- What sets me apart from other top inspectors is rather than spending 2-1/2 to 3 hrs. merely documenting the home's structure, systems, and components, and identifying deficiencies and potential problems; I focus upon teaching you about the home. Yes, it will be me, not a (surprise) employee, who will be serving you. Rather than simply enabling you to make informed decisions regarding your contract to purchase, I am enabling you to understand the specifics of your future home, which thereby enable me to teach you how to operate its systems most efficiently, reduce your energy costs, and how to maintain your home and protect your investment. You needn’t ask if you can accompany me and ask questions — I will arrive about an hour before you to set up my program, and document exterior conditions. Upon your arrival we will enter, conduct a detailed orientation, then inspect the home together. During which I’ll explain everything and answer any questions you may have. When we’ve completed inspecting, we’ll review the draft of the upcoming report, so you’ll know what issues will be in the report before we leave. Please be prepared to spent 4 hours with me. Why hire an inspector whose services merely meet Licensing and Certification minimum requirements which focus only upon protecting your contractual needs by identifying deficiencies and concerns? When for the same investment, you can participate in an LBI Education Inspection which in addition to providing you with a more comprehensive report, also teaches you all about the property, answers your questions, and provides a report created to serve as an informative manual similar to what is in the glove box of your vehicle.

"Beyond impressed by the knowledge Mark brings to the table when inspecting an older home. We spent 8 hours learning about a home we were looking to purchase; and with a gimlet eye inspection, he was honest with the concerns of the home, and was incredibly thorough with teaching you how that home was functioning. What was safe, what wasn't and more. HIGHLY RECOMMEND his services. It's a TON of information and your head will be swimming, but at the end you WILL know your answer. "

"Ditanyan Sye is an extraordinary educator who's truly passionate about teaching. I'm so impressed with his class that I felt compelled to write this review even before completing it. Coming from a completely different field, I was initially overwhelmed by the complex subject matter. However, Ditanyan's extensive background and expertise allow him to present even the most challenging concepts in a clear and engaging way. His classes are dynamic and interactive, a far cry from the monotonous "textbook reading" style. He challenges us to think critically and fosters an environment where every student actively participates. Navigating the dense textbook could be daunting, but Ditanyan masterfully breaks down the material, highlighting key points for both the exam and real-world application. He goes above and beyond, sharing invaluable insights on building a successful career as a home inspector - knowledge you won't find in any book or online. He even generously invites students to shadow him during actual inspections, providing unparalleled hands-on experience. It's evident that his home inspection clients are incredibly fortunate to have him. His thoroughness during inspections, coupled with his ability to explain complex findings in layman's terms, sets him apart. Not to mention, his rates are remarkably reasonable, offering exceptional value. Ditanyan's dedication and passion for teaching are truly exceptional, and he deserves the highest praise."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Annual inspection prevents leaks, blockages, pressure issues, or other problems from developing.

Homeowner’s insurance will usually cover damages caused by contractors, but it won’t cover repairs if a contractor does poor work. If a contractor completes a job and you’re unhappy with the results, your best option is to have a civil conversation with the contractor about the issues. Reputable professionals may be willing to address your concerns at no additional cost or work out another resolution.

Yes, you can negotiate repairs after a home inspection. You can talk to the homeowner about either completing any repairs or deducting the cost of those repairs from the price of the home.

It’s worth getting a wind mitigation inspection if you’re trying to save on your homeowners insurance. Plus, passing an inspection proves that your home is in good condition if a tropical storm, hurricane, or windstorm comes your way. Even if you don’t pass, getting a wind mitigation inspection is still helpful because it will let you know which areas to improve to make your home safer.

In most cases, you can negotiate after a home inspection and use the issues as leverage to bring down the purchase price of a home. The only exception would be if you waived the home inspection to make your offer more appealing to the seller. In that case, you can still have a home inspection done to identify issues, but you have no recourse to make a counteroffer after you get the inspection results.
