The service is impeccable and Steve's attention to detail saved me money as he found things that maybe another less experienced inspector might skip over. If I could give this company 10 stars in my review, I would! But since only 5 are allowed that's what I will give them. Hands over and above, choose this company over the others.

I reached out to several home inspection companies for quotes, and Desert State Home Inspections…read moreimmediately stood out from the rest. From the moment I sent a text message, Leigh responded right away--professional, clear, and incredibly efficient. She had me scheduled for an inspection within minutes. We never even spoke over the phone, yet her communication and customer service were top-notch. Unfortunately, I had to cancel the appointment the day before. A full refund was processed immediately--no questions asked. Leigh was so understanding and accommodating of our situation, which left a lasting impression. Fortunately the following week, I was able to reschedule and once again, Leigh made it happen seamlessly. Our assigned inspector Marc Freislinger came out on a Sunday, arriving early and already working when we got there. He was friendly, thorough, and easy to talk to. During the review, he walked us through everything clearly and even offered valuable advice on what to ask the builder regarding repairs. That same evening, he sent a detailed inspection report--complete with clear photos and notes--just as promised. I can't recommend Desert State Home Inspections highly enough. Their professionalism, honesty, and genuine care for their clients truly set them apart. Their pricing is very fair compared to other companies, and they even offer a $100 discount if you use them again before your one-year builder walk through. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and customer-focused inspection company, Desert State Home Inspections absolutely deserves your business. They certainly have mine for years to come. Thanks again Leigh & Marc!

We really appreciated walking the site with Matt and his on-site inspectors. They were very thorough and explained things in an easy to understand manner. The report was also easy to follow and interpret. I loved the color coding legend, it helped me find what I was looking for quickly. The summary page was especially useful in helping us draft our buyers response. The coordinator Aaron was great too, very friendly and responsive during what can be a very stressful time. I would highly recommend them. Thanks everyone.

We were very impressed with the home inspection that Kevin performed for us. He was extremely…read moredetailed and professional, noting recommendations and items for follow-up by our builder that we had missed during our punch list walk-through. Kevin inspected each nook and cranny of the home, including roof, attic, and electrical. He took photos of each area that were included in the report delivered the same evening as he did the inspection. Very prompt and very thorough report, including a 2-page summary for our builder to take as additional punch list items. Being new to the area, he addressed questions we had about construction in a different part of the country and took the time to explain things that were both necessary and unnecessary. Since Kevin is a civil engineer, we felt very comfortable discussing technical aspects of our new home. Kevin was terrific and we highly recommend his services. The value we received from his inspection outweighs an insurance policy and we will hire him again for our one-year walk-through as well as five or ten years down the road to give another independent, unbiased, neutral opinion on home items needing remediation, repair, or touch-up.

Steven Boyle recently conducted our inspection on a townhome in Scottsdale and we were thoroughly…read moresatisfied. Really appreciated how detail oriented Steven was; he noticed things that we hadn't during our prior visits to the property. It was also great to sit down with Steven after the inspection to review his report together, ask questions, and go look at some of his findings in real time. Really glad we chose to go with Advantage. They were the best combination of good reviews, high volume of reviews, and price. Also the offer to warranty parts of the property was a differentiator in the marketplace. Will definitely hire Advantage again for our next inspection.

I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience needs to be shared so other homebuyers don't end…read moreup in the same situation!! I hired Advantage Inspection Service for a home inspection on a property in Mesa, AZ and paid over $1,300 expecting a thorough and accurate evaluation. Unfortunately, the inspection completely understated a very obvious issue with the patio roof. At the time of inspection, the patio ceiling when you walk out onto the patio had visible sagging and clear signs of prior water damage, including patched and freshly painted drywall underneath. These were not hidden defects they were observable conditions. However, the inspection report described the ROOF as being in "near satisfactory condition" with a general "review" recommendation. NO documentation on the visible damage of the ceiling. That wording makes it sound like a minor or precautionary item, not something that could turn into a costly repair. Based on that report, I moved forward with the purchase. After closing, I had multiple professionals look at it and they all immediately pointed out the same thing. That this was a significant issue that should have been clearly identified during the inspection. What made things worse was the way the company handled it afterward. I had to repeatedly follow up just to get responses, calls weren't returned, and it took about two weeks to get a formal reply. The supervisor, Ryan Peart, ultimately relied on the "review" language in the report to avoid responsibility and offered only a 30% partial refund of the inspection fee. The issue here isn't that they didn't mention it at all, it's that the condition was seriously understated and they took no accountability. As a homebuyer, you rely on the inspection to understand what's actually going on. If something is visibly deteriorated, it should be clearly described that way. Inspections are supposed to protect buyers, not leave them with unexpected repairs after closing. I would strongly recommend anyone to stay away from this company and make sure your agent stays away from them as well. I trusted the report and unfortunately paid for it later. But currently in talks with the AZ Board of Technical Registration to hopefully suspend their license because it's completely unethical what they do to homebuyers! Hold them accountable! Just sharing my experience so others can make a more informed decision.
