We had the privilege to work with Brian 5 months ago and his incredible work, professional…read moredemeanor, and detailed inspection report has left a lasting impression. We found a house in Los Angeles that we were interested in and reached out to Brian to see if he services the area. Brian responded within minutes! He provided a quote and his availability in the first conversation. He answered all our questions including additional requests to inspect a pool and to test for mold. We clearly understood all his services and pricing before committing. Brian is a straight shooter and gets to the point. I gave Brian our agent's information and was pleasantly surprised that he connected with the agent without my involvement. Brian was on-time to the scheduled appointment for the inspection. He got straight to business. We thought that we had to be there for the inspection because I've heard horror stories of inspectors speeding through the inspection and missing details. But not with Brian. Brian handles business! He inspected EVERYTHING, in and around the house. He categorized his findings from most concerning like the house being slanted to minor details like there being cracks on the driveways. Brian inspected everything.. from cracked paint, to pipes, to wires, leaks, nothing was missed. Brian went under the house and into the attic. Brian took his time and gave us the most detailed inspection and report! After his extensive inspection, Brian was able to explain his findings in simple terms to us. We asked for his opinions on a number of items. He is extremely knowledgeable, no bs, all facts. We got the report on the same day to review digitally. We asked for additional mold testing and was provided the mold report and results a couple days after. Brian saved us from making a million-dollar mistake. I truly believe that without Brian, we would've purchased a house that looked good on paper without knowing that the core was in disrepair. Brian brought everything about the house to light with his inspection. He gave us power in understanding the house's true condition and we ultimately made the decision to not purchase. We are so thankful to have worked with Brian and look forward to working with him again. If you are looking for the most thorough, detailed-oriented, focused, eagle-eyed, professional, prompt, knowledgeable, smart house inspector.. call Brian! Brian is also a dog person and let us bring our corgi puppies along. Literally the best inspector.

Kudos to Phillip-- he is a true asset to the Elite Group team!!

Rated F on the Better Business Bureau--and honestly, that tells you everything you need to know…read more They don't seem too concerned about reviews, probably because most of their business comes through real estate agents. I made the mistake of trusting mine when she recommended them for my condo inspection... lesson learned. The water heater didn't even work, yet somehow the inspector missed it--so I spent my first three weeks bonding with cold showers. The warranty company wouldn't cover it since the issue existed before I moved in. On top of that, I had to replace both toilets right away. Somehow they missed that too. Of course, when I contacted them, they denied any responsibility and took zero accountability for their mistakes. All in all, I would definitely not recommend them, especially if they're being suggested by your real estate agent.

Incredible service! I called Home Inspection Experts desperate to get a same day inspection and…read morethey were able to accommodate me. I was purchasing an older home in Long Beach and I was worried that I was making a bad decision but there just isn't that many homes for sale in the area where I want to live. These guys were fast and efficient and totally professional and the inspector showed up early, gave an amazing summary at the end of the inspection and explained every little detail including significant findings I needed to be aware of right away. I received a very detailed report loaded with pictures and recommendations that clearly laid out everything I needed to know from basic maintenance to urgent safety issues. I was able to move forward with my home purchase with a much better understanding of exactly what I needed to budget for as well as which items were more urgent that could be negotiated with the sellers for repair. If you want a solid inspection that will put your mind at ease hire this company. Not to mention the fact that the entire staff is very professional, kind and organized. I would use them again and again on a future purchase! Thank you Home Inspection Experts you guys deserve 10 stars!!!

We brought Mike in for a post-purchase inspection after discovering a number of issues our original inspector missed and wanted to be sure nothing else had been overlooked. Mike devoted his entire day to inspecting the property and then spent two hours with us going through his report, patiently answering every question, and offering thoughtful suggestions. I have to say, it is extremely rare to find someone with this level of work ethic and dedication to their craft. You can tell Mike truly loves what he does. If you're looking for peace of mind and want to know the exact condition of your home, you will not be disappointed. Mike truly sets the bar for what one should expect in a home inspection. A heartfelt thanks, Mike.

