Mr. Curtis,   I apologize for not having send you a report upon completion of not 1 but 3 inspections you performed for my daughter prior to her purchasing a condominium.   I have been out-of-town and just returned yesterday.   I was so impressed with yoru services that i already recommended your services to a friend. You gave my daughter and myself peace of mind by performing such a tedious and careful inspection and we do appreciate it. You are very thorough performing the inspections and this is what we need.   Thank you for your profesionalism and expertise.

To whom it may concern: Recommendation as Inspector - Curtis Petty   In December of this year I mad an offer on a home away from my normal living area. UsingGoogle on the internet, I found several web sites for Home Inspection including the one for Curtis Petty.  The web site contained a lot of useful information and was the basis in my decision to contact Curtis regarding a house inspection.  I sent out an email about 10:00PM that night and by 8:00AM the next morning Mr. Petty called me regarding my inquiry.  After questioning Mr. Petty about his qualifications, background and experience, I selected him to do the home inspection.  We set a date and time.   On the date and time selected, Mr. Petty showed up on time and proceeded to a very in-depth and comprehensive inspection.  Timing was of the essence as the house was set to close within two weeks.  Mr. Petty was very thorough and shared his observations with me as the inspection took place.   By the next morning, Mr. Petty had completed the report and emailed it to me together with many pictures showing things that had come up during the inspection.  It was a very comprehensive and complete report.   I shared this report with my real estate agent, the buyer's real estate agent, and my broker.  All of them were very impressed and stated that this was the most comprehenive inspection and final report that they had ever seen.  Based upon the report, we negotiated a counter-offer to the seller.  The quality of the report left no doubt as to what had to be done.  The buyer agreed to adjust the selling price to accommodate the items raised in the report.   I consider myself very fortunate in finding Curtis Petty as there are inspector's out there that quite frankly do not do a thorough or good job.  He is competent, thorough, and timely.  Tough talents to find today.  I highly recommend Mr. Petty.   Michael K. Grant 4951 Thornnwood Trace NW Acworth, GA  30102      I would like to thank Mr. Petty for the outstanding inspection that was done on my home. He was very thorough and very prompt in getting our summary report to us.  Mr. Petty displayed professionalism, effectiveness, and communicated all areas of importance.  I would highly recommend Mr. Petty to anyone who is in need of a home inspection.    Thank you, Mr.& Mrs. R. McDevitt 770-506-2009               

 

Mr Petty,   Thank you for your services both for the home inspection and the radon test. Who would have thought the home my sister was purchasing would result in extreme levels. However, because of your expertise, timeliness, and professionalism we are able to make intelligent decisions in the purchase of her new home.  I look foward to using your services again in the near future. Also, I have referred your services to my friends that are seeking someone of your reliability. Again thank you.   On behalf of my sister Theresa and myself ....thank you   Sincerely Yours,   Tamara L. Whalen

 

**This is excellent! I've never seen one so thorough here in Cinti. I'm moving down to GA next week. Will definitely be referring future clients to you. :) Thanks so much.

I was very pleased with the home inspection that was done by Curtis Petty. He met me at the home and provided me with an inspection that was thorough and very "accurate." He explained and show to me things that needed correction as well as those things the were working properly and in order. The summary report that he provided was detailed and easy to understand. I used the report as support in order to get all of the needed repairs done to the home before my move-in date. Great home inspection experience.

His card will definitely stay in my wallet and will be given to my friends that are in need of the service he provides!

Thanks Curtis.

"Thank you for your dedication to detail, as it saved me from purchasing a home I would have had to put at least another $25,000 in.

The house appeared in pretty good shape but your inspector found things they had painted over, i.e. dry rot, Masonite siding.

Since this is my first experience purchasing a home on my own (my husband did all the checking before and passed away 10 years ago) I can't tell you how relieved I am your inspector found all the big problems as I would have been in REALLY big trouble.

I have since put a bid on another home and want your company to do the inspection as well as a pre-inspection on the home I now own. I will call you for an appointment on my present home and my agent will get in touch with you if they accept my offer.

Again, I can't thank you enough for your help."

  I was very pleased with my new home inspection performed by Curtis Petty.  His experience, knowledge and accuracy was definitely demonstrated while performing the inspection.  I don't think any other inspector would have found the defects, hazard and safety items that Curtis found.  Curtis also explained in laymen's terms to me and my agent just want could happen if these defects, hazard and safety items are not fixed or repaired.  Curtis is also very customer service oriented and personable.

On September 5, 2002  accurate home Inspection completed a structural inspection of a home that my husband and I are in the process of purchasing. In addition to prompt service, the inspector was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. In giving the home a thorough inspection, he was able to bring trouble spots, as well as positive aspects of the house to our attention. He was clearly able to answer all of our questions and address our concerns. Needless to say, my husband and I are extremely pleased with the work done for us. We would highly recommend our inspector to anyone in need of a property inspection.
