What to Look for in a Good Home Inspector

A good home inspector should have an in-depth, working

knowledge of home design, construction, remodeling and home repairs.

A good home inspector should have good communication skills with

all parties involved in the transaction - sellers, buyers, agents and contractors. 

A good home inspector should provide a detailed inspection report (narrative style, not a check list) covering every aspect of the home.   The report should have easy to read explanations of the systems inspected, defects noted, pictures incorporated into the report
and a general overview for quick reference. 

A good home inspector should have an established, well organized company with a reputation for quality and that will be there to serve you far into the future.

"My husband and I are property investors based in Sacramento, CA. Although I grew up on Maui, I moved to the mainland in the early 90's.  We recently purchased our first property in the Wailea area of Maui, and were referred to Mark Thorman Home Inspections by our Realtor.

A thorough inspection is crucial to the success of our business, and I was skeptical that the inspection would occur in a timely manner.  After all, I grew up on Maui, and am very familiar with the slower pace of things, especially compared to the frenzy of the mainland. 
My husband and I were both extremely impressed with Mark Thorman Home Inspections.  We expected them to report on the general condition of the property, but they were painstakingly thorough down to the minutest detail.  Each and every accessible component of the property was inspected and reported on, AND they included a photo for each item.

Mark Thorman Home Inspections were very prompt, very meticulous, and the fee was actually less than expected.  They truly went above and beyond what was necessary.
We are returning to Maui next week to purchase our second Maui investment.  We will call on Mark Thorman Home Inspections to inspect all of our Maui investments."
