Inspector Randy missed viable items on the home inspection that ended up costing us a nightmare at closing. Report was unorganized and items of concern were missed. Inspector could improve on his communication skills as well. Would NOT recommend. If I could give no stars, I would. read more

Lifesavers!! The best part of our homeownership process. This team was so professional and personable, consistently precise in giving information. Their website goes over everything they inspect, and is very informative. Ruth Ann answered all of my questions directly, and made concise suggestions through Thumbtack messenger. She invested thought into what would be good alternatives for rectifying our concerns. She was very genuine in helping us with local recommendations for other specialty services. She responded to questions within 1-2 hours. She was able to place an appointment for us within the next 5 days and holiday weekend, I commend them for making this happen!!! Randy and RA rolled into location early, and surprised us with SWAG!! They saw problems we would not have seen. They were even able to open a lodged door and thoroughly inspected the sheds and workshop. They took at most 2.5 hours for inspection. Their photographic memory is on point, they walked through without a notebook, so we were more impressed. Once the inspection was completed they gave a summary and answered questions. Randy and Ruth Ann listed solutions for problems by giving us an in depth explanation as to why the issues occurred and how to cost efficiently fix them. We obtained a sound piece of mind and a heads up on what we should focus on when we move in. We chose payment onsite. This included an awesomely affordable inspection rate + travel cost. The written report was completed before the week was over. The presentation is very impressive and easy to follow. The report is set in file tabs. The photos are clearly labeled, arrows are used to point specific details. Our auntie, who has a government background, was impressed at how superior GSI's report layout is. GSI went far beyond our expectations. The knowledge Ruth Ann and Randy imparted on us in the process was invaluable. Their professionalism and amiability has us forever grateful for their services!! ^_^ read more

Called by Randy Vranken of Gold Star Inspection through Angie. Wanting home inspection of house I was to purchase. Older mobile home with original furnace. My main concern was the furnace. Which I made clear to Randy. September 29th Randy p/u keys to the home from owner. House is vacant. Randy came back said to owner the furnace doesn't work. When I got in town, owner and I went to property. Furnace started right up. Called Randy several times to two different numbers. No answer , left messages. No reply. On October 14th I got a call from Randy's Mom? Wanting payment. For What? Job wasn't done. Mom began arguing with me . Bad idea, thanks, may God bless, good bye. read more

I've had a number of inspections done in past properties. The inspection by Gold Star Inspections was the best. Randy and Ruth Ann are a phenomenal team. I was impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care they put into every step of their inspection. The report itself was excellent, covering all issues and providing photos that will help get everything repaired and up to code. Our realtor was also impressed. Gold Star also went above and beyond in making sure we understood which issues were most concerning and what the causes may be. Highly recommend. read more

The written report is comprehensive and will be used to repair or replace the areas of need. Their professional training was evident in their attention to detail and demeanor. I appreciated them answering my questions in a respectful and informative manner as well as giving me information I didn't know I needed before their inspection. I recommend Gold Star Inspections. read more
