Having retired from real estate & the construction industry it was refreshing to have a home inspection performed by someone with such a high level of competence. The biggest investment of your life deserves to be taken seriously and Kevin absolutely respects that and displays great attention to detail. Even more important is his ability to communicate complex ideas in a manner that anyone can comprehend. He has my highest level of respect for his knowledge, attention to details, and the clear photographic and verbal communication of all pertinent factors to be considered in the purchase of your next home. Before you buy I strongly suggest a home inspection. If you are looking for a good home inspector then Kevin is a great choice. read more

We are selling our rental property, JDA Home Inspection was recommended by our agent. We have not received our inspection report yet but I wanted to say that Kevin, the owner, of JDA Home Inspections was a pleasure to work with. Kevin was on time and did a very thorough inspection pointing things out to me along the way. Kevin had to check the inside of our rental property the roofs and under the house (raised foundation) not complaining once. This inspection was for three separate houses on the same property so this ment that Kevin had to move around quite a bit to get the job done. I highly recommend JDA Home Inspections because of Kevin's work ethic, thoroughness, and his willingness to keep his clients informed along the way. I also think that Kevin's price for the inspection and for the amount of work that he did was more than fair. read more

John has helped us with several inspections for the homes we have purchased throughout Ventura County. He was extremely detailed in his report and wonderful to work with on all three homes. JDA is the only inspector I would recommend to friends and family. read more

As a first-time home buyer I highly recommend JDA Home Inspection! Not knowing much about inspections, I can tell you that these guys are very thorough! Juan was amazing! After he was done doing the initial inspection on the mobile home, he gave me a full run-through of everything that needed to be replaced or fixed. He let me know what things needed to be done right away. I never knew something like this was so easy, the whole entire experience was wonderful. He arrived on time and met with my real estate agent, he went through the entire mobile home and even underneath it to check for earthquake bracing, stability and any other problems like leaks or termites. He was very detailed when it came to all of the specifics I needed to know. He did a walk-through with me, my agent and even the seller, detailing everything we needed to know, what needed to be fixed and the priority levels. Not sure the standard amount of time for an inspection but ours was a little over two and a half hours. Aside from their customer service being phenomenal and super easy to work with, they present themselves well, come with all needed gear for the inspection and come with a pleasant demeanor. For our square footage the price was very reasonable, compared to the rest of the companies that I had looked into before deciding on JDA, their reviews were top-notch and their pricing competitive. For my 1200 sq ft mobile home, it was only $300! Juan answered all of the questions that I had at the end of the inspection and even throughout the inspection. Exceptional service, top notch and I would recommend them to anyone in need of an Inspection! Go with these guys, not the rest. They are surely, the Best! :-) thank you Juan! read more

If you are looking for an inspection company to produce an accurate and reliable report, this is not a company to use. Their inspectors don't know code requirements nor how to operator home equipment especially if you have a smart home. After speaking with the owner, John, he refused to take accountability and agree to retrain his staff. They are not an Accredited Real Estate Inspection Associate in the state. The owner John claimed that they have an International Home Inspection Certificate, but he refused to share specific information like a certification number. read more

Top notch home inspection. I called around and I couldn't be happier with my decision to go with JDA. I have asked several people about their home inspection and they said mine was far superior. John Fleener leaves no stone unturned. His report is very detailed and easy to read with photos included. This is what you want to make sure you know exactly what you are buying. JDA shows up on time and is very professional. John even brought drinks and snacks for everyone knowing that the process takes 2-3 hours. I would recommend this company to everyone looking for a home inspector. Pricing is not too low and not too high, but just right. With JDA you get what you pay for. You get your report in 24 hours, or less. Mine was less. Choose JDA and you will not be disappointed. read more

As a realtor in Ventura County I often arrange for home inspections to be done as well as review the results. My first choice is always JDA. Great people, thorough inspections and comprehensive reports. What I like best about them is they are on time and always willing to meet with clients after the inspection to answer questions. Friendly, knowledgable, and accommodating, what more could you ask for!! read more

