My new home to be is 30+ years old and required a thorough home inspection. My expectation was an inspector who simply took notes and didn't say much, after all, the report woudl provide that information. Alan conducted the home inspection with myself and my agent tagging along. Once he realized that neither of us had much idea of what does what inside a house, he adjusted and not only explained in detail what issues needed to be solved, but why they needed to be solved. The inspection was not only informative but educational, interesting and enjoyable. Alan's attitude was friendly and he has a great sense of humour. Not only did myself and my agent enjoy the inspection, so did the owners of the house. This is extremely important in any inspection or audit as auditees tend to become defensive if they feel their space is being dissected. This was not the case and the home owners were completely at ease. All in all a very good experience in all respects and I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone I know.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $360.00
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- Find a home inspector with whom you can engage in conversation to ensure you understand what is happening. Ask questions even if they seem ridiculous. Most home owners know very little about what they are getting into and an inspector who is understanding of that and willing to explain, is a must-have.
