Kudos to Phillip-- he is a true asset to the Elite Group team!!

Rated F on the Better Business Bureau--and honestly, that tells you everything you need to know…read more They don't seem too concerned about reviews, probably because most of their business comes through real estate agents. I made the mistake of trusting mine when she recommended them for my condo inspection... lesson learned. The water heater didn't even work, yet somehow the inspector missed it--so I spent my first three weeks bonding with cold showers. The warranty company wouldn't cover it since the issue existed before I moved in. On top of that, I had to replace both toilets right away. Somehow they missed that too. Of course, when I contacted them, they denied any responsibility and took zero accountability for their mistakes. All in all, I would definitely not recommend them, especially if they're being suggested by your real estate agent.

Everything was explained clearly and consistently, and he took the time to point out even the small details while helping us understand what to expect with the property in the future.

Thank you again!

We hired Brian for a home inspection and found the experience extremely disappointing. The…read moreinspection was completed in under one hour, which felt brief for the scope of a full home inspection. The appointment time was changed from the originally scheduled time, and we were not offered much flexibility to accommodate our schedule. When we asked about California regulations for thermostat placement, we were advised to use "ChatGPT" for the information and were not given a specific code reference or handbook. When we requested official sources, we were told that it was "not required," which left us unclear on the actual standard. After the inspection, we personally identified additional issues that were not noted in the report, which further reduced our confidence in the thoroughness of the service. Based on our experience, we do not feel this service provided good value for the price and would not choose to use this inspector again.

I used Unique Home Inspections and specifically worked with Brandon for a home I'm currently…read morepurchasing, and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. He was extremely thorough and truly left no stone unturned. He found issues that other inspectors could have easily overlooked, and those findings ended up helping me secure a sizable credit from the seller during negotiations. That alone made the inspection worth every penny. We did the full home inspection, main sewer line camera inspection, and mold inspection. Everything was handled professionally, and all reports, photos, and follow-up information were returned quickly and in a very timely manner, which was huge since real estate timelines move fast. He also explained everything clearly and made the process feel a lot less stressful. He was referred to me by someone I trust, and now I understand why. I'll definitely be recommending Brandon and Unique Home Inspections to friends, family, and anyone buying a home. If you want someone honest, detailed, and looking out for your best interests, he's a great choice!

He talks a lot about how mold is everywhere and grid to minimize because I think he's used to all the crazy worries we all have - so understand that's where he's coming from when he almost excessively tried to calm your fears. We had a substantial roof leak with mold in walls - all handled very well and professionally and nowhere nearly as expensive as it could have been. You won't regret calling him. Genuine good person. Hope he doesn't change.

We were purchasing a new property and needed an inspection of the home and sewer. After…read moreresearching several inspection firms, we ultimately decided to go with Elias at CR Home Inspections due to the reviews describing him as one of the most thorough professionals in the business. And indeed he was! Elias met us on an expedited schedule and he worked promptly with a deep attention to detail. He identified every little issue and gave us an extreme amount of comfort. He even fended off an annoying seller agent that ambushed him towards the end of his inspection and tried to get information on Elias' findings before he even discussed with the client (me). In summary, Elias is the best in the business and is a man of strong integrity. I highly recommend him and definitely would work with him again.

I was looking to buy a property in the OC and found Elias with 5 stars. Honestly, I'm pretty…read moreskeptical about that stuff but I needed the inspection ASAP and he was the first to reply and schedule. Sadly, he scheduled the wrong day and my agent went to the property and basically wasted the trip there since we had to reschedule to the next day. For me this wasn't a big deal since I didn't go out myself, but I felt bad that my agent wasted his time. Elias was very apologetic and even bought my agent a gift card as an apology. He totally owned up to his mistake and for me that speaks volumes about a person. The actual inspection was pretty good as far as I can tell, I'm not an expert on these kinds of things but the report was very detailed and had a lot of photos. He flew a drone up to the roof to take a look and even pointed out minor details like staining on the carpet that I honestly didn't catch when I saw the property myself. Seems like he used infrared to check for water leaks when inspecting the plumbing in the bathrooms and kitchen. In terms of pricing, he was one of the more expensive options but given the level of customer service he provided and the quality of the report I would say it's worth it. Overall, the experience with Elias was very positive and if I ever need inspection services again, he'll be the first I call.

Before starting, he clearly explained what he would be inspecting and how long the inspection would take, which really helped set expectations. He immediately got to work and pointed out several things that were not working properly as he went along. At the end of the inspection, he took the time to go over everything he inspected, explaining what needed minor repairs and what should be updated to better protect and safeguard my mother's property. Kevin also let me know that he would be sending detailed documents with all the photos he took during the inspection, which was very reassuring and helpful. Overall, I was very impressed with his professionalism and thoroughness. I highly recommend Elite Group and especially Kevin Salazar if you're looking for a reliable home inspection.
