Home Inspection

After finding out that there were some damages to the house we agreed to purchase, we had to quickly find a very good inspector who could help assess the seriousness of the damage (+ more) asap.
After checking out many inspector’s reviews on Homestars, as I usually do, as well as many of Brent’s 680+ reviews from his happy customers + several TV programs he was featured in for home inspections and his advices for homeowners, I’ve decided to contact him (the only inspector I’ve contacted) to inquire him of the home inspection. I have to say, from the moment I talked to him on the phone to schedule an appointment with him, he was very friendly, courteous, professional, and accommodative. On the date of his inspection, he’s come to the house on time (about an hour distance from where he is), performed more than 2 hours of very thorough inspection of the house, and provided all the things/advices we’d need to be aware of about the damages and others around the house. While it hurts to find out from his inspection that the damage is more serious than we thought, we were certainly appreciative with Brent’s honest opinions of the damages from his expertise/professionalism/15+ years of experience and easy-to-approach personality. Furthermore, he even provided a very detailed inspection report with almost 120 pictures on the date he inspected house, not to mention his rate (especially him being one of the best in the industry, in my opinion) was definitely very reasonable. Needless to say, if I will ever require another inspection in the future, I will certainly not hesitate at all to contact Brent, and will also recommend him to anyone who will need a very reliable, professional inspector. Thank you very much again for everything, Brent!

Daniel, would you like a job as my marketing manager???!!! Ha! Thank you so much Daniel for taking the time to not only write me a review, but to write up such a kind one! I'm glad that you were happy with my inspection. I feel really bad for you and your family going through this absolute nonsense that the seller left you in. It should never be this way. At any rate, it looks like it's going to now be all addressed for you. I know it will make a wonderful home for you and you family. If you ever have any questions whatsoever Daniel I will always be more than happy to help you out. Thanks again Daniel, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!!!

Home Inspection

Brent was able to accommodate my request for a home inspection on short notice, literally the next evening (worked within our availability). Brent was extremely thorough in his inspection and his expertise, knowledge, and experience is clearly evident. Brent was helpful in providing solutions to potential problems or issues that may arise. I would strongly recommend Brent to anyone looking for a home inspector. I received the report and pictures of the next morning as promised. Thanks for everything Brent!

Home Inspection

Have known Brent for many years as I've moved around the city. Called him for another inspection on my recent purchase and he was there the next day with a complete top to bottom inspection that helped me with my purchase, and understanding what I need to do/fix right away as opposed to what could wait. In the era of no condition buying, I'd recommend getting a home inspector anyways to give yourself peace of mind, and Brent can help you with that.
Thanks!

Thank you so much Cyrus for taking the time to leave such a kind review! I really appreciate it. I'm glad to be of help with your investments (and I'm very appreciative for being your inspector). Yes, as exciting as a time as it is right now for homebuyers, it's also probably the most dangerous. People are spending hundreds of thousands, or better yet, over a million dollars for a property, yet don't get an inspection for the home. That's a gamble I can't believe people are willing to take. Even more amazing insurance companies would even allow it. Nonetheless that's the market we are in. Without sounding like a sales pitch here, you were wise to do so. If you have any questions whatsoever with that absolute gem of a home you just purchased, please feel free to contact me. Thanks again Cyrus, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Pre-purchase house inspection

I can't imagine having a better experience. Brent was careful, patient, and thorough. He was happy to share his knowledge with me and seemed genuinely interested in making sure I understood how the house works and what maintenance was needed and when. I received a full, detailed report on the inspection and a set of photos showing all the findings. I was able to make a confident house purchase. I'm really grateful that Brent was part of my home-buying journey. He certainly made it easier and more successful.

You know, I'm in my 15th year of doing home inspections, and for someone like yourself to tell me that you were happy with my services still makes me happy to hear that as if it was the first inspection I've ever done. I really means a lot to me. If you ever have any questions about the home always please feel free to contact me. All the best for now and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Brent was professional, thorough and courteous. He took me through the house and went over his inspection with me. He pointed out things that need repairing/replacing and a leaking pipe. I would recommend him and use him again in a heartbeat.
