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!

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!

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!

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!

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!

Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. was referred to us by our realtor for our home inspection. Our inspector was Cary Cooper. He really took the time to answer all of our questions about his findings. We didn't feel rushed or that any question was too silly. He gave us peace of mind with a few of our concerns and was honest, even if we weren't to thrilled with the news. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely use (and refer)  Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc. in the future for any inspection needs.

Atlanta property inspections gave me a very competitor quote and stuck to it for final pricing. They were able to get someone out to do the inspection so quickly. Frank and James were very thorough and helpful during the process they encouraged me to look at what they found, the good and bad, so I knew exactly what I am buying.  I couldn't have asked for a better inspection experience!

Lies You Can’t Tell When Selling Your Home

When advertising something, many sellers are used to using heightened wording; it’s very common and everyone expects it. Many sellers want the potential buyers to see the best of the house, and as a result, covering up certain flaws of the house might seem like a good opinion. However, being an open book about the condition of the house will save you from lots of stress in the future. That’s because there are certain defects that can create legal issues in the future and make you lose a client, especially after the home inspection in Duluth, GA. So, in this article, we will discuss some of the potential issues you should be absolutely clear about when you’re selling your home.

Water Damage

Water damage is an awful incidence many homeowners dread. As a result, many sellers are concerned that disclosing previous water damage may scare away potential buyers. If you don’t disclose this and it ends up being discovered on a home inspection, this will make you lose clients.

Termites

Getting rid of termites is a tiring experience for everyone. If your home has termites, you should get it treated before selling; if not, you should disclose this. Otherwise, the inspector in Atlanta, GA will find it, and you’ll find yourself in a bad position.

Lead-Based Paint

If your home was constructed before 1978, federal law compels you to disclose whether or not you are aware of the existence of lead-based paint. So, you will have to sign a form confirming whether or not you are aware of the existence of lead-based paint.

Electricity

Electricity issues aren’t simple problems you can just hide; they can be seriously hazardous. So, isclose any problems you are aware of, as well as information about repairs and maintenance.

Previous Insurance Claim

Buyers should be aware of any previous insurance claims you have made for damage to your home because reviewing the house’s history of repairs is important for a lot of people. 

Roof Leaks and Damage

You should declare any past roof leaks or damage. These are simple things you can fix, but in order to avoid a trust issue, you should be clear about this condition. 

Safe Neighbourhood

“This neighborhood is very safe” is a common white lie about the area that sellers like to say. However, neighborhood safety is one of the easiest things for potential buyers to learn on their own. So, in order to avoid breach of trust, avoid using this phrase if the neighborhood isn’t very safe.

Individual Systems

Remember that during an inspection, the main parts a home inspector looks at are the individual systems of your home, including the wiring, heating, plumbing, and HVAC system. So, make sure to disclose it if you've had any problems with these systems.

Natural Disasters

If your property is located in an area with recognized environmental risks and natural disasters like earthquakes, floodings, and hurricanes, you should also disclose this information because you don’t know whether the future buyers are familiar with the area.

Appliances

If you’re leaving your appliances with the home, make sure to mention even the small faults with them.

Mold

Because mold can cause major health problems, it is ethical for all sellers to be open about it even if there is no legal duty to do so.
