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!
This was my first experience with Atlanta Property Inspections. Alex Sozonov was my inspector. Very oriented details and willing to explained all questions with professional knowledge. Report came into my email box late night. Clearly, it has been covered all details. Plus, show up on time.
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.
Frank Cooper and his team from Atlanta Property Inspections, Inc were excellent! They arrived on time and thoroughly inspected all areas of the property I was considering renting. They found things that needed to be repaired by the landlord before we signed the lease. Frank reviewed his findings with us. He explained all of his concerns, and he patiently answered all of our questions. Then the next day I received a very detailed report that included several pictures and detailed explanations. If you want a kind, knowledgeable, and thorough inspector, don’t hesitate to call Frank Cooper with Atlanta Property. I would highly recommend him! Truly a 5 star company!
Dustin is VERY Detailed Oriented and found items and suggestions on the home that I would have never thought of, the report provided very good insight on how to move forward with the sale of the home! The staff at API was great to work with!
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 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!
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!
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.

Choosing a new home can be a very challenging and intimidating process. After all, a house is one of the most important purchases that someone can make. Those who make the wrong decision could struggle with many problems in the years that follow. In addition, it can cost property owners a lot of cash to fix the issues they didn’t spot before signing their contract. A professional home inspection is one of the best ways to ensure that the property you buy is in top condition. The specialists at Atlanta Property Inspections provide reliable services for local residential and commercial property owners in Atlanta, Georgia, and surrounding metro area communities. Are you wondering whether hiring home inspectors is worth the effort? Keep reading for some information that can help you make the right choice.
Be an Active Participant in the House Hunting Process
When real estate agents, mortgage loan officers, and investors are negotiating terms and discussing the details, it’s easy to feel left behind by the process. The best way to ensure that you are getting exactly what you want is to remain part of the conversation from the very beginning. Make sure that you are clear about your expectations, and try not to let all the industry jargon being tossed around intimidate you. If you have any questions, ask them. If you’re worried about something, speak up. They have an obligation to make sure that you are aware of the condition of the home and that you know what you are getting before you commit.
There are a lot of factors to consider when purchasing a property. First, consider the average home price in the area. This could affect the long-term value and saleability of the house in the future. If you have a family, then the quality of the local school district and the location of nearby parks may weigh heavily in your decision. But, of course, the most important component of selecting the perfect home is the condition of the property itself. A few gallons of paint and new fixtures from Home Depot can make a house appear shiny and new on the surface. But, lurking underneath the drywall and floorboards could be a variety of health hazards and signs of damage. You need to be sure that the plumbing system, electrical wiring, HVAC unit, water heater, and other essential components are up to date and ready for action. Likewise, the presence of asbestos, lead paint, mold, and other hazards is a red flag.
While some issues can be spotted by potential buyers, the majority of problems usually lie hidden beneath the pretty decorative features. A professional home inspector will have the training, education, and hands-on experience required to notice the details that others would skip over. They will also provide you with a detailed report about the condition of key systems and structural components of the property so you can assess how much effort will be required to maintain the home after the sale is completed. Knowledge is power, and a quality inspection can give you the guidance you need to make the best decision.
Have you decided that hiring home inspectors is the right way to move forward? Then there’s no need to hesitate.
