Dustin was very knowledgeable and friendly and made my client feel confident in his explanations.  He was quick to point out the positives of the home he was inspecting.  His report was delivered within 18 hours of the inspection and had plenty of photos and very easy explanations in laymen's terms. I highly recommend 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!

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, 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.

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!

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.

Risks of Skipping a Home Inspection as a Buyer

If you are looking to buy a house, one thing you should never avoid is getting a home inspection. You have probably heard this phrase so many times. However, do we actually know the risks of not getting a home inspection? Well, many of us don’t. That’s why we are here to prevent it. Throughout this article, we will go through the safety risks of skipping home inspection, adding future repair costs, preventing negotiating points, and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help. So, let’s start learning.

Safety Risks For Skipping Home Inspection

There are so many homes right now that have safety issues. The modern methods of building the house don’t match the old houses that are being sold. We must identify and act accordingly to prevent these safety risks. To identify these problems, home inspection plays a crucial role. Many homes have been saved with this service. However, we are not only limited to safety reasons. There are many more. Let’s learn about them in the next section.

  • Adding Future Repair Costs

The purpose of the inspection is to identify which parts of the house are damaged or need to be replaced. In a house, if a part is damaged and no action is taken toward it, it can cause significant damage. By identifying the parts of the house which need action to be immediately taken, you can save yourself more headaches than you can ever imagine. If you get a home inspection before buying a house, you can use the report from home inspectors to have the homeowner replace those parts. Let’s learn more about ways we can use the report for negotiation.

  • Preventing Negotiating Points

Using the report given by a home inspection service, you can do a lot of things. One of the most important things as a buyer is to use it as a way to negotiate. Seeing the things that need to be repaired or replaced and asking the homeowner to decrease the price according to the things listed in the report. This will help you to pay less and prevent overpaying. In addition, you will have a house that is better-taken care of and presented. However, to get all the benefits listed above, you need a trustworthy inspection service. But where can you find one?
