True Vision home inspections did an amazing job on my buyer's home inspection of a 42-year-old townhouse. Their inspector Jerry went above and beyond with the inspection, answering a ton of questions and not being bothered at all when I asked to accompany him.
As this was my first time doing a home inspection, I ended up contracting with two different companies in order to have a comparison and more confidence that they found the big/important issues.
While the other company did a good job with their inspection, it was both shorter and less detailed than what Jerry performed. True Vision's inspection found important issues that the other company missed. For instance, while both companies made notes that the electrical panel was outdated and needed to be replaced, True Vision and Jerry opened the faceplate of the panel and found that the breakers were mismatched and that one of the wires showed signs of charring. This information was valuable when it came to the inspection objections I sent to the sellers. There were three or four other examples of Jerry inspecting things in more detail and finding issues that the other company did not or was not allowed to check.
Scheduling the inspection with True Vision was simple, and they were able to get someone out with just a two-day notice (tight contract deadlines). The report was provided the following morning and contained a ton of detail. Hundreds of photos of not just the issues that were found, but all of the things that were working correctly as well. There was also a lot of descriptive information in the report and I could tell that many of the items were typed up and added directly by Jerry, as opposed to more general, boilerplate descriptions. The report also had a nice and completely free feature that allowed you to go through each item and mark it as acceptable, repair, replace, and add any custom notes. At the end you could generate a request list that was easy to print and reference when submitting any objections.
I would 100% recommend True Vision and Jerry to anyone wanting a home inspection done. read more
