Haystack Home Inspections

Chris was able to do an inspection on a couple days notice to ensure I had one done before I removed subjects on my offer to purchase. He showed up on time to the site, was very thorough and polite with the building manager who took us to the maintenance areas of the condo. I was present for the entire inspection, so he pointed out what he was looking for and what he found. He answered any questions I had. It took about 2 hours for a 870 sq ft condo. When he was finished, he summarized the main problem areas and he sent his official report with photos the same evening. His report was easy to ready with red, yellow and green coding to highlight areas that needed immediate repair or items of safety concern. I ended up not purchasing the unit and it was because I had doubts about its condition and saved myself the frustration of having to do repairs right away. I thank Chris for his attention to detail and the quality of his work, he did not rush. He ensured that I understood what was faulty and how easily or not, things could be repaired. I would recommend him for anyone who needs an inspection. He is objective and followed up with me by phone a week later to see what my decision was; and it was the inspection that was the deciding factor. At first glance, this unit looked fine, but Chris found all the flaws. I recommend buyers don't skip this step in any offer.
