hired this firm to inspect my home. They were so incompetent I had to pay another company to do it again, as my insurance company said they had no idea what they were doing read more

I've used Alfonso 3x and will only recommend him to my friends and family. He's detailed and price reasonable.

This is a con arrest who find stuff wrong with house that are read well over half price just to get the inside buyer bigger discount. Basically on our 80k home luster at 34k the buyer said he would pay 32k but this guy did a inspection and it got reduced to 29k then 31k. Basically it should of went in price but works with Amy miller to scam. read more

Alfonso is efficient, and has no problems answering questions that you may have. I know many people who have used him, and I'm glad to have gone with him for our home inspection. read more

Alfonso was a gem. He arrived early enough to start the exterior inspection before we could get into the house that we're considering buying. He was polite, present, professional, and thorough. His focus was admirable, especially considering all the questions we peppered him with; and he educated us without either us feeling like we were getting a boilerplate lecture. He clearly cares about his work and takes pride (rightfully so) in treating every customer respectfully. We won't be big time home buyers, but I will recommend Alfonso's services to anyone who ever needs a house, condo, or apartment inspected. Great guy and service well-worth paying for. read more

What a money saver!!! Alfonso, walked me thru my home inspection and saved me thousands! It was such a pleasure working with him. read more

Highly Recommend! A+ Outstanding! Professional, honest, thorough and diligent in providing critical elements that I wouldn't of identified. I am so very grateful to have selected Alfonso, and will use his business again. He is reliable and on time, perfect from beginning to end of inspection. I arrived 15 minutes late due to unexpected traffic and he was patience and understanding. Alfonso pinpointed areas I would of never discovered which is the most important part of the real estate transaction and disclosure. I received my comprehensive home inspection report the next day. read more

In my 8 years as a Realtor I have come across many Inspector's, but Alfonso bar none is the most professional, courteous and knowledgeable I've ever had the pleasure of working with. He makes my clients (most of which are first time buyers)feel at ease. He's always on time which is a rarity these days and his knowledge of inside/outside of the home is detailed & his eye misses nothing. I highly recommend him! Linda M. @ Coldwell Banker read more

Highly recommend this inspector! Got a contractor to come up with estimates based off the inspection report and managed to get thousands from the seller split between a price deduction and closing credit. Alfonso is thorough and explains the different issues he saw. Used his service in June 2016. read more

I have been working with Alfonso for weeks on trying to hold an appointment for a home inspection, due to many cancellations by the seller. Alfonso has not only demonstrated patience and flexibility but he has also proven to be full of knowledge and professionalism upon first meet. Because of Alfonso I have potentially saved a substantial amount of money, avoiding a deal that full of hazardous issues. He is thorough in his inspection and is not overpriced. I will definitely use Alfonso for future inspections and I highly recommend him for anyone who is looking to get a home inspected. Thank you Alfonso! read more

My fiance and I are in the process of purchasing our first home, Alfonso from A. Advanced Inspection came highly recommend by our real estate agent and we could not be more pleased with his services. Alfonso was very thorough with his work and explained everything in detail. He was very knowledgeable and made sure all of our questions were answered. He provided the inspection report the following morning with thorough detail and pictures for our lawyers and the seller. We highly recommend A. Advanced Home Inspections! read more

So i used Alfonso for a home inspection for a house i bought in the end of 2020. I trusted him to point out all the problems in the home being that I was a first time home buyer. Now that i've lived in the house for about a year now. My roof is leaking every time there is heavy rain and my basement flooded with about 4-5 inches of water !! The sellers actually told me to have the inspector look for where water might be coming in through. When i told him to inspect the basement he said there was not problem & that the water must have came in years ago !! I mean how can an inspector miss a bad roof and water seepage !! I mean that's the whole point of hiring an inspector ! smh So I would not recommend him as an inspector because he may cost you THOUSANDS of dollars in repairs like i have. read more

