Realtors® I believe that you will find my services are of special value to you and your clients alike. In addition to providing the highest quality inspection possible, you can be assured that your clients will be treated with honesty, fairness and respect. I follow the same code of ethics that you do, and I take them very seriously. I understand the real estate business very well and have worked with many agents for many years. I have never worked actively in sales and have no plans to do so. I hold a real estate license only to better serve my clients through ease of scheduling and fast turn around time on reports.

• Realtor® and Member of the Triangle MLS with full lock box access.
• Fully insured with general liability and E&O which includes an indemnification clause protecting you as the referring party.
• Online scheduling for the ultimate in convenience 24x7.
• Same day report delivery.
• Education - I will take over 20 hours of CE this year to stay up to date on codes, technology, standards and safety.
• Communication and Support - A deal is rarely undermined when I can help the buyers, sellers, their agents and repair persons to clearly understand the nature and significance of a problem.
• Timeliness - In this business, all of us are pressed for time, I respect it dearly.
• Professionalism above all.

I look forward to working together with you in helping make your next transaction as smooth as possible. This is one of the most stressful times in a buyer and seller's life, one thing that is not needed is a difficult inspector. I am sure you will find me to be personable, tactful and understanding. I thoroughly enjoy my work and the people I meet. I look forward to meeting you.

                                                          For home buyers and sellers:

The most important factor in choosing a home inspector is qualifications. At a minimum your inspector should be a general contractor, one with practical hands on experience in the field building and repairing problems first hand. This is an education that is literally earned from the ground up. I am a second generation general contractor and have been involved with the building trades since I was a teen. Originally from Massachusetts, my experience is diverse and includes single and multifamily construction and renovations and repairs in structures both historic and new.

Ongoing education and affiliation with professional associations are an important factor to consider as well. I will take over 20 hours of continuing education this year to stay up to date on codes, technology, standards and safety. I attend state and local meetings of the North Carolina Licensed Home Inspectors Association and the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors. I strive to stay at the forefront of my profession.

Insurance is an important part of our daily lives; we protect our cars, life, and health. We can't live without it these days. The State of North Carolina has no insurance requirement of home inspectors and a lot of inspectors don't carry any at all. I am fully insured.

These are the basics, but there are many other considerations when making your choice.

• Service - From ordering an inspection to unlimited support, my service does not end with the delivery of your report.
• Reports - Delivered the same day in a clear, concise, narrative style with pictures of all concerns. Not a boilerplate checklist.
• Agility - Inspecting is very physical. I climb accessible roofs, enter the entire crawlspace and fit through the smallest attic scuttles.
• Educating the client - My inspections are not rushed. I invite you to attend and ask all the questions you can think of. I love to talk about houses.
• Locally owned - No franchise or managers here. When you hire me to perform your home inspection you get my full attention without constraints.

I understand that choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me. Different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, and reporting methods.
One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires a lot of work.
Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspectors own effort.
If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home,
I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort.
This I promise you.

Thank you so much Scott. And thank you for being so prompt I really appreciate.
Regina S, Realtor

Scott is a great home inspector. I met him when he was inspecting our house for a buyer. I was so impressed with the inspection and hired him to inspect the house we planned to buy. Since then I have recommended him to several neighbors and I have not heard any negative feedback. He was on time, thorough and sent the report the next day. He is also very patient and answered all of the questions we had regarding the home. I don't look forward to moving any time soon but, if I do, I will be hiring Scott for the inpsection.
John Booker, Cary

I am throughly impressed with your service, and the report was incredible! Thank you for taking time out of your weekend and calling us back on Sunday. If this house doesn't work out and we end up purchasing another, we will definately be using you again!
Bobby G, Raleigh

I highly recommend Scott to provide any home inspection needs. He pays close attention to detail and documents all findings with pictures. His professionalism and excellent finished product ensures customer satisfaction every time.
Wendy Spruill, Buies Creek

Scott was very thorough in the house inspection he performed for us. He also was available for questions and response time was very quick (even on a Sunday). My realtor recommended Scott to us, and I know she often uses his services. I would definitely use Scott again in the future.
Christine Gillies, Raleigh

Scott,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the terrific job you have done on home inspections for Concept 2001 & Associates. Your expertise in the field of home inspections and knowledge of structural components on a home exceed your piers. We also appreciate your quick response and availability to schedule and complete the inspections in a timely manner, providing the inspection report within 24 hour time or shorter. It makes the task of completing the inspection and repair request within the specified time on the contract realistic. It is an added perk that you are also an MLS key holder, which gives you access to the properties listed without the presence of the realtor if need be. Your availability to answer our questions as agents and be available for our clients is an added personal touch you provide. I highly recommend you as a home inspector to all the cliental we deal with. Home Helpers has successfully helped Concept 2001 & Associates close millions of dollars in sales over 2007. Please feel free to use me as a personal referral any time.

