Credentials. Certified as a building code inspector (CABO #04965, IBC # 5189183), and a member of the American Society of Home Inspectors (#00469). In the early 1990s, Greg Spencer served on the ASHI National Board of Directors and as President of the Southeast Chapter. Access. We carry a real estate lockbox key, and can access all properties that are available via a lockbox. Many lockboxes are set to open at 9AM, so if our appointment precedes 9AM, please make arrangements for access. Report transmittal. With electronic transmittal easily accessible these days, we prefer to send reports via email. The color digital photos can be clearly displayed and forwarded to agents, attorneys, contractors, family members and others. Reports are formatted in PDF (a free download from Adobe Reader). The inspection report is generally transmitted within 24 hours of the inspection, and can be sent sooner upon request. Duration. On-site inspections range from 1.5 hours for a condominium to 6 hours for a multi-million dollar estate with multiple outbuildings. Properties with difficult access to crawl spaces and attics, and/or numerous defects require more time. Properties built on concrete slabs and with few defects require less time. Most homes require 2 to 3 hours on site. Attending. Clients and agents are encouraged to attend the inspection, but we realize that busy individuals can’t always attend. Telephone consultation is also available to discuss the inspection and report. Payment. Payment is expected at the time of inspection, in the form of personal check, cash, or credit card (AMEX, MC, or Visa). Environmental Issues. We can provide environmental testing for mold, radon and asbestos upon request. Should you have any questions or would like additional information, do not hesitate to contact me. Construction Experience. We love designing and constructing buildings, and have a long history of successfully renovating properties in Atlanta’s Virginia Highland, Brookhaven, and East Point neighborhoods, as well as new construction. For the past decade, we have enjoyed developing and managing nightly rental cabins and apartments near Blue Ridge, Georgia ( www.toccoahouse.com ). |
