MVP Home Inspections

(15 reviews)

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.

Very thorough, professional and friendly. He was truly knowledgeable and took the time to go over…read moreeverything before leaving. I received photos of issues to discuss with my realtor so in turn, he could take it to the buyer. All-in-All, I would definitely request his service when purchasing property.

Mike saved my family from making a possible financially destructive mistake. We moved on from 1…read moreoffer and onto a much stronger, quality house. Mike was reasonably priced once you walkthrough with him and see the due diligence he puts into his job. He educates along the way, and is extremely responsive. Your search for a quality inspector should stop here.

Without this guy, it's possible that in the year 2030 I'd be huddled up in blankets in the corner…read moreof my "dream" condo, writing checks to settle a lawsuit from the previous month's balcony collapse, brushing off droplets of water dripping from the leaky ceiling, and dodging my unsecured dishwasher lurching across the floor towards me just as the rotted truss beneath the floor collapses and sends me crashing onto the floor of my downstairs neighbor's waterlogged unit. 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."
