Pre-purchase inspection

I may have been one of Paul's fastest inspections. We were looking at purchasing a fixer upper, and knew that the house we were looking at needed work. He arrived early and had already done a preliminary walk around outside before we arrived. Before he started the inspection he asked a lot of questions, and specifically what our estimated budget was for repairs. (70-100K)
Starting outside he quickly noticed a number of serious issues with the roof, the garage, the foundation, and once in the basement, confirmed what he probably knew already...fixing the house would far surpass our budget. I have personally taken most of the home inspection courses, have built a house and renovated many, but Paul noticed numerous things that I totally missed. I guess this is what 20,000 home inspections gives you. I doubt there is anything that he has not seen before. Anyways, At that point we all agreed there was no use to continue the inspection, but he still wrote everything up and supplied us with all of the documentation. The best $500 I have ever spent because I was able to walk away. I will definitely hire Paul for my next inspection!

Approximate cost of services:
$500.00
