My husband and I bought quite a large house very quickly in a neighbourhood where there are very few sales. We made the decision the same day we saw the house and I was terrified that we had bought a potential money pit. Brent came so highly recommended on this site, I e-mailed him to set up an appointment on very short notice. He was very prompt and curtious in responding and arrived at the house early. He did an amazingly thorough job for such a large house (3100 sq feet plus finished basement). He answered all my questions and identified all the potentially expensive problems - luckily not many - and all the ones that are minor and more esthetic. He pointed out some of the easy fixes to ensure that outside water infiltration is dealt with. The real estate agent was impressed as well and will be speaking with the owner to see if we can get some financial concessions to make some repairs prior to closing. I am extremely pleased and have a large load off my shoulders since it seems we made a good buy with this house. I would recommend Brent. If she leaves the deer head, I'll let you know.

Thank you so much for the review and kind words Irene! A beauty of a home in Brampton! At least I thought it was. Yes, as you will read here and in other comments that I have made, I try and make it an experience. A home inspection is not just some guy (or lady) going in to find a bunch of problems with a home. It's someone going in to help you understand the home. There will be good things with it, bad things with it, and somewhere in between. The home inspectors goal should be to have you understand everything. I'm glad that I was of help! Please, let me know if the dears head is available. Who doesn't need a dears head on their wall! ;-) Thanks Irene, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!
