Thorough knowledge of items addressed in report. Home inspector was able to communicate any issues found with buyer and help explain the different items and their severity.
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!
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.
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!
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.
Dustin was absolutely amazing. He did such a thorough job and was super friendly and helpful in explaining everything to me as a first-time homeowner. Highly recommend this company! Very timely and professional throughout the entire process as well!
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.
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 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.

When someone tries to buy or sell a property, the buyer and the seller must provide disclosures to the other party as the laws require. Failing to do this and having a case regarding this in the future can result in legal problems. To inform everyone more about property disclosure, we gathered some information. Throughout this article, we will go over the common disclosures that every person should pay attention to and how Atlanta Property Inspection can help.
Some disclosure requirements and laws are different in different states. One of these laws is death in the home. If a person dies due to natural causes, suicides, or accidents that are unrelated to the property, a seller doesn’t have to disclose the information. However, if the death is related to crimes or due to the condition of the house, the information has to be disclosed.
One of the disclosures that almost every state requires is the repair history of a house. This is also a very important way to know the condition of a house and be able to take action. Some states, like Texas, require structural repairs, and to the outside, looks must be reported. For example, any repairs to the roof, fences, foundation, floor, sidewalks, electrical and plumbing system, and fault lines must be reported.
Water Damage
Water damage is important because it can result in health hazards, personal possession damage, mold growth, and movement of the home’s structure and foundation. The damage a water can do to a house is unimaginable. In states like Michigan, the seller is required to disclose any damage that has been done by water. This can be leaks, damage from floods, water in the basement, and much more. Many problems, like water damage, can result in hazards. Let’s go over more of them in the next section.
Some states require sellers to disclose information about the presence of toxic and hazardous items. These can range from items containing asbestos, lead-based paint, toxic waste, and many more. This is to protect the buyers from mindlessly buying a house. Other actions like having a property in flood and having structures containing asbestos, fuel, oil, and other substances leaked on the property also require it to be disclosed.
Lastly, some states like Texas require the seller to disclose information about the list of items a house contains and their condition. If, when you move into a house, you don’t see any items that should be on the list, this can be used for legal procedures. You can also talk about the items that you want to be contained in the house in advance by the homeowner.
