    I'm a first time home buyer and I was nervous and excited! John had such a great sense of humor, I felt like I already knew him.John and his son were very professional and through! They went over every inch of this house. As he went over issue, he also explained to me in detail about the issue. The report was very detailed! It came with pictures and explanations of the issues. If you're looking for a professional, detailed , and awesome home inspectors, you can't go wrong with these guys! I highly recommend these guys!

    Let me start by saying John and Josh are fantastic! I have used them twice over the past 2 months and am so glad I did. They were able to point out and find issues with the first house, which I ultimately passed on, that saved me $20,000 within 2 years of buying the house. Without their high energy, meticulous professionalism, I would have regretted purchasing the first house. They work in tandem, so you basically get 2 inspectors for the price of one. One will look over a part of the house, take pictures, and then the other follows picking up even more details. The best part for me was the way they went about explaining everything they saw. Not only would they point out a feature but they would talk about the details of the feature, explaining its function, why its there, and what it serves. They do this for everything whether its correct or not. They are not stuffy or snooty, but make you feel comfortable and at ease like you are having your father or grandfather teach you about your house. If you are looking for a home inspector that will come in with no personality, dryly point out what is wrong with no explanation, not interact with you making you feel like a fish out if water, these guys are not it! I left both inspections confident that everything that could be found was found and correctly documented. Many times they would go above and beyond and point out things or inform me of things they were not required to tell me, but things they they would not feel right about not pointing out. I am so thankful for The Home Detectives, Josh and John went above and beyond. For one of the inspections my father was present, who has bought and sold over 10 houses in his life, and he stated they were the best home inspectors he has ever seen. They are professional, knowledgeable, thorough, personable, and affordable. Highly recommended!!!

    This was the second time using John Farmiloe for a home inspection. John has a good sense of humor and made the process fun. The report was professional and easy to understand and read through.
