Licensed home inspector working for mainly buyers and sellers in the States of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Starting fee for inspections are $275.00. I am a 1 employee company which is owned by myself, not a franchise. All fee's are to be paid at the time of service's.
"In June of 2018 Steven Hatcher from SafeGuard home inspection came and inspected the home we were purchasing. The report he gave stated little to concerned about so we believed everything was great and went forward with the purchase. However when we then moved in it’s been nothing but problems and at this point it has financially ruined our family. The things he missed are staggering. Plumbing, electrical and structural. We got two licensed plumbers who are home inspectors and one electrician. All of them said he is either blind, ignorant and incompetent or he did a professional favor for the seller who was also a supposed licensed home inspector. Or all of the above. We can’t use the washer because it’s plumbed into the sump pump tied incorrectly into the sewer line. We can’t use the dishwasher because the drain line was put in the main sewer line and caulked to seal it, this was blatantly visible and not code. Shower put in upside down, sink not mounted or plumbed correct. Exposed wiring and so much more that it take a book to write it all down. He is not an inspector but a fraud and I’m sure lazy because he did a lousy job. We can’t drain water we barely can use one toilet. We are devastated. We talked to a lawyer but it would be over 20k, the work is over 50k or more. If he just did his job and caught even a fraction of the major code violations we would never had bought. We put our life savings in to buy and now we have no way to fix this we may have to just walk away. The inspectors we paid after the fact couldn’t believe he could be that bad. If we gotten a real inspector we wouldn’t be in this mess. We found out any fool can be an inspector in this state there are no requirements. We found out the hard way and it cost us everything. If we could give him lower than an F we would. Please don’t ever ever use Him."

"Tim D. has no business being a home inspector. He decided to tank the sale of the house by stating there was significant hail damage, which there was not. Insurance said roof is fine. Qualified roof inspector said roof was fine. Buyer gave us report and demanded $20k off the sale for the roof. Now we can't sell the house until we have a written report discrediting the InSight inspection. Tim also was unable to figure out if outside water faucets were winterized. No license or training to operate as home inspector, so this is what you get."

It’s important to get a home inspection when buying a home because home inspectors are trained to examine the various aspects of a home to determine that everything is in good condition and find unseen problems that current homeowners need to fix before the home sale takes place. Although home inspections are not legally required, a thorough inspection can help you decide if you want to purchase a home. That’s why it’s essential to keep a home inspection contingency so that you have the option to walk away from the sale if the home inspection reveals expensive issues.
A home inspection typically includes the home inspector conducting a thorough visual examination of essential home structures and mechanical components. Afterward, the inspector will provide a home inspection report that relays descriptions of damage or other findings for the homeowner to review.
Home inspectors will examine the following home areas and features:
Plumbing
Electrical
Foundations
Roof
Windows and doors
Overall condition of interior and exterior
HVAC systems
Attics
Basements or crawl spaces
Major built-in appliances
Typically, a licensed and certified local home inspector conducts home inspections. Real estate agents often work closely with trusted home inspectors. Licensing requirements vary from state to state for home inspectors, but they must have local certification and valid insurance. Many licensed home inspectors belong to professional associations like the American Society of Home Inspectors.
Typically, the home buyer pays for the inspection by hiring a home inspector. This method helps you make an informed decision about a home’s condition before purchasing it. Home sellers can also conduct their own home inspection to ensure that they are getting the best price for their home and property.
On average, home inspections cost about $350, ranging from $200 to $500, depending on the home’s size, age, and location, plus any specialty inspections required. Additional cost factors include testing for asbestos or conducting thermal imaging tests to find infestations, checking energy efficiency, and looking for structural or electrical problems. If your home is more than 2,000 square feet, you can expect to pay $400 or more.
