Atlanta Property Inspections came to do a pre-purchasing inspection on a home my husband and  I plan to buy! We had a very short due diligence period, but that was no issue for these guys. They fit us in their schedule on very short notice and were such a pleasure to work with. Cary and Riley came to do the inspection and did a fantastic job walking us through the inspection to let us know what they found, and suggestions on how to fix all of the issues! Shout out to Cary, for answering all of our questions and having such a great personality! We truly appreciate you guys taking the time to help us through such a very stressful time. We HIGHLY recommend this company!

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.

WOW! I can't even make this story up. In this very crazy market (June 2021) it seemingly takes 2 week closing (sometimes with *0* days due diligence!) to purchase a home. Anyway, Frank came recommended by another very reputable inspector, and I was fortunate he came!! The home we were looking at for my mother was a 1975 build and within 1 hour of the inspector being there a FIRE from an electrical panel broke out! Frank contained the fire, and was SO calm, had his team address the matter, was in touch with the agent and homeowner. He said in over 20+ years of him inspecting homes nothing like this had ever happened. Anyway the inspection was VERY thorough and Frank handled all matters very professionally. We will be working with Frank and his team on any home inspections in the future. I highly recommend!

Jeremy was the best to work with! He was on time,  very thorough in his explanations of his findings, and took time with my clients to make sure he answered all of their questions. He was detailed, and provided follow up when we needed additional questions answered. He went above and beyond! Best, quality, customer service I’ve seen in a long time! I’ll recommend him and Atlanta Property Inspections every time!

The inspector Frank came to our house to inspect the deck and provide a list of safety problems. While he was there we asked him to take a look at some termite damage in the attic.  When he went to the attic he spotted problems with a squirrel infestation requiring immediate action to correct for chewed wiring and unsanitary conditions.  We were unaware of this problem.  Frank provided a comprehensive inspection report in PDF format including multiple photos showing deck post deterioration, sagging joists and yes even a picture of the live squirrel in the attic. Frank is totally professional, knows his area of expertise very well and offers sound recommendations on how to correct problems without spending money for unnecessary improvements.  For example he told us the ledger board was in good shape and did not have to be replaced, only secured to the house wall with additional bolts. The small amount we paid for the inspection was well spent because the inspection will end up saving us money in the long run.

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 Deal Breakers | 5 Common Reasons Buyers Walk Away

Home inspection plays an unnoticed but crucial role in buying or selling a house. With this service, a buyer gets to know every defect of a house before permanently moving in. This allows them to compare different houses when making the final purchase decision. A seller can also use this service to their advantage. By noticing the problems in the house and acting towards fixing them, they can increase the value of their house. They can show potential buyers the issues in the home inspection report and how they fixed them. This will increase the buyer's confidence in the house. Unfortunately, there can be a couple of deal breakers that most sellers should be aware of. So, to inform you of these deal breakers and answer any questions you may have, we have prepared this guide for you. Call Atlanta Property Inspections today to learn more.

Foundation Problems

The foundation of a house supports the entire structure. A good foundation ensures that your home is prepared for certain weather conditions, preventing dangerous soil vapors from seeping into your home and the building from sinking into the ground. Due to a foundation's crucial role, buyers typically pay attention to the condition of this structure and see if it could cause problems for them in the future.

Roofing Problems

Roofing prevents you from directly facing the outside temperatures and weather conditions and provides a safe environment. A strong roof in good condition pulls anyone's attention right away. However, homeowners sometimes avoid looking over their roofs and gutters and eventually face problems like leaks and mold growth. This can also attract the attention of potential buyers and make it a deal-breaker point for them.

Electrical Problems

Electrical problems can be life-threatening. A homeowner must always look for outdated panels, defective wiring, overburdened circuit breakers, and other problems to prevent them from being a major deal breaker for the buyer.

Plumbing Problems

One thing homeowners hate to look at is plumbing problems. Plumbing problems often appear due to the accumulation of multiple issues over the years. Once the signs of these problems occur, it becomes a nightmare for the homeowner and a major deal breaker for the potential buyer. If you want to learn whether you have a plumbing problem, call professional home inspectors today.

Pest Problems

You might be surprised to find out that pests play as important a role as the systems mentioned above in a house. Pests make a home feel unsafe, and knowing they can damage the house is a significant deal breaker for many homeowners. The same goes for any rodents that may have been or are currently present in the house.

Atlanta Property Inspections

We have mentioned five deal breakers above. You may have seen that they all have a common connection: these are major systems or problems in a house. Identifying and fixing these problems is crucial for a homeowner to increase the value of their property and turn the deal breakers into dealmakers. If you want to learn more about a home inspection company that can help you do this, Atlanta Property Inspections has your back covered. Call us today to learn more about us and our services.
