I just started going into escrow with a mobile home that I purchased, and finding the right…read moreinspection service was at the top of my list. Being in the high desert leaves exposure to both hot and cold extremities for a home. The options for my area were rather limited, and any other services would charge for traveling. Especially with gas prices these days. This led me to hoping that my local options were not shady or difficult to work with. Enter Tom, who wasted no time giving me a simple breakdown of what to expect for the inspection. He responded right away. I do not have experience dealing with many inspectors but Tom assured that he is well-diverse in his field, and proved it with a sample report. I did compare his report to others in the area and I liked the layout of his more. TH Inspection seemed a bit pricier than its competitors but I do not cheap out when it comes to analyzing details. I'm glad I went with my gut because Tom reported more plumbing issues than I had imagined, and noted all recommendations for every discrepancy. He even found a dead animal in the crawl space of the house! Brave man to say the least. I also was not present due to my work schedule, but had my realtor present with Tom. My realtor told me that he saw Tom looking through every nook and cranny, and spent his time making sure to note anything that was loose or sticking out when it wasn't supposed to. Lastly, Tom takes Zelle as his main form of payment. I understand it may prove as a challenge for some but I don't normally carry cash. Many millennials that I know seem to follow suit, and this can prove to be a lucrative method of handling house escrow drama without affecting your work schedule. I took care of my whole inspection and transaction through email, txt, and Zelle. All handled very professionally and documented in a very detailed report that I can hand to any contractor to fix my issues later on. Thanks for the help Tom!

I will never recommend Elite Group to any client who needs a home inspection in the future. No communication is just not acceptable to me or to my clients.

Michael was awesome! Very friendly, easy going, took his time as he walked us through a property we…read morewere interested in. His knowledge of construction and safety was stellar and made the entire process a breeze. In fact, he was the easiest part of the entire process of buying a house. A few other things: - He drove over 30 minutes to our location and didn't charge us an extra fee. - He was on time - He had a great attitude. Buying a house is stressful enough -- he put us at ease - He walked us through each issue on-site explaining what the problem was and how it can be fixed (even said how much it might be) - His report was easy to follow - He picked up the phone when we called after to walk us through a few questions we had on the report -- and didn't charge us for that You won't be disappointed if you work with Michael Kirby -- very, very nice guy, smart and knowledgeable.