BE WARNED!!! They are not certified nor accredited. Report is false and misleading. Things that they were unable to test due to their incompetency, they indicated in the report as "need repair" when it fact it was working. They lack knowledge of building code. The verbiage used in the was very negative and damaging. Even things that were normal wear N tear, that were not damaged nor broken were listed on the report. Hello? It's not a brand new construction home! Idiot! One would expect home inspection company to be fair, honest, and to help educate the public but not this one. AGENTS: stay away from this one if you want escrow to close. I have buy and sell many properties but have never seen such false/misleading report as this one. read more

John did a fantastic job with our home inspection. He conducted a meticulous inspection, explained each item in great detail and clarity, and answered all of our questions. He clearly knows his trade very well and I would certainly recommend him to anyone needing a home inspection. read more

John did an inspection for us yesterday. He is very thorough and friendly. After his inspection he walked us through his findings and sent us a very detailed report with pictures. It gives me peace of mind knowing what we are taking on! Thanks John! read more

I recently purchased a home and John of JDA Home Inspection performed the inspection. First off, due to the current COVID-19 situation and the shortened inspection contingency period, I was very concerned about not only getting a quality inspection but getting an inspection at all. My realtor recommended JDA Home Inspection and now I will be personally recommending them to all my family and friends. While John had to take all the required precautions to inspect the home during this pandemic, it in no way took away from the thoroughness of his inspection. After John completed his inspection, he toured me through the entire property to highlight all the major points of his inspection and then (the same day) emailed me a comprehensive report that I will continue to use as I update and renovate the home in the future. Truly grateful for John providing exceptional home inspection services and on such short notice. Thanks John! read more

My husband and I are in the process of purchasing a 1920's craftsman style home and had so many concerns about what were getting ourselves into. With so many inspection companies out there, we didn't know where to start when picking an inspector. Ultimately, we asked a very trusted colleague, who recommended us to hire John. We did NOT regret it! He was not only early (he was already starting to inspect the exterior when we arrived five minutes early), but was working extremely hard the whole 3+ hours he was there. We received a previous inspection report that had been done a few weeks prior by another prospective buyer and when we compared that to John's report, it was night and day!! John's report was not only longer, but also 100% more thorough. The thing we most appreciated was how John examined the ENTIRE crawl space under our house and provided clear pictures and detailed descriptions of what he saw. The other inspection report was mostly cosmetic and barely scratched the surface of the stuff John picked up on. From plumbing to electrical, he gave us information on all of it, which will help us to know what we are getting into with buying an old house. After completing his inspection, John walked us through the whole house and pointed out the most important findings. We would highly recommend him, especially after comparing his work to another inspector's work. To top it off, he is very approachable and professional. He is the type of ethical individual that you want inspecting your home! read more

Hello, I just had HDA out to inspect a home I am purchasing in Simi Valley. I have had home Inspections before with other homes I have purchased but none as complete and accurate as Kevin with HDA. He did a GREAT job. He went in, over and under this house, he's not afraid to get dirty like many home inspectors are. Also great color photos that make it very simple to understand all the items that need attention. I will definitely use there services in the future. read more

Extremely happy with the service! We were recommended by a friend and would recommend to anyone looking for a home inspector. JDA was able to schedule us quickly during the COVID pandemic. John wore gloves, a mask, and shoe covers to maintain safety. I really appreciated that! He physically walked us through each section of the inspection, showed us the location of each issue, and gave suggestions on fixing it. He let us know if the issue was urgent or could wait on repair. The written inspection was emailed to us and the realtor in the same day. The written inspection was more detailed than expected. It even contains pictures with arrows pointing to the specific location of the issue being discussed. Very reasonable price as well. read more

