What our clients and real estate professionals say

Used Mark a few times and he was excellent with my buyers and took time to explain and educate them.

I've used Mark for seven years now with dozens of properties. He always exceeds our expectations as a home inspector. As well, he is very knowledgeable and professional.

I am a Real Estate Agent and the property is in Modesto. I called several places and just got machines, but when I called The Inspector, their admin Jodi answered. I was able to schedule my home inspection for 2 days later! Plus they referred me to a roof inspector, sewer scope inspection, and a pest inspection all 4 within a 2 days span. Prices were very reasonable, great customer service, very helpful and most of all they made it easy for me to do my job and provide my clients with what they needed. Thank you Mark, Jodi, ad company!
