The Home Detective - established 1996

REALTOR REVIEWS


"As a realtor I want my clients to have a good, solid, and thorough home inspection. Robert at The Home Detective is exceptionally great at what he does. I myself have learned so much from him throughout the years of recommending him to clients. I love going to home inspections when he's performing them. He's so well informed and I somehow learn something new each and every time one of my clients has a home inspection with him. He knows just about everything there is to know about a home. Another reviewer mentioned that he checked all the nooks and crannies of their home, this made me laugh because it's so true. He checks every single component of a home, from all the plumbing elements; running appliances to ensure they are working properly; checking inside furnaces and electrical outlets and panel; inspecting attics and crawl spaces to driveways and garages; exterior grounds; decks and patios; and roofs and chimneys. This is a shortened general list of all that encompasses an inspection with The Home Detective. An inspection with Robert may take longer than others and this is what any home buyer should and will want. A home purchase is an important transaction and a significant investment, you definitely want someone to take the time needed to perform a thorough inspection. The maintenance tips and advice he gives are very helpful and useful. It helps you understand what you should do to keep your home in great shape and prevent potential future issues. He even gives tips on how to save when using air conditioning or heating systems; how to prevent plumbing issues; and what items you should keep in mind to repair or monitor after occupying the home. My clients are always so pleased with Robert, they end up thanking me for recommending him for their home inspection. If you want an informative and in-depth home inspection, I without a doubt highly recommend The Home Detective and will continue to use them for all future home inspections."   Nelia P.
