! read more

The owner/inspector of InSight Home Inspections, Dan, is the consummate professional. I needed to find an inspector for a home my husband and I were looking to purchase in Riverview and we needed the inspection done within one week. Although Dan was booked solid, he was able to squeeze our inspection in during the required time frame. Dan showed up to the inspection on time and was very thorough with his inspection, not leaving any question or concern of ours unanswered. Included in his very reasonable price was a four-point inspection, a look over for potential safety and integrity issues of the swimming pool, and a window mitigation report, which helped us get a lower homeowner's insurance quote. Invoicing and the payment was easy too! We and our realtor received our written report the next morning in an electronic format, which was downloadable and printable. The issues noted from the inspection were broken down into three color coded parts in the report to easily identify the category of concern (maintenance, deficiencies, and safety hazards), as long with a detailed description and recommendation for each item, and color photos. We were very lucky and pleased to have found Dan. I highly recommend his services and expertise to anyone that is looking for exceptional customer service and thorough home inspection. read more

Right out of the gate, I will tell you this is a tremendous value! Dan Horton is a true professional and enjoys his work and it shows. Dan did a thorough inspection on a home in Orlando Florida for me. That is a big investment and I wanted to make sure that I was not buying something that was going to have many problems. in the end, I did not buy the home because there were many things that I did not see that Dan found. While most of this could've been repaired, I believe it would have been a great cost and the money that I would have paid was well beyond with the house was worth in that condition. I give his business an A+++ read more

Dan was very thorough and provided a detailed professional report for my pre drywall inspection that I was able to provide to my project manager to make the necessary changes. Dan was very responsive to the many questions and issues that I had . I would not hesitate to use his services in the future. I highly recommended him. read more

InSight Home Inspections and Dan are truly a blessing to those looking for a reliable, diligent, and skilled home inspector. I am in awe at how much effort and professionalism Dan puts into his craft, especially after just reviewing his report. Dan could have opted to provide the bare minimum like many other home inspectors, but cares about his customers and delivers quality. If you care about your newly purchased home whether it be new construction or an older construction, look no further. I repeat, if you ever need a home inspector in the Tampa area, even as far as Wesley Chapel, you can pause your due diligence and rest assured that InSight Home Inspections and Dan are your go-to. read more

Working on short notice, I can honestly say that InSight Home Inspections came through for me. I live out of state and needed a pre drywall inspection in my new home buy in Tampa, Florida. Daniel Horton who conducted the inspection was very thorough and professional in his inspection. He was courteous and accommodating given the short timeframe. The price was just right and quite reasonable. I highly recommend them for a job well done. You can't go wrong with this company. I will be using them again for final inspection. read more

Business would not come "this far" to Lutz for a 4-point and wind mitigation inspection. Website claims Tampa area is in service but apparently for big jobs only. Other companies gave me a quote and explained why it might cost more. This guy texted only a "no, I'm too busy." read more

Dan is extremely professional and conducted a comprehensive 11-month warranty inspection for our new construction in Bexley. His level of responsibility and expertise is highly commendable. The final report provided was incredibly detailed, spanning over 50 pages. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Dan's services for any house inspection within his service area. 非常满意的屋检，整个流程都很正规，而且检查得非常仔细，真希望买房的时候就请他。 read more

Do not hesitate to request a home inspection from Dan. I can't say enough about his professionalism, his promptness, and the value for your money! He is very thorough and spent time listening and explaining during and after the inspection. He provided much needed advice and pictures to back up his thoughts. Do yourself a HUGE win with this company! read more

If I could give Dan 100 stars, he certainly deserves it. Disregard any reviews lower than a 5 star, here's why: I was negotiating a purchase of a home in Wesley Chapel on a Tuesday evening, I called Insight Inspection because he serviced the Wesley Chapel area. Dan answered the phone at 10:00 pm, I apologized for calling so late and told him I planned to leave a message for the next morning. He said no problem "I'm just finishing up for the day." I asked but not really thinking he could accommodate a home inspection for the following week. Dan said, we can schedule you for this Friday at 2:00 pm. To say I was very happy is an understatement. I coordinated with the home buyer and met Dan at exactly 2:00 pm on Friday. He was extremely thorough and took the time to explain all the questions my buyer had. He finished up without a mess, did a additional inspections that are typically add -ons and said he'd try to send me the inspection report the following day which was on Saturday. At 7:30 pm he sent a text letting me know that my report which also included a summary was in my emails. He is an excellent Inspector with outstanding knowledge of house structures, all the mechanics and he has outstanding customer service skills. He is very organized and deserving of a great review!! Dan is one of the best Home Inspectors I have ever worked with. Thank you Dan!! read more

