Thermal Imagining Review
My goal is to provide my clients with a detailed yet easy to understand inspection report and be available to answer all their questions. My clients can call me anytime and I also offer a home management subscription complete with referred professionals to assist with future repairs and maintenance.
Meeting new people, agents and being a part of the home buying process is a great feeling. As a licensed home inspector I need to continue to educate myself and I am always learning new things about new building technology. Getting to inspect different types of homes and get to know all of the neighborhoods and suburbs is always an adventure!

Erich did an amazing job with the inspection and his report was very detailed and easy to understand. He added a lot of pictures along with explanation and suggestions for further evaluation. I have worked with a couple of other inspectors previously and his work was by far the most professional. Not only that, he was very prompt with his responses before AND AFTER the inspection as well. He took the time to clear all my questions. Definitely recommend to all investors and home buyers.

They did a very thorough job of inspecting the condo I was purchasing. This included going up on the roof to inspect my air conditioning unit. I would highly recommend them.

Great experience, explained everything we had questions about. Saved us money as we were able to negotiate some repairs that we did not know were needed and saved us a lot. Thank you
