Have used Atlanta Property Inspections several times for my buyers.  Their team is always very thorough and educational for the new home owners.  Much information is shared about past/current codes, potential issues and how to have the issues repaired.  I will continue to use Atlanta Property Inspectors for future inspections, and my clients have been very happy with their services as well!

I would like to recommend Brandon for his excellent job during the inspection. He is very professional, thorough and is an expert in his field. I enjoyed his partnership during inspection, the knowledge he shared of the risks of certain issues was incredible. I am very glad that he inspected the house for us and wishing him more success in future.

My client used the company for their home inspection during their due diligence period. Jeremy and his partner were very kind and accommodating with answering questions. The report was very thorough and I like that they also note positive things about the homes in their report as well and not just what's wrong with the house. You can read the good and the bad.

The inspector was really thorough and was patient in explaining to me what he was observing. He showed me where the shutoff valve was for the water and gave recommendations on various things. The report that was provided made sense and pictures were taken of some things that were found. The inspector was also very personable which put me at ease about asking questions. Thank you, Alex and Atlanta Property Inspections!

I called several companies for quotes, and I felt that Atlanta Property Inspections was the most welcoming!  Thereafter, I had a wonderful experience at the inspection. My inspector was thorough, kind, and willing to explain things and answer my questions on site.  He was very knowledgeable and very friendly.  I am glad I did not skip the inspection for this 950 square foot condo, and the review has been very helpful, during my due diligence period in evaluating this potential home.

We are relocating from out of state and we were in need of an inspection with a very tight turn around. We received incredibly thorough reporting and an availability to answer questions quickly. Cary Cooper’s professional and expert insight saved us from a potential health hazard. I would very much recommend Atlanta Property Inspection for any of your inspection needs!

This was our first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections, Frank Cooper was the lead inspector and he was inspecting a new construction one bedroom plus den in Alpharetta for a buyer client of ours. The inspection report was both detailed and comprehensive. We have tried out a few premium home inspection companies over the past year, looking for a good additional inspection resource, and based on our experience with Frank Cooper, I think we have found it.

Home Inspection Checklist

An inspection service has many benefits. However, many homeowners don’t know much about the general process and how they can benefit from it. So, to inform everyone, we have gathered some information. Throughout this article, we will go through what home inspectors look for, what to expect from a home inspection as a buyer and a seller, how much inspection costs, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s start.

What Do Home Inspectors Look For?

An inspector looks at a few items based on the recommendations and guidelines of the American Society of Home Inspectors. Let’s learn about them in this section:

  1. Roof: It is important to check whether there are leaks or empty spaces near the roof.
  2. Walls, Ceilings, and Floors: Checking the general condition of the walls, ceilings, and floors will allow the inspector to get a general idea about the house's condition and see if there are any problems here.
  3. Plumbing & Electrical Systems: Whether you are selling or buying the house, inspecting these systems plays a crucial role.
  4. Insulation: If air or water is easily flowing inside a house, the insulation system must be fixed. Otherwise, it will be way more costly for the homeowners.
  5. Air Conditioning: Air conditioning is a big part of American houses. If there is no AC, there is a big problem with heating. Home inspectors look to see the condition of the AC and give a report about it. Contact Atlanta Property Inspection today to learn what our experienced home inspectors check in a regular inspection.

What Should You Expect From A Home Inspection As A Seller And A Buyer?

There are benefits to getting a home inspection for both the seller and the buyer. As a seller, getting a home inspection can provide you easy access to the items you need to take action on to increase the value of your property. For example, if you are a seller, you can use the report given by the inspector to fix some of the major problems quickly. If you want to sell your property, you can explain the parts you fixed and charge more money. If you don’t want to sell your property, you would have items in your house that are in better condition for you to live on. As a buyer, you can use the report given by the inspector to identify the parts of the house that need to be repaired or replaced. With this information, you can change your mind or negotiate with the owner to lower the price.

How Much Does A Home Inspection Cost?

Home inspection prices can vary depending on the service that gives it, how deep they inspect your house, the location, age, and size of your house, and many more. However, a normal inspection can range from $300-$450. If you would like to know how much home inspection costs for a professional service, contact Atlanta Property Inspection.