Mr. Makseyn,
I am writing this letter in strong recommendation of your services which I have found to be outstanding. I have found your inspections to be invaluable for my clients and myself. They are honest, thorough and complete with out the fluff items that a lot of inspectors note simply to pad the report and justify their fees. Having been in this business for 10 years and having worked in home building myself as a framer, roofer plus various other jobs. I definitely know the difference. Based upon your performance I have passed your name on to my Office to add to a Professional Services Resource File that agents and their clients will have access to so they can also benefit from your knowledge and expertise. I look forward to a continued professional relationship with you.
Best Wishes,
Randy Jones

I started using Scott at Home Helpers Inspection Services after an inspection class he taught at our office and have been extremely satisfied with his quality, knowledge and professionalism. I was also impressed with his willingness to explain any found problems or potential problems with my client as well as any questions we had.
Gwen Grissom
Re/Max United

The best thing about your service is that you respond very quickly, your turnaround times (appointments)are usually within 48 hours and all the reports come with clear pictures of the issues that need to be resolved.

Since using Home Helpers Inspection Services we have been extremely satisfied. Scott always shows a very high level of professionalism and is a pleasure to work with. He's never panicked our clients with issues that he has uncovered and always takes the time to explain his findings, provide solutions and always puts our clients' interests first. We both highly recommend calling Scott for all your inspections.

I have had the pleasure of working with Scott for a number of years. His professionalism, knowledge and thorough inspections are unequalled. He goes over every item with the buyer, offers advice, is always able to back up his findings while reporting them in a neutral manner. The buyers are left feeling confident that Scott is working for them, not me. As for the convenience aspect of a busy Realtor, his reports come the same day and he is a member of the MLS which saves me time. I am always confident in referring my clients and other Realtors to Scott. He is an integral part of my success as a Realtor.
Andi Sannipoli, Broker, Realtor
Concept 2001 & Associates

Scott at Home Helpers Inspection Services has great rapport with my clients. He communicates the inspection findings in a way that leaves them comfortable and confident in their purchase. I always refer Scott because of the degree of professionalism and detail that he provides with every inspection.
Matthew Downing
Re/Max United

Thank you! I didn't think service like this still existed in this day and age. You are truly a professional and after trying many local inspectors, you are definitely on our Best Services in Raleigh referral list we give to our clients. The fact that you are an MLS member saved me a lot of time and I appreciate your respectfulness to the seller's property as well as your thorough practical report for the buyer. When questions arose you promptly addressed my calls. We look forward to continue doing business with you.

Scott,I just wanted to thank you for the solid home inspection work you have done for my clients. I appreciate your professional deportment, timeliness of your reporting and service, accessibility, and thorough discussion of your inspection findings.The photos and links to them in your reports are very helpful.

I have used Scott Makseyn's Home Inspection services. He is responsive, prompt and communicates well with my clients. This is important to me because the home inspection can be a stumbling block for many new home buyers. The written follow up report format is concise and clear. Thank you Scott.
Sarah Mendel
Re/Max United

As a Realtor and licensed General Contractor, I carefully consider any recommendations I make to my clients. Scott has consistently demonstrated skill and professionalism in his craft of home inspections. Those who have used Scott's services have been impressed with his diligence. Scott has earned my trust and I will continue to recommend his name to any and all of my future clients. Keep up the good work Scott!
Steve Doyle

Broker-In-Charge, Realtor, GC.

Scott Makseyn has done several inspections for my clients now. Many of these clients were on the fence whether or not to even have an inspection. After telling my clients the importance of having an inspection done I would set them up with Scott. Every client has thanked Scott and myself after having an inspection. In the end it is going to potentially save you a lot of money by discovering and addressing any problems before you purchase the home. He is phenomenal at his job and has a keen eye for detail. My clients have always been pleased with his professional attitude and detailed inspection reports. His experience in residential homes makes him really good at performing inspections and discovering and potential problems that may be overlooked by someone without the experience. Thank you Scott for all of your hard work. I look forward to seeing you a the next inspection.
Ben Walsh

Thank you for your help with the several clients I have had. Your job has been excellent.
Thanks,
Alfredo Campos

Scott has been a great help to me and my clients. He is the most professional Home Inspector that I have come across in six years of real estate here in North Carolina and in Florida. Since I have met Scott, I have used him exclusively. I cannot say any higher praise than he is a person you can trust. He is a member of the MLS, so if I am running late, there is no problem, since he has access to the listing, therefore he can start before I get there. The reports are very detailed and I have it in a very timely manner, usually the same day. I will keep on using Scott, I suggest, spread the word about him.
Joe Richter
Wieland Properties

