I used Chris Pasten as my home inspector since 2021, giving him deal after deal over the years…read more Despite sending him consistent business, I never once received a referral in return. On top of that, I often found myself doing the legwork to coordinate inspections, after handing him clients directly. I wish someone would do that for my business, but I don't have that luxury. Today, I asked him to call my client directly to schedule. Instead, at 12:29 PM, he texted me a proposed time and waited for me to confirm it. I replied one minute later, just needing to double check with the buyer, since she works weekends. I also asked if he had any other time slots available, just in case. At 12:57 PM, he said, "Oh ok, Monday 1pm or 4:30pm?" I called my client immediately. She said Sunday is perfect. I texted him back at 1:01 PM: "She said Sunday is good." At 1:02 PM, he replied that he had already given that slot away. I told him how frustrating this pattern has become, how I'm the one bringing him business and expected to coordinate it like I'm his assistant, even after I send him their phone number and address. All he had to do was make the call I initially asked for. That alone was already disrespectful, but this is 95% of the time. Today, I got fed up with his entitled attitude. But here's the biggest issue, during the inspection at my personal property, Chris looked at my wife in a way that crossed the line. She was newly pregnant at the time, with my daughter. I never said anything before, but today, I did, after telling him respectfully that I'm not his secretary. I texted him exactly, "I know you're single, but next time when you see my wife, don't ever look at her like that again. Respect boundaries." Instead of clearing the air, denying it, or offering any sort of apology, Chris doubled down. He accused me of being "borderline abusive," claimed I was the problem, and said he would no longer work with me. Textbook... tried to gaslight me when I raise my concerns as a client. He completely ignored the concern I raised, and chose confrontation over accountability. I did not curse, threaten, or attack him. I asked for mutual respect after four years of being a loyal, reliable source of business. The way Chris chose to respond, by confronting me instead of addressing the issue, tells me everything I need to know. That kind of reaction speaks louder than any denial ever could. It confirmed what I had felt all along, and validated that my instincts were 100% spot on. My wife agrees. I've kept a full record of our text exchange and prior incidents. If needed, or if there's retaliation or misrepresentation, I'm more than willing to share the screenshots. If you're a fellow agent or investor and want to verify the details, feel free to message me privately. Chris expects a handout, and doesn't respect the Realtors who hand him business on a silver platter, due to his personal biases and differences. Has zero accountability.

They both acted clueless, pointing fingers at each other. When I went to charge them for all the extra work and other tasks they had me do, he always hit me with, 'Well, I guess I never told you to do those things,' even though they needed to be done for his house. He never complained once the work was finished, only when it came time to charge them. I'm just saying, if you're thinking about doing business with this guy, be cautious. He'll try to twist things to benefit himself, whether you're a realtor or any kind of investor. Trust me, he's not professional at all. He'll yell and scream at you when things don't go his way, and he'll even resort to name-calling. It's childish behavior for a grown man. So, if you're a realtor or any type of investor looking for a home inspection, I'd advise against working with him. I've talked to several realtors who've had bad experiences with him too."

The Inspection I had with Nick was eye opening. I knew there would be things to fix but he was…read morepointing out things that I had no idea about and things that will come in the future. He provided so much information and education on what to fix and gave rough estimates on how much things would/should costs to repair. I wish I could take him with me every time I view a home. The inspection definitely opened my eyes on what to look for when viewing a property and shopping around. He was on the roof looking for any signs of leaking, crawling around in the crawl spaces looking for cracks and any signs of leaking or damage. Testing all outlets and lights and appliances. He took a close look at everything and let us know what works and what does not work and let us know what could go out at any time. When looking at the AC and Heat he tested both and the AC is working but he let us know the unit is old and could go at any time. He did the same for the furnace. The Furnace looked fine to me but he let us know it was very old and did not work. Great information to have before Jack Frost comes to town. I will definitely contact Nick again to check out our property after repairs are done and with any future home we purchase. As far as professionalism. I arrived early because I don't like to keep people waiting and when I arrived Nick was already there and already starting on the outside which was immediately a plus for me especially since I set up the inspection only earlier in the week. He provided information on what he found going on outside the property and the type of maintenance I will have to do as time goes on and what I would be able to do myself and what I should call a professional about. He made what he does look easy but with the amount of information he provided, it is obvious there is so much to know and I can only imagine how much more there could only be if the property Is in bad shape. We contacted two other home inspectors and Nick gave us the best quote. My realtor worked with him also before and said he does great work and really knows his stuff so that plus the best price overall I feel I made a great choice with choosing MVP Home Inspections. If all does not go well with the repairs I want done with the property I am trying to purchase I will for sure contact him for future inspections and refer him to anyone I know looking to purchase a home and needs an inspection. I'm not sure the situation with the below reviewer but I don't feel like any information was left out with my inspection. Everything that is working and old with possible future problems I was notified about. Problems that are not there but will/may happen in the future, I was notified about. Everything down to water pressure or the hot/cold being installed opposite I was notified about. Every outlet tested etc. Also provided that same night was the inspection report. Keep in mind, my inspection was done at 3pm, on a Sunday and it lasts a couple hours and I still received my report the same day. Not sure how Yelp works but if you can check my profile, I don't leave many reviews. I have to receive some GREAT service to take time a write a review. So if you are on the fence on who or where to go for your home inspection Nick is def the person to contact.

It's also possible that none of those things would happen. But if anything did fail, I'm sure could trace it back to one of the property "concerns" listed in the meticulous inspection report provided by Inspection Connection. It's also possible that Mike Lamb thought he was dealing with an idiot (I'm a novice in home maintenance, for sure), but if that's the case he didn't show a trace of the condescension or arrogance that smart people sometimes enjoy taking on, as he calmly, patiently, and stoically led me through a skeptic's tour of a flawed property. He never stated his overall opinion about the place, but instead left me with a list of concerns that took a while to sink in. Ultimately I convinced myself that it was *I* who decided that what I once thought was my dream condo would be more trouble than it was worth. The dude is also a good writer and communicator. I'd recommend asking for his "Property Inspection Basics" sheet, which will help you pre-screen for any obvious problems with plumbing, structure, moisture, etc.. There are also some useful pages on his website- one outlining an approach to condo buying (reviewing the condo association's minutes and reserves, etc.) and another outlining the particular concerns of Chicago's split face block construction of the late 1990s and 2000s. I later shared my inspection report with my dad, a man of few words who built our family's sturdy New England house some 50 years ago, and he came to a similar conclusion as me: "Ditch the condo, keep the inspector."
