Let's keep things in perspective. Most Realtors commission is 6 %. Home Inspection prices are not 2 % but generally in the .2 % range. Keep in mind there is no industry standard like the Realtors, so every inspector can charge whatever they want. Most are represented in the following example.
Example: REALTORS INSPECTORS On a 1800 square foot $140,000 house 6% = $8,400 $260 On a 2200 square foot $220,000 house 6% = $13,200 $310 The cost of a Home Inspection is a bargain. Even if you paid $1500 for the inspection, on average it is still less than 1% ! How much are you willing to pay for peace of mind and to know exactly what you are buying?

Let's discuss how Inspections pay for themselves. First of all, say you and I agree on $220 to inspect your
house. I arrive at the house you are interested in, perform the inspection that takes about 3 hours, after we go over
the report you pay me $220. Now, two things can happen.
A. The house is in great shape so you want to make an offer. You tell your Realtor, "If they knock off $1000 we'll
take it." The Realtor says we can try but they may only deduct $500. You say " We'll take it !"
B. The house is in good shape, but I found out that the roof has two shingles that are broken, the garbage
disposal does not work, and although the light works on the bedroom ceiling fan, the fan does not turn. You tell your
Realtor, "We love the house, but we need to get those items repaired, and we will buy the house." Your Realtor
gets back to you with the good news and states, "The owners accepted your offer. They said that they will fix all the
items, or they said they'll lower the price $800 and not repair anything."
In situation "A" you saved $500 on the price of the house. The price you paid me was $220. $500 - $220 = $280
Because of me and your sharp negotiating skills, you came out ahead $280. You made $280 !!
In situation "B" you have two choices.
1. If they do the repairs that means that you will not have do the repairs after you move in. (Thank goodness you
had an inspection.) Repairs cost them $800. You paid me $220. For $220 you saved yourself an $800 repair bill.
$800 - $220 = $580 Because of me and your sharp negotiating skills, you came out ahead $580. You made $580 !!
2. Now say you don't want them to fix anything and you want the $800 off the asking price. You paid me $220.
$800 - $220 = $580 Good job, you just made $580 !
So you can see, not only am I there to help you find potential problems in your house, but nine times out of ten you
make money! It's really a win win for the smart consumer, you!!

starts at $99 in town and $125 out of town. Call for a quote.
Educational Review - Did you always want to know what certain things in your house are, or what they
are for? Do you know where the emergency shut offs are located? Would you just like to know more about your
house? I will come to your house and educate you on all the mechanics and how a house works in general. If you

Option 1 - Includes: pictures of concerns only and the emailed report. This inspection's primary focus is on
major defects. The inspection is best for clients needing an Arizona Standards Home Inspection with no extras.
This is great for investors who will be gutting and renovating the home. Price shoppers also order this type of
inspection. This inspection is not recommended for first time home buyers or for clients buying a newly
constructed home.
Option 2 - Includes: pictures of concerns and the house, the emailed report, major defects, minor/cosmetic
defects, 2 home maintenance handbooks, an informational CD, a binder to hold all the information, a home
orientation, maintenance ideas and safety tips. This is my most popular inspection and is great for first time
homebuyers and others.
Option 3 - Includes: everything in the other two options plus, a Neighborhood Environmental Report, a termite
inspection, your Inspection report on a CD, lead paint test and if you would like, a re-inspection of the seller's
repairs to make sure they were done properly.
All three options - price is based on location, square feet, age and extras. All three adhere to and fully
comply with the State of Arizona Standards. If you do not have access to email, don't worry we will make other
arrangements for you. They also include unlimited phone calls, and mediation. If there is ever a concern with a