PLEASE think twice before using A Advanced inspection. As many other Yelp reviews said, his reports are misleading and inaccurate. I have to wonder if Alfonso is aware of how an inspection report should be prepared and what is actual job as a home inspector entails. His reports states that critical information is addressed in red type. His reports will be mostly in red- even for basic, general information that has nothing to do with the actual inspection itself. This causes panic and misunderstanding in the buyer. Alfanso listed cosmetic details under "critical". There is nothing critical about chipping paint in a coat closet but Alfanso will list it as critical on the report anyways. Alfanso's unprofessionalism, ineptness, and misleading information caused a perfectly good deal to fall through. While he may be cheaper in price compared to other inspectors, what you see if what you get. Avoid at all costs. read more

Alfonso is very rude, unprofessional and racist. I suggest you think twice before contacting them. He was very unmannered and spoke rudely and with an attitude. He asked if I was Bengali and then mentioned how he hated Bengali people. He ended the phone without any closure and I had to call back to only hear another rude response. What he did was absolutely wrong. read more

This guy is crazy !!!! He comes out for inspection and makes stupid claims like there's an oil tank underground. He didn't even do a sweep !!! How can you see what's underground's without doing a proper test. I didn't know people working at advanced home inspection had X-ray vision. This guy cost me a sale because he scared the buyer by making stupid claims. Now I had a sweep done for oil take the house never had an oil tank!!! These guys are stupid stay away!!! This guys whole objective is to make ridiculous claims and make you search for a different home so you can use his services again and again. Don't hire this idiot!!! Hire someone more educated. This guy complained about a crack in a drive way !!! Are you kidding literally this crack is 3 inches long. read more

I guess if they don't have much to report they make thing up, Alfonso reported that the wood frame in my house "show moisture stains and damage"..what a joke ..that was me stripping the wood in the door frame to give it a vintage rustic look ... I would love to speak to him to embarrass him, obviously he can't tell the difference between damage and shabby chic look...he needs to go back to school read more

I've worked with Alphonso (twice) thus far. He's provided me with very good service and was recommended to me by a very good friend. I'm not quite sure why someone would say Alphonso is racist. I'm a Black woman who didn't only trust his service once, but twice and will do in the near future. read more

Stay away!!!! This guy makes up things as he goes along. I'm even questioning if he actually inspected the correct house. Half of his report was written in red, which in his report states are critical items. For instance, he stated that the front door was separating from the jamb and needs immediate repair by a contractor. Turns out there were two screws that needed to be tightened, problem solved. He also claimed that the shower walls had missing grout, loose tiles and soft spots. Totally false!!! The entire shower was inspected independently and there were no loose tiles, missing grout or soft spots. He also claimed that there was mold throughout the home. Upon independent inspection, no mold was discovered. I could go on and on with his misstatements. He caused a very nice family to back out of a sale due to his unprofessionalism and deceptive and misleading statements. He also had the buyers contact an environmental contractor to give an estimate on getting some of the items "taken care of". The contractor gave an outrageous estimate without ever setting foot on the property. Must be a friend,,,,, Once again, stay away from this guy. read more

Alfonso is outstanding. Thorough, objective and meticulous. He is also incredibly efficient. If you need your home inspected Alfonso is the person to hire. I would not trust anyone else. Thank you Alfonso!!! read more

I am a local Realtor and Alfonso has been an integral part of my team from the first property sale. I have always recommended him to my clients (many of which are first time home buyers) because he is thorough, courteous, always on time, and his demeanor puts my clients at ease. His knowledge and experience is second to none and I have confidence each and every time that he will provide my clients with a thorough, comprehensive inspection of their potential new home. It is so important to work with a team of professionals who you trust will represent your client's best interests, and Alfonso always delivers. read more

What a waste of money, do yourself a favor find someone else or do it yourself. Alfonzo put so little time into our inspection and his report which he probably did in 5 minutes was worthless. It was mostly cut and paste information on basic home upkeep probably from his app he purchased on line. What a joke. for the outside shower he wrote that he could not check it because the water was not on and that we should contact a plumber to see if water is working!!!! What the hell did I spend $400 on you mean he couldn't turn the water on and check it himself. All Alfonzo (Captain Obvious) did is what anyone could do open windows, flush toilets and ran water in sinks and showers. I had just had an home inspection done on my primary residence and the report that I received from that home made Alonzo's report look like a third graders book report, very little information and just a lot of form print that had nothing to do with our property. I wished that home inspector could have worked in New Jersey. Instead I pissed away $400 to Alfonzo. read more
