Given the housing market is cooling nowadays, if you're in the market, you are probably in a better position to negotiate an inspection on purchase. The 5-star consistent Yelp reviews don't lie. Vahn is great, and I highly recommend him! He knows his stuff and has many years of experience in construction, civil engineering and home inspections. He grew up in a household that's in construction and real estate. He quickly responds to the first request for information. However, you should be able to find all you need from the detailed breakdown of prices on his website. He spent four hours on our house and thoroughly explained the HVAC system, how all our equipment works, and how to maintain it through the seasons. Very patient with answering all my Q's because I know nothing about it. While our home is relatively new and within limited warranty, he did find some HVAC-related items, electrical panel and external areas to improve. What did we receive at the end? A detailed 45-page report (we had two HVAC systems) with 10+ recommendations and pictures. He even had diagrams of our electrical, heating and plumbing systems etc. All the model numbers of our equipment and home appliances were listed and submitted to notify us of any recalls on an ongoing basis. It was worth it for us to get the home inspection after purchase. We paid for the extended thermal scan of the home, but we didn't upgrade for the radon scan. However, it's only $30 to add on a radon scan if you want a quick check.

I called 2 days to confirm the timeline with Vahn for my house purchase agreement inspection…read moreneeds. (real estate home purchase is 5days condition offers with house inspection. ) When I try to contact the seller agent for the date and time that was given by Vahn is already too late. someone else has booked that time on line with Vahn. At first I was very upset when I called Vahn and he explained to me why is unavailable and he took the time to contact another inspector to help me. I will definitely recommend friends and family for Vahn service even I don't have a chance to have Vahn to be there for my home purchase at this home inspection, I will contact him for next house purchase. Thank you for the service recovery! Much appreciated!

Can't say enough good things about my experience working with ClearView:…read more - Making the appointment was easy, I actually sent them a message on Yelp and got a reply in less than an hour with the quote - Someone called me to confirm details and sends me an email with all I need beforehand - My appointment was with Tom, he arrived on time and ready to go - Tom explained the process thoroughly before the inspection and answered all my questions in details - Tom highlighted all the deficiencies in detail and we did a walk-through of the entire house outside, then inside - A detailed 60-page report was produced, that very evening - I cannot comprehend such a quick turnaround on such a large report with photos, analysis, recommendations, course of action, etc. - Their online platform to view, download and subsequently create a to-do list is something unheard of - Courtesy follow-up call the very next day to see if I need more help Long review but seriously, these guys are AMAZING at what they do. A home is one of the biggest purchase of your life, don't go for the cheap options, go for the quality. Having spent the money ended up saving me many many times over that on a reduced purchase price.

He provided us with photos, explanations and we especially loved how he rated the items which required the more timely mitigations so we could make a sound decision whether this 100 year old home was a good investment. We'd recommend his services to anyone!

You can definitely tell he is very experienced as well as honest. He did not hold back when he had his opinions on the condition of certain things in our home.

Jim was hired by the owner of the house to do a house inspection due to issues the renter was…read morehaving, primarily mold and mildew. Going downstairs (that was locked and renter was not allowed down) Jim walked around and made the comment "that's not mold" through a visual inspection. A drain hose from the furnace was leaking into a hole in the cement floor to which Jim states "that's up to code". The renter has the entire inspection recorded and this will be released on social media shortly. I have read other lower reviews and Jim makes a point to respond and defend. Well, this video will showcase the truth. No report was released to the renter. Jim clearly states through the video to the renter "if you don't like it then leave". Jim also sees mice droppings in the upstairs utility locked cabinet (which the renter cannot unlock as the owner will not allow). Jim shrugs his shoulders and ignores this. I would highly recommend to steer clear of Jim. I feel he is influenced by realtors. I feel he doesn't care and is not truthful. Stay tuned for the video to be released.
