A most important question. My fee is based upon the amount of time and effort the inspection will take, not solely on the house’price. That said, low price is not a good way to pick a home inspector, as the effort, time, and expertise varies greatly between inspectors. When you get a large firm, you don’t know who your getting at all or what his expertise is. My expertise and experience is boldly stated on the pages of my website. Moreover, you will always get me, not a surrogate hired from an ad in the paper.
Finally if you are looking for a doctor, lawyer to defend you, or a teacher to help your child, would you pick the least expensive, or the one who is most talented who will work hard for you? Written by Paul Besmertnik, PE
