I am so glad that I called Halcyon. They found things that the pest didn't and things I wouldn't have looked for, more importantly, they found the root of many of the pest report items and had pictures, descriptions and the answer to what needed to be done to correct those issues; so that I had a solid understanding of the scope of work required and as a result (after a few phone calls) cost estimates.. all of this saved me over $100k at closing.. and more, gave me a plan for what needed to be done so I'd have no surprises down the road Suffice it to say, I am recommending you call them!

Then I remembered the great experiences I had had with the Buena Vista company in the past in my role as a REALTOR®. To my great luck, when I called I was delighted to find they had an appointment the following day as they had had a cancellation. Dave Hindmarsh arrived at the exact appointment time. He is polite, patient, and obviously knowledgeable about inspection and lender requirements. He went about his work, inspecting the main residence and an associated cottage, and sat with me for a discussion of his findings all well within a 2-hour timeframe. Dave's inspection was thorough and his recommendations were spot-on. Call the Buena Vista Company. You won't regret it!

We had him inspect a few different buildings and he was very systematic. The report was very thorough and clearly outlined (with pictures) exactly what was wrong and where. He caught issues that even someone who's worked in construction for a long time didn't notice. After his inspection, he spent a significant amount of time to answer all the questions we had and show us his findings (including being willing to get into the crawl space again!!!), including sharing suggestions that will save us time and money. This was all above and beyond what we've experienced in the past with other inspectors. As buyers, we were really impressed by Seth and thankful that we picked the right person for our home inspection!

Not only did he get us the report printed out the same day, he was genuinely confident that he left no stone unturned. He went under the home, in the attic, on the roof, and checked everything in between. He came prepared with shoe covers, a tyvec suit, ladder and orange gloves. The amount of pictures that we received made us sure that the inspection was full proof and clearly visualized/pictured any damages or things needing fixed. We truly wanted to leave him an outstanding review for the confidence that he has given us with the forever home we are choosing. It is always scary moving into a new place not knowing the true condition of everything. Thank you, Tony for the full amount of peace of mind. Also, another big thanks for having us pay close attention to our daughter while the ladder was out. Great work, WOULD DEFINITELY REFER TONY TO ALL FRIENDS AND FAMILY