I know construction and renovation crews have been extremely subpar these past 3 years, so I wanted to be extra thorough when selecting a home inspector. I called 4 home inspection companies, Daniel was by far the most professional on the phone. He is also a Certified Master Inspector, which is an advanced level certification. His price was competitively fair, and was given based off SF & amenities - and he offers military discount! He was quickly responsive with any questions I had before, during the inspection, and after I received the report. I asked him to look at a few extra elements I was concerned about (other residents in the community had experienced issues in their homes), and he included those as well. His report was VERY thorough, and every picture had an explanation as well as a suggested course of action. I ended up hiring Daniel to look at two homes. One was brand new construction, and one was and older waterfront - he showed diligence and experience in both reports. I would absolutely recommend Daniel to anyone for a home inspection! read more

Trying to buy a house in Tampa from out of State was super stressful till we found Dan and InSight Home Inspection. So many worries about the safety and integrity of the house while moving in with two small children. Dan went above and beyond to make sure every little corner and crevice has been fully inspected . I am an engineer and Dan's report was one of the best inspection reports I have seen . So meticulous, detail oriented with pictures and tabulated summaries of maintenance, deficiencies and safety hazard items! And no that didn't stop there! Dan also helped us with cost estimates and prioritization of needed repairs for FREE! This was critical for negotiations with seller! I highly recommend InSight Home Inspection ! Thanks and God Bless you Dan! read more

See all

Dan was a great home inspector! He had an eagle eye looking for anything out of the ordinary in the home. He walked us through after the inspection and thoroughly explained every issue he saw. He was very accommodating with his schedule and worked with our short timeline. His prices are also great! read more

Dan was a great find! His services are well priced, and he did a superb job. His findings were not frivolous but rather, very meaningful when it comes to the home building process and their impacts on the home and its performance. I also wanted to pass along that when Dan inspected our new construction home for us in Lakewood Ranch, FL... he found damaged electrical insulation which resulted in our builder changing their entire process on how their electricians run electrical and they ended up going back through their in-process homes and ended up fixing approx. 13 homes that had these types of issues. This was a great find and lead to a big process improvement with this builder. We will be using him again for our final home inspection prior to closing sometime next month. 100% recommended! read more

Dan responded to my request for quote almost immediately. After reviewing multiple quotes, I took Dan's service for pre-drywall inspection of my home. Dan did an awesome job with the inspection. He was very professional and thorough identifying deficiencies and documenting them appropriately and adequately with references to building codes as needed. After I sent Dan's findings to my builder, Dan responded to their follow-up questions with due clarification. I am very happy that I decided to take Dan's service. I'll seek his assistance again and I recommend him to anyone for similar services and wish him well. read more

I am thankful to Dan Horten of Insight Home inspection. His company provided a pre inspection service for our new home. As we lived in another state we needed a reputable home inspector that would represent our interests and provide his professional expertise. After reviewing several companies and talking to Dan personally we selected Insight Home Inspection. Dan was responsive to all my questions and was thorough in his report. I highly recommend Insight Home inspection for your needs. And we will be using his company for our final inspection! Thank you very much Dan! read more

Wind Mitigation Included too?! WOW! I don't always leave reviews, but I really feel compelled to do so! Everything went perfect from the start. I spoke to Dan explaining that I was purchasing a new home and that I didn't need a full on inspection. I only wanted the main/big components checked out. Dan gave me an excellent price, and explained that he also included a wind mitigation. I shopped around with other inspectors and everyone else already was charging a lot more and they didn't include a wind mitigation (explained further down). Dan was punctual, diligent and very communicative. He explained everything as he went along and checked each part of the house. We were able to find some important things that, as a brand new property, I would have easily missed. Dan used a temperature sensor gun that would clearly show what the temperature of the hot water was coming out the faucets. A big issue Dan was able to catch was that the HVAC system was backwards! There was cold air blowing out the filter vents! The builder took care of the issue immediately. The wind mitigation really helped me out, our insurance company was able to give us a further discount of $200! And it's good for the next 5 years! Dan also provides an exceptionally detailed review and a quick summary with all the issues found. The detailed review comes with pictures (drone pictures too!), suggestions and cautious advice of any components and appliances in your house. I really lucked out with Dan and I would highly recommend his services! Thanks again Dan! read more

Dan did a wonderful job informing me of issues with our properties and suggesting solutions. His equipment (especially the FLIR) was especially useful in determining our insulation situation. I'll be using Dan more in the future and would suggest others do so as well. read more

I needed a 4-point inspection for my homeowners insurance. Insight did a great job with communication, scheduling, and promptness. Dan even held off writing his report so that I could fix two items of concern. He was professional and friendly. I would definitely use this company again, as well as recommending it to others. read more
