At the end, he walked us through everything verbally before sending the written report, which was extremely helpful. He explained what really mattered, what was more routine, and what we should keep an eye on, all in plain language. That conversation alone made the whole inspection feel much less stressful. Joe was also very flexible and accommodating with our tight schedule, which we really appreciated. When the written report came through, it was thorough, clear, and matched exactly what he had already explained to us in person. On the scheduling side, Christina was fantastic. She was professional, responsive, and quick to follow up. Coordinating the inspection was smooth and efficient, even with a compressed timeline, and communication was clear every step of the way. Overall, we had a really positive experience with First Choice Inspectors. Between Joe's knowledge and communication and Christina's excellent coordination, everything felt well organized and well handled. We'd absolutely recommend them and would happily work with them again.

I have hired an inspector who has been working with a real estate agent, and I just can't trust the inspector's work because I had a lot of issues after purchase a house.

Thanks a lot, and keep up the great work! I will definitely use CHI again if needed.

Eric specializes in window insulation so he gave us a lot of helpful tips on windows and care. Gary was also very helpful in explaining electrical box and regular routine maintenance for home so things last longer. Overall we were happy with the inspection I even told Gary and Eric I was going to give them 5 stars but then they ran into a problem with their software. The inspection was done on Saturday but we didn't get the report until Tuesday. During that time our realtor and lawyer kept asking for the report and we kept asking them for our report. Their team was responsive and they apologized for the delay. The inspection was good but because of the software issue and delay in getting the report, I took a star off.

When inspecting the house we live in now my wife and I appreciated his keen attention to detail. There were issues with the house that would have been very costly to us in the future that were found in the inspection. I truly believe that nothing can slip by Mr. Kopp's keen eye. If there's something there, however small he'd be the man to find it. He got the job done at a very good rate as well. We genuinely felt that he is a very authentic and all around stand-up guy who treated all parties involved with respect and care. His documentation was detailed but easy to follow for a layman like myself. I am not usually one to go online and write reviews, but our experience with him was quite remarkable. He saved us thousands of dollars so I had to let other people know. Hope he helps you secure the place of your dreams like he did for us.

We found Jeremy and his…read moreteam to be very thorough and were sure to show us any areas of concern and explain them on the spot so there wouldn't be any surprises once we received the report. The report itself was very clear and thorough, and I appreciated that the priority areas were summarized together at the front of the report. This made it so easy for us to review and determine what was a big concern to us (or not). Jeremy was great answering any questions we had during the inspection and super responsive to any questions after we received the report. We opted to do a few of the add on services (sewer scope, mold, radon), and Jeremy coordinated everything seamlessly. Would absolutely use their services again!

Joseph Konopacki and his company Insight Property Services are guilty of gross negligence. They…read moreperformed inspection of my house in La Grange Park in August 2024. Their inspection failed to identify the following problems: 1. A significant smell during the running of the two furnaces was deemed to be normal, and the furnaces were reported to be functioning well. However, an inspection by Precision HVAC identified that both furnaces were cracked and at risk of carbon monoxide leaks which could be lethal. Precision turned off the gas to prevent the carbon monoxide leak from causing harm. A second HVAC company (ABC) confirmed the cracks and mentioned that it was unsafe to continue to use the furnaces. They also suggested replacement of both the furnaces. 2. The sump pump battery was described as follows: "There is a battery backup system which appears functional and is charging." However, there had been no recent rain in the previous 3 days (per the report). When a plumber from ABC inspected the battery, he found that the backup battery system was swollen and nonfunctional. It was "charging" because there was no output to the battery. The battery was swollen and at risk for explosion or rupture, per the plumber's report. The backup sump pump was turned off due to the risks. Perma-Seal confirmed the problem and replaced it. The purpose of a home inspection is to make sure that the home is safe for its inhabitants. Joseph Konopacki and Insight Property Services failed these basic requirements and should lose their license for gross negligence.

We had these guys come out a few weeks ago just because we were about to purchase a home and I was…read morechecking out the home inspectors near me. The positives I will say is that Russ was very responsive from the moment we inquired about him and set things up and communicating with him. He'll even show up on time unlike most people nowadays. Russ did his job fine but me and my wife on site felt like he was not checking out other things that we noticed that were worth noting, picturing or documented so I could have a way to possibly get the owner to fix it before I purchase. All in all, Russ is friendly , his prices are fair and you'll learn a great thing or two from him personally which are great but just be vigilant to find and point out your issues and ask questions to make sure it can be documented.

Lack of attention to details, inept, mishandled paperwork, that's what you will get. Seemed to only…read morehave general knowledge that your dad or Uncle can probably address more pertinent issues. You might be better off watching a few YouTube videos then doing your own inspection. They missed 2 active infestations, Mud daubers (wasps) in the side attic. Carpenter ants in the basement. Both which we found about a month after we moved in, on our own. The exterminator said that had the inspector looked, there was no way to miss that they had been active for quite a while. I could maybe let the wasps slide, you would have to pay attention to general details to find it. The carpenter ants we found after cleaning. Had they looked at the joists in the basement they would never have missed the 2 spots. He also missed the flashing around the exhaust for the heat and fireplace while on the roof, had to have that repaired the 1st year we were in the house. Then there was the wood above the entrance that had it's own damage from the carpenter ants that needed to fully be replaced. He will point out some minor things, outlets in the bathroom, missing window cranks/ broken gear in window. Gutters needing more hangers... To top it off his assistant (wife) tried to turn us into collections for non payment, when I called and paid the day after the inspection. We emailed them the credit card receipt, and was I was right. That that kind of mistake doesn't often happen, and they would update their records. He couldn't even own that one and say they were sorry. I'm sure they would have excuses for everything they miss, and blame the homeowner or God. I highly recommend finding someone else or brush up on YouTube, you can only have better results. The one star is warranted, this has to do with your home. Good luck, and congratulations on your upcoming purchase.

Absolutely outstanding. I just moved into a new construction…read morecustom home in which the build / builder was a disaster. Any concern brought up, I was either gaslit , ignored or the builder didn't follow through either b/c he forgot or didn't care ( who can say ? ). After two agonizing years, i finally moved in yet was brimming with questions that could only be answered by a respected 3rd party expert. I knew there were areas of the house that were not constructed properly yet having been gaslight so many times, I was confused on what all was defective vs. normal. Big thank you to Mark w/ Domicile, who was my Lead Inspector. Mark carries decades of experience in which I found him to be fair, firm, patient and very educative. Shout out to him for answering ALL of my questions (there were many). Mark's report was very thorough in which I can now focus on areas that need to be addressed. To anyone out there building a custom home, don't make the same mistake I did in waiting until after your move in / final occupancy to book Domicile. Very important! Thank you Domicile/ Mark.
