Note: We do not pay to be on any real estate company’s list, we are typically only recommended by Realtors when the realtor has a very educated client such as a contractor or engineer, is seriously looking for the best inspector for their client, the realtor themselves or realtor is representing a family member or friend.  Also, there are very good realtors that recommend us regularly and other’s that are good realtors but just have not ever worked with us and just don’t know the difference.   We don’t have any unhappy clients, but we have had some unhappy listing agents and sellers.  We are independent inspectors. We depend on business from like minded consumers.

America’s Inspectors

Industry Integrity Award Winners

2010, 2011

We are a nationally recognized organization inspection company. We set the standards for other inspection companies to follow.  We are the leaders in the education field for our inspectors. Having a vast experience in all construction practices and codes set us apart from all other inspection companies. All our clients are 100% satisfied and recommend us to everybody that they know, we found that our clients mention us in any conversation about real estate and brag on what a difference we are than any other inspection companies they have ever used.  You will walk away from the inspection having the full perspective and full information on all important aspects. Don’t settle for a quick inspection and no specific information about these “top 8 “ items from some another inspection company.

Why you may not get all the truth from your inspector?

First of all, we don’t want to say “always or never” and you can apply that to the information given below.

Reason 1

Realtor’s Preferred Inspector or Inspection Company

There are real estate inspectors who’s main objective is the make sure the Realtors involved on the selling and buyer side of the deal are happy with their report and the property closes without a problem and no repairs requested or further evaluations by any specialty companies such as an air conditioning company or electrician. These inspectors are typically promoted by Realtors and maybe who your realtor may suggest that you use.  Realtors sometime will tell the consumer that some other inspector causes to many problems, cost too much, takes to long, is overly cautions, has been a problem on other inspections.  Some Realtors will go so far as to say things that will make the consumer feel that if they don’t use their inspector that they are not working with them.  At least ask the Realtor if their inspector has ever killed a deal?  Does their inspector or inspection company have some agreement or has paid to be a preferred provider status? Does their inspector have preferred status with the listing agent? Has the Realtor ever used America’s Inspectors and why not? If the realtor has their preferred inspector or company they will for sure steer you away form our company quickly. 

Now, here is the reason that you can’t always say always and never.  After 18 years in the inspection business many good Realtors tell their client to use our company or will only call us because they have a engineer, a friend, family member or themselves as their client and want the best inspection. We have had a Realtor call us out of the blue for their family member’s inspection and then not hear from them until their other brother wants to have a inspection.  I’ve had a Realtor call and say, my client is a doctor, a engineer, a lawyer, president of IBM, they had a bad experience with their last inspector or something like that and want us to do the inspection.  They say,” I can’t trust anybody else.”

Reason 2

Newer Inspectors 

New Hotel construction project consulting

I had three different contractors and months in delays before I hired your company to help me get back on tract with the construction of your new hotel. Not only did your company get everything back on track but we finished 1 week ahead of our original deadline time and opened our hotel on schedule. Thank You.Harrison - Irving TX

Flat roof consulting and supervision

Thank you for supervising my new roof installation and avoiding later issues and mistakes in the installation by the contractor. Money well spent is the way I see it.

Shepherd - Fort Worth TX

I commend your expertise and profession-alism in handling of the moisture and Mold issues in our commercial building.  I never thought it would go so easily to take care of the problem. You were able to isolate the source of the moisture problem that no one could find and direct me in repairing the mold so none of my tenants had any problems. I would highly recommend your company to anybody or corporation.

Most of these inspectors have the best  intentions. They may have 10’s of pages as additions to add to their reports to help make the consumer think that they are getting a good inspector and report.  Many of these inspectors will apply and get many different associations memberships and unremarkable credentials to make up for being inexperienced and not being exposed to the training that we provide to our inspectors.  Sometimes the consumer does not know that their inspector was working a officemax, the mall, a printing company up until they went into training to become a inspector six months ago.  The Texas Real Estate Commission a few years back started a fast track method for persons to become a inspector in Texas, the person can sit in a class room and spend hundreds of hours mostly preparing to take the Texas certification test to become a inspector.  Most inspector schools know or have a good idea of what is on the test and spend most of the time preparing the students to pass the test.  The inspector candidate may have to take the test more than one time to pass it. Once they pass the test they receive a professional inspectors licensed.  TREC started the original licensing with the numbers 1, 2, 3 and so on, now the licensing numbers are in the 20 thousands and counting.   The TREC also has continuing education requirements for all licensed inspectors in Texas.  A background in some field related to construction and field experience is needed for these inspectors to succeed.  There are some Realtors that really like the newer inspectors because they don’t find much as a issue either because they just don’t know or because they are eager to get more business from the Realtor as a result of not noting any issues of any concern on their reports; they try to demonstrate to the Realtor that they will help them close the deal.

Job very well done! You found all the problems and helped me more than you know. Thanks for spending so much time on preparing the report and explaining everything to me. Thanks for taking all my calls after the inspection and giving me solutions and advise after the inspection.

Reason 3

Just Don’t Care

Then there are those inspectors and inspection companies that work off of numbers of inspections performed.  Some larger inspection companies need a large volume of inspections daily to keep all of their inspectors busy and have a supervisory staff that constantly drives the message home to their inspectors to use long vague statements on their reports and sugarcoat it.  As I was told my a owner of a multi inspector firm, “ we have to have numbers and we have to keep’m coming no matter what, we don’t ever put the clients interest ahead of the realtor referral source”.  The multi inspector firms figure that  if they do 100 inspections and only have 25% unhappy clients and keep 100% of the realtor referral resources they are doing great. I hope you’re not part of the 25%.

Something that always has stuck with me, is after doing inspections for a few years, a seasoned inspectors told me that, “I cared too much about the client”.  I would have a lot of happy clients but no business from any Realtors.  We stayed in business anyway and grew.  These seasoned inspectors said, you can’t put the client’s interest first if you want Realtors to use you.

The building had some secrets that I believe you could only find. Thanks for the great job and all the time you spent on site and working on the detailed report you provided. Your fee was the best investment I could have made. Your company is heads above all other inspection companies in the DFW area, I would recommend you to everybody.