I've had several clients who hired Scott make a point to tell me they were very satisfied, and sure they got their money's worth. That was great. As an agent, he makes my job easier by being very accessible and by taking a thorough but balanced approach. His professional demeanor, reports, verbal communications, and availability for follow-up are exceptional. I especially like that the report pictures and text so clearly define problem areas - no ambiguity - making it easy to define and communicate repair requests. Bottom line: I trust him. We hired him when my son bought a home, and if/when we sell ours, I will hire him to do our pre-listing inspection.
Bob Rodwell
RE/MAX UNITED

I recommend Scott at Home Helpers Inspection Service all the time to both my clients and other agents. The service he provides is top notch. He cares about my clients and always reports his findings in a way that doesn't scare them away from the deal. Also, as a listing agent my sellers have on occasion received inspections on their properties from Home Helpers. We are able to forward the report straight to the repair guys and get everything taken care of without me having to come out and show them or even having to explain it to them over the phone. Now that is a great report!
Sheri Moritz
Broker

I found Scott to be extremely professional and Knowledgeable. He made my clients feel at ease and that they were in the hands of a highly competent Home Inspector. He worked in a timely manner and produced the results the same day. I would have no hesitation in recommending Scott to all my future clients. I even used him myself for a recent home purchase!!

I have been very pleased working with you. The level of customer service and professionalism has been great. Your service has been a great tool since you have done all the inspections it in a timely manner getting me the report the same day. Your reports are very complete and allows me to see what is really going on with the property. The fact that you are a member of the MLS and an approved inspector for NACA it is definitely a plus. I have really enjoy working with you and I appreciate all you do for me and my company.

I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how much I appreciated your care and concern with my first-time home buyer and her son. You patiently explained all the areas of the home, both good and questionable, so that they felt very comfortable with their purchase. Your basic knowledge is very impressive. Your attention to small details impressed my buyer of a small townhome. In each of these two recent inspections, my buyers were very impressed that we had found them good deals! Each felt that they could go to their closing confident with their purchase. It is my sincere intention to use you for all of my home inspections.
Respectfully,
Sandy Alexander
Keller-Williams Broker Associate

I appreciate Scott's attention to detail, his professionalism, and the convenience he offers my business. He makes it a point to go over the areas of concern with my clients and offers suggestions for resolution. My clients can walk away from the inspection feeling like they've made a sound buying decision. For the times where I can't make the inspection, I can feel comfortable having Scott, being a member of the MLS, meet my clients, enter the home, and conduct the inspection without me. Scott is a true professional and I will continue to refer him to clients and fellow agents.
Mick Bodino
York Simpson Underwood

I've used Scott Makseyn with Home Helpers on a number of occasions and I've always found him to be very professional and helpful to both me and my clients. With nearly 13 years of experience selling homes in the Raleigh area, and after hundreds of home sales, I feel that I know what to look for in a home inspector. Scott provides excellent service, fast delivery of online reports, and detailed information which is critical to my home buyers. It's clear that Scott has a thorough knowledge of the entire home inspection process. I will continue to use Home Helpers as an asset to my business!
Neil Rowerdink,
Broker/Owner - Equi-MAX Realty Group

Scott's response to phone calls and requests are immediate. His knowledge, professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile, makes me confident in front of my clients. I don't feel hesitant asking Scott to take care of my client's Home Inspection's needs, because I know Scott will do a job well done.
Hector Vega
Broker - Casa 123

Thank you for the inspections you performed for my clients. Your professionalism and knowledge is greatly appreciated. The detailed explanations you provide are a real benefit and give the buyers a high level of confidence. As a Realtor®, I am confident in your services and look forward to working with you in the future.

Scott has such great knowledge on the anatomy of a home. I have been in the real estate business for some time now and Scott is definitely one of the best inspector's around. I have nothing but good things to say about him. Service is top notch and unlimited post inspection consultation is so important. I would recommend him to anybody.
Eric Clemente
REALTOR

I have been working with Scott Makseyn since 2004. Scott has consistently provided my clients with first class service, in depth knowledge and understanding of the scope of their home inspection and given them help and options on how to approach the repairs involved with their purchase. The report from Scott is not only in my possession within a few hours, YES hours, not days. It is clear and concise with detail descriptions and color photographs showing the area of damage or concern. He is without a doubt in my mind, the most knowledgeable and professional inspector I have had the privilege to work with in my real estate career. The fact that he is also a licensed Realtor in his own right gives me the convenience of letting him go ahead and inspect the home without my presence or to begin the inspection and I arrive later to get his qualified opinion on what he has discovered.
With Scott you never have to concern yourself with the age old question, will the inspector show up, and on time. I highly recommend Scott Makesyn and Home Helpers. May I suggest that you give him a try with your next home purchase, I guarantee you will be completely satisfied.
