Brandon did my home inspection. He explained everything he found very thoroughly. He got us our report the next morning since we had a time crunch of when we could submit negotiations by from the home inspection. We were able to get credits towards the closing costs after the home inspection.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring home inspectors Leo and Anthony, and I cannot say enough good things about their service! From start to finish, they delivered an outstanding experience that exceeded all my expectations. They started off our inspection on time. Despite the expectation, the inspection kept on demanding more of their time due to the size of the property and the nature of issues. Their thorough 4-hour inspection of the home left no stone unturned. They meticulously examined every nook and cranny, leaving me with the confidence that I was making a well-informed decision about my investment. Leo and Anthony's attention to detail was truly impressive, and their knowledge and expertise in the field were evident throughout the process. But what truly stood out was their professionalism and energy. Despite the lengthy inspection, they maintained a positive and enthusiastic attitude, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. They patiently answered all my questions and took the time to explain their findings in a way that was easy to understand for me as a first-time home buyer. Their passion for their work shone through, and it was evident that they genuinely cared about their clients and the quality of their service. I felt like I was in great hands, and that kind of reassurance is priceless when it comes to such an important decision. Thanks to Leo and Anthony's exceptional work, I now have a comprehensive understanding of the property I am purchasing, which gives me peace of mind as I move forward with making a decision in the process. One another thing to call out is their work on the report. It was extremely detailed and thoroughly summarized and organized across sections so that the owner can easily estimate the issues around the different types of problems. It was very detailed yet understandable by layman with clean images and references. If you're in need of a home inspection, look no further than Leo and Anthony. Their professionalism, energy, and commitment to excellence are second to none. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a top-notch home inspection service. I'm committing to sign up with them for my lifetime when in need of a home inspection. Thank you, Leo and Anthony, for your outstanding work!