Mike might charge you double the other guys, but he is totally worth it!…read more He only does one inspection a day (which also means it can be tricky to get him!), which allows him to check every nook and cranny of the home in question. He doesn't shy away from doing the hard stuff, like going on rooftops or crawling under very tight crawlspaces. He gave us actionable items that we will be using to make sure that if he's still around when we sell our home and a seller hires him, he won't have much to say His detailed report was so good that when I hired specialist inspectors (like electrical and structural) due to issues he noted, they either trusted his report at face value and just gave me a quote for the repair or incorporated his findings and pictures into their reports! Plus, he brings snacks and drinks for you to munch on! Don't hesitate to hire him, he's worth every single penny!!

He was extremely thorough and truly left no stone unturned. He found issues that other inspectors could have easily overlooked, and those findings ended up helping me secure a sizable credit from the seller during negotiations. That alone made the inspection worth every penny. We did the full home inspection, main sewer line camera inspection, and mold inspection. Everything was handled professionally, and all reports, photos, and follow-up information were returned quickly and in a very timely manner, which was huge since real estate timelines move fast. He also explained everything clearly and made the process feel a lot less stressful. He was referred to me by someone I trust, and now I understand why. I'll definitely be recommending Brandon and Unique Home Inspections to friends, family, and anyone buying a home. If you want someone honest, detailed, and looking out for your best interests, he's a great choice!

We were purchasing a new property and needed an inspection of the home and sewer. After…read moreresearching several inspection firms, we ultimately decided to go with Elias at CR Home Inspections due to the reviews describing him as one of the most thorough professionals in the business. And indeed he was! Elias met us on an expedited schedule and he worked promptly with a deep attention to detail. He identified every little issue and gave us an extreme amount of comfort. He even fended off an annoying seller agent that ambushed him towards the end of his inspection and tried to get information on Elias' findings before he even discussed with the client (me). In summary, Elias is the best in the business and is a man of strong integrity. I highly recommend him and definitely would work with him again.

I was looking to buy a property in the OC and found Elias with 5 stars. Honestly, I'm pretty…read moreskeptical about that stuff but I needed the inspection ASAP and he was the first to reply and schedule. Sadly, he scheduled the wrong day and my agent went to the property and basically wasted the trip there since we had to reschedule to the next day. For me this wasn't a big deal since I didn't go out myself, but I felt bad that my agent wasted his time. Elias was very apologetic and even bought my agent a gift card as an apology. He totally owned up to his mistake and for me that speaks volumes about a person. The actual inspection was pretty good as far as I can tell, I'm not an expert on these kinds of things but the report was very detailed and had a lot of photos. He flew a drone up to the roof to take a look and even pointed out minor details like staining on the carpet that I honestly didn't catch when I saw the property myself. Seems like he used infrared to check for water leaks when inspecting the plumbing in the bathrooms and kitchen. In terms of pricing, he was one of the more expensive options but given the level of customer service he provided and the quality of the report I would say it's worth it. Overall, the experience with Elias was very positive and if I ever need inspection services again, he'll be the first I call.

He talks a lot about how mold is everywhere and grid to minimize because I think he's used to all the crazy worries we all have - so understand that's where he's coming from when he almost excessively tried to calm your fears. We had a substantial roof leak with mold in walls - all handled very well and professionally and nowhere nearly as expensive as it could have been. You won't regret calling him. Genuine good person. Hope he doesn't change.

Before starting, he clearly explained what he would be inspecting and how long the inspection would take, which really helped set expectations. He immediately got to work and pointed out several things that were not working properly as he went along. At the end of the inspection, he took the time to go over everything he inspected, explaining what needed minor repairs and what should be updated to better protect and safeguard my mother's property. Kevin also let me know that he would be sending detailed documents with all the photos he took during the inspection, which was very reassuring and helpful. Overall, I was very impressed with his professionalism and thoroughness. I highly recommend Elite Group and especially Kevin Salazar if you're looking for a reliable home inspection.
