"Hi [Member Name Removed], Thank you for the review. Hopefully you moved in by now and everything is going well for you at the new house. If you have any questions as time goes by, please don't hesitate to call. Thanks again, George"
inspection and radon test. George is a true professional and
personable. He talked to me in detail about what he was doing and what
he was looking for. He was detailed on what needed fixed and the best
way to accomplish it. I walked with him the entire time (except while
he was on the roof). His final report was very detailed and will be
used as my blueprint to make the necessary updates that the seller will
not do in advance of my closing. I would recommend George Kasimirsky
with National Property Inspections located out of Hickory, Pa to anyone
and everyone in need of this type of service.
"[Member Name Removed], Thank you so much for this wonderful review. I greatly appreciate you taking this much time to write this and I am so pleased that you felt this way about my service. I hope all is going well with the house for you and your family. If you ever need any further information please do not hesitate to call me. Thanks again, George"
Our inspection was on a Saturday, and we received the report the very next evening. It was extensive, well organized and illustrated. All of their findings were methodically documented and easy to understand. We were able to make an informed decision based upon this. It is our strong belief that NPI saved us from making an unwise investment.
Furthermore, George and Danielle were both friendly and professional. It was a genuine pleasure doing business with them. We would not hesitate to hire NPI for another inspection.
"Thank you very much for this wonderful review, we really appreciate you taking the time to write the review. It was a pleasure working with your family and helping you make an informed decision. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Thanks again, George & Danielle"
We have been through quite a bit through this whole real estate process in selling and buying. It takes a toll, however the one thing that has been simple has been the home inspection process. I do not write reviews, did I mention I have 3 kids running around, but I honestly felt that it was neccesary to do this for the sake of people looking for a home inspector. Choose this company period. I did not know George or Danielle before and saw their reviews on Angies List and went for it. We are grateful we did. They gave us the facts and we made the decisions that were best for us. That is really what any homebuyer wants, the facts and a nice professional attitude. That is what you will get with NPI.
In essence, we were unable to purchase the home we wanted because he ignored the information provided.
An example of his selective inclusion was a 4' x 6' dormer roof that needed repaired and insulated. Rather than showing that the rest of the roof was in excellent condition, he submitted ONLY photos of the dormer roof and claimed that the entire roof needed to be replaced pre-closing.
With a foreclosure, there is no "seller" to do these repairs. It is also impossible for a potential buyer to even get a quote on a pre-close repair, much less get permission to make said repair.
What should have happened, as he was working for ME... is that he should have said, here are the problems I see and these are my recommendations. Based on the potential buyers status as a rehab buyer and the information detailed in the already signed and approved contracts for repair, ALL of these issues will be adequately addressed within 60 days from the close.
Because of this inspector, we had to find a different home and the seller can't have the home financed and needs to probably do a cash only deal, losing money.
I would recommend this guy for a thorough inspection. But, he will be insulted if you know anything about homes, construction, etc. He also would NOT be good for a foreclosure or flip purchase inspection.
And I don't know why I paid so much more than everyone else. It wasn't a large home, and I didn't have termite, radon, lead, mold, or plumbing/HVAC mechanicals inspected. I really think it's because I'm female and that makes it so much more irritating.
"To whom it may concern I would like to take the opportunity to respond to the review posted by [removed member name] on July 23, 2014. First off, I think it is opportune to mention that [removed member name] was charged $ 325 and not $550 as she claims in her review. The paid invoice is reflected in her report. When we arrived at the scheduled home inspection we were informed by Mrs. [removed member name] that the water and gas supply to the house were shut off. I also discovered later that the power supply to one of the electric panels was shut off. This in itself limits the home inspection by default. (Hence no plumbing system or heating system could be inspected.) It is my job as a home inspector to point out the deficiencies of a house and property to the buyer who hired me to do exactly that. It is also my job to document these deficiencies, which I do through pictures. For example, the pictures taken of the defective dormer in this specific report. It was much larger than a 4x6 area. It would exceed the size of an average home inspection report to document every single angle of the house. If there are any potentially hazardous conditions to health or safety detected throughout my inspection I WILL bring this to the buyer’s attention immediately and make recommendations of how and when these should be remedied. It is not my job to negotiate any contracts or alter my report in any way to accommodate either seller or buyer. It is also not my job to take any future repairs, may there be signed agreements or not, for granted and rely on the “promise “ that these will be made. I could lose my reputation and credibility in case of future issues with the house. Mrs. [removed member name] rates the quality of my work with a D, but at the same time would recommend me for a “ thorough inspection “. This appears to be somewhat contradictory. Also, I am never insulted if a client has profound knowledge of any issue in the home, has previous training or knowledge of construction, or has done research on a particular problem. On the contrary, I encourage my clients throughout the home inspection to point out areas or issues which they would like to have especially addressed or that they feel needs more explaining or attention. Lastly, I would like to address the statement of Mrs.[removed member name] at the end of her review about the reason for my pricing. First of all I work with my wife on many inspections and she happened to have been with me at that specific inspection. Surely she would have been insulted herself if I would make comments or base any of my actions at an inspection based on the gender of my customer. So, to assure Mrs. [removed member name] she paid the base price for a home inspection ( $325) as everybody else does, male or female, since the appointment and time allotment was made under the impression that a full home inspection would be conducted. I am sorry that she was so unhappy with the outcome of this inspection and had all the misgivings about my report. I just wish she would have contacted ME and talked to me after she received the report and not waited four weeks to post a review."
George took his time and pointed out the issues of the 1969 house. We appreciated his patience with answering our questions and his thoroughness of the inspection. The final report was provided that weekend (inspection was on a Friday).
We would recommend George to our family and friends who need a quality home inspector.
George and his wife Diane were punctual, professional, and friendly. George really took his time to show me and explain every aspect of the exterior and interior of the house, noting what was good along with the trouble areas. His professional eye noticed many problems with the house that I did not when we were first shown the house.
Although he did not perform an air quality test for mold, he did point out black mold on the basement wall and green mold on the crossbeams of the basement ceiling. Options for repair of these areas were discussed (in fact, ALL areas that needed attention) and ultimately, we decided against finalizing the purchase of the property.
I am planning on hiring George for a pre-inspection of my current townhouse so there aren't any surprises when I am ready to list it for sale. I will also call on him to inspect the next house that we are interested in buying.
George inspected our 2nd house and found a few things wrong that were livable and we could deal with. George was very thorough of his inspection and found problems the home owner didn't realize . I recommend National Property Inspections to anyone.
He took time to personally point out areas of concern nah also places where I might want added inspection or attention by experts
He answered lots of questions
His report was completed the next day and included many helpful pictures