John is a GREAT Home Inspector. He has done several jobs for me and all my clients love him. He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is happy. He even brings snacks and refreshments. His reports are always back within 24 hours and he is ALWAYS early. I highly recommend him. read more

John is the most thorough inspector I have ever seen without scaring clients. He is realistic and explains things to clients VERY well!!! I trust John and his entire team, they are truly professionals! His reports are delivered within 24 hours and are easy to read and understand!!! We love JDA home Inspections! read more

I paid these guys twice to look at a home for me. Not at all impressed with the service I received. The last inspection I got from them failed to mention the issues with the toilets, the leaks at the water main line and they didn't even give me the discount I was promised for giving him repeat business within 30 days. Meh, use them if you must but the experience could have gone a whole lot better. read more

John was amazing today at our first every home inspection. My husband and I are new to the home buying process and were very nervous about the inspection. Not only was he reasonably priced, but super thorough and answered each and every question we had. He was early and instantly introduced himself and explained what he would be doing. He made sure to do an entire walkthrough with us after he completed his inspection and showed us EVERYTHING good and bad. I was very impressed with him. He had a way of being informative yet reassuring throughout the whole process. Highly recommended! read more

I work with JDA on a regular basis they are outstanding individuals with a strong work ethic and an abundance of integrity. I would recommend them anytime. read more

The Best Home Inspectors around! I use this company on almost every transaction. I ask for Juan every time! He takes his time through the whole inspection and goes over everything with the client once he has completed the inspection. The last time he spent over a hour walking my clients through the property and going over the inspection. JDA ALL THE WAY! read more

JDA is very thorough. Drinks and snacks were provided by for realtors, residents, and future buyers. Well explained walk through scans reports were issued the same day. No other inspection company and been this awesome. read more

Great Home Inspector!!! Very professional and punctual. He walked us through the house after he was done to show us what he found. We received the report within 24 hours of the inspection (which was very fast). The report was detailed and very easy to read. We were 100% satisfied with the services of JDA. My husband and I will be referring JDA Home Inspection to anyone who is buying a home or needs a home inspection. Very competitive price as well!!! Very happy and satisfied with JDA. read more

I highly recommend JDA Home Inspection! I am in the process of purchasing a manufactured (mobile) home in Simi Valley. Kevin arrived early and was ready to work. He even brought snacks! The inspection was very thorough. Kevin checked on top, inside and underneath the home. He explained everything after the inspection and the inspection report was emailed to me the next morning. Thank you! read more

JDA was so thorough, informative, and helpful (and he even brought snacks!). Arrived early, and answered any and all questions we had. We really appreciated his service and will totally recommend him to friends and family! read more

I got John's name from a close friend who spoke very highly of him. He did a great job! Very thorough and saved me from buying a home with major issues I could not see. I am using him again on my next home inspection and highly recommend him. His inspection report was great, very detailed and I received it the same day the inspection was done. read more

Detailed and complete. John was thorough and his knowledge of inspecting a house to code was excellent. He inspected a large house for us, over 4700 sf, in an orderly manner keeping detailed notes and photos of all issues. He worked thoroughly and quickly covering all parts of the house necessary in this type of inspection. He was helpful as well as personable, and on final walk through with him he explained the issues he found with the house, and in his report there were over 150 issues, some minor, some larger. He provided an invaluable list of contractors with his report because I had asked for recommendations. He also provided all paperwork and additional reports in my preferred pdf format which is helpful in keeping all my house documents together. The inspection report is easy to read with many photos and descriptions and a summary at the end. A very orderly, attractive report. His inspection and reports are exemplary - the best. He was a recommendation from our realtor, Doug Kubiske, both of these people are fair and excellent. read more

Phenomenal home inspector! Couldn't have asked for a more detailed inspection.

I received an home inspection report from this company. After paying for additional inspections on the roof, plumbing, etc., I found out that there were no broken tiles and the water meter was working just fine. I would never use this company. read more
