Abe is, without question, an exceptional home inspector. He is incredibly smart, thorough, and…read moredeeply knowledgeable, catching issues that others would have missed or never told me. His expertise ultimately saved me from purchasing what would have been a disaster home, and I am so grateful for his honesty and sharp attention to detail. Beyond his professional skill, Abe is compassionate, accommodating, and truly cares about his clients. He even adjusted his schedule to work with mine and took the time to explain everything clearly and patiently. His care and concern went well beyond the typical scope of an inspection. On top of all that, he has a wonderful personality that makes the entire process feel comfortable and reassuring. If you want a brilliant, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home inspector, Abe is absolutely fabulous. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

As a first time homebuyer, I didn't know what to expect nor how to compare inspection services. But…read moreafter one phone call to Abe, I was pretty set and confident on Abe's Home Inspection Services. Over the phone, he was able to answer all of my queries and gave me a quick run-down of all the different services they provide and an accurate quote for an inspection on the house. He was also able to answer all of my "what-if" questions and ease my nerves by giving me a step-by-step on what to expect. Although my window for inspection was only 7 days, he was also able to squeeze me in for an inspection and got me my report within 3 days! I'm super grateful for that. On the day of the inspection, Abe and Nick let me join in on the process and even encouraged me to take my own notes. Every step of the way was a learning process for me and I gained a ton of new knowledge on structural info, safety, energy saving tips and more on the house. Abe gave me a packet and some goodie bags. The retractable tape measure with sticky notes and pen is really cool. He also put in some candy if you're feeling peckish, some hand sanitizer, flashlight and bandaids--all super useful stuff. Folder includes info packets, and even a final walk through checklist. He'd really thought of everything. Overall, I highly recommend Abe. His inspection gave me valuable insight on the house, and most importantly I gained a peace of mind. It's definitely worth the price!

He was especially helpful regarding some issues with the exterior of the home which I had not noticed myself. Ultimately, primarily for reasons outside of the ones that came up in inspection, we decided not to buy the home, and True View was able to give us partial refunds for the radon and lead tests we ordered as we would not be needing them. We will definitely be contacting Bill again for the next home we need to inspect, and I'll go in with a better eye for some of the things to look out for during our search.

When you try to close on a house moving swiftly is key. Nick understands this and does his best to accommodate your needs. I got an inspection appointment within two days and the inspection report on the same day as the inspection itself - this is just phenomenal! Nick has a vast experience in the construction business himself and is ever so kind to patiently answer all your questions or give valuable recommendations and maintenance suggestions. I cannot say enough good things about this skilled and pleasant inspector and started recommending his services to everyone in my family and neighborhood who might need a home inspection. Once again thank you Nick for a highly professional and reliable service and your patience in answering all my questions. (Will crosspost because such a good service deserves to be promoted).

Sven is simply the greatest home inspector that you can possibly hire. As first time home buyers,…read morewe had a decent idea of the home we wanted to purchase. Most home buyers spend maybe 30 minutes to an hour maybe 1.5 hours at a property. Sven invested four hours of his time at the property and found over 148 issues with a property that we thought was close to turnkey. He also offered a discount with our next inspection. It is hard to overstate how professional he is and how much he cares about his craft. You would be incredible lucky to work with Sven and his team. They are honest, thorough and will teach you so much about home inspection even if you've been through the process several times. It's important to know that there's a range in price for home inspectors, but you are indeed buying a home. Sven's prices are extraordinarily fair for what he offers.

I had an inspection done years ago when I bought my first…read moresingle family home in this area. Should have known better than to go with a real estate agents recommendation. The reason they like inspectors like this is they are not deal killers and rubber stamp most houses they inspect. I dont review a lot on Yelp but since your home is likely your most expensive purchase I figured I would try to warn people of potential problems if you dont know what to look for. 1) Demand they take the covers off the boiler or furnace & look inside. There could be cracks in the castings the inspector wont see..Granite did not do this. 2) A good inspector will have the potential buyer follow them around the house to explain & point out potential problems. This did not happen. It was more of a race to the finish. 3) If the house has a septic tank, demand that they at least open the cover. We ended up finding out the tank was completely deteriorated because it was steel which will rust after being in the ground for 40 years. 4) Was told sump pump was installed when the house was built. How would he know? Found not to be true since there was a document found after our closing that indicated foundation repair work only 10 years prior. I can say he did a Radon test in the basement with a laptop to display real time data so that was a positive. The lack of a detailed inspection resulted in a new boiler purchase, septic tank & fields, and a not to code vented chimney for the boiler. Those are big ticket fixes that we could have negotiated a lower purchase price for the house. If u ask would I hire him again? Not a chance. Dont be like myself & learn the hard way...Interview the inspector your going to hire & have them describe to you exactly what they plan to do.
