"Had JS Appraisals appraise my house for a VA loan. James Reported that the house had not been updated for 15+ years. The house just had a new lifetime roof installed days before the appraisal. Also new counter tops in kitchen and bathroom. Complete repaint inside and out within three years. HVAC and Water Heater replaced 5 years ago. New carpet 3 years ago. Would not recommend."

Offering Home inspection, mold testing and real estate representative services. Quality, not cost should be your biggest concern when shopping for a home inspector, if you are looking for the cheapest then you may be disappointed with us. If you are looking a thorough inspector, who has your best interests as our main concern then give us a call. We don’t rush through your inspection to get to the next one like some of our competitors will. We are an independent licensed home inspection provider, which means you can guarantee a 100% honest and thorough inspection. We have you, the buyer's, best interests at hand and you can count on us to not over look items or include confusing language to “sugar coat” even the most petty findings. As a buyer you should be prepared and understand that every inspection performed will have deficiencies found, and no house will be perfect. But it is our duty as home inspectors to make you aware of ALL of the findings. We will categorize the deficiencies found but will let you decide what is your biggest concern. We have several companies that can provide radon or mold testing if necessary, both of which we use and trust. We offer home inspection services 7 days a week by appointment only. Please have a look in the photo gallery for sample screen shots of portions of our reports. We accept cash, Chase Quickpay, PayPal, credit cards (2.75% service charge) and personal checks, payment is due at the time of the inspection. I also provide real estate sales services and am associated with Real 1 Realty. With this service I can provide a home evaluation to your listing at no charge to you, please inquire in regards to these services.

"Vito is extremely thorough and goes over everything with you in detail. You can tell he has been doing this for a very long time and knows everything about home inspection"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

While it's smart to save up about 25 percent of the price of a home—to cover the down payment and closing costs—many loans require between less than 3% down to qualify. In either case, you'll need between 3 and 6 percent for the closing and moving costs as well as a strong financial history for mortgage approval.

Yes, wood floors are among the most desirable flooring options, and most homebuyers are willing to pay more for homes with high-quality wood floors installed. Wood floors are relatively easy to repair, maintain, and clean, and buyers may pay a premium for the convenience and natural beauty of wood floors, especially if they’re new or in good condition. You can reasonably expect a return on investment of around 75% or more when you upgrade to wood floors, depending on the quality and type of wood.

Gather details of recent improvements, property documents, and any previous appraisals or inspections.

Yes, Colonial homes are generally a good investment. Most home buyers who are interested in this style love its simple yet functional interior and charming exterior. Plus, if you keep up with its maintenance, some homebuyers are more willing to purchase a traditional home without the common issues found in older homes.

Carports can actually increase property value. It often only increases the value by a few %, but the value can increase if you design your carport thoughtfully and with an eye for utility. For instance, a carport with storage space or a workshop will be more valuable than one without it.
