Business Description

In business since 2003, our proprietary MaxInspect™ home inspection process not only checks 100% of the items we can see, touch, and test (about 2000 items in the average home). It includes all the best practices world-class home inspectors employ to uncover problems that are hiding above ceilings, inside walls, under floors, and behind personal storage itemes.

10 Reasons we're your best home inspection choice in Kansas City:

1. Your home will be personally inspected by Steve (not a hired amateur apprentice) who brings the patience and understanding of someone who has worked with all types of buyers with all kinds of experience buying and selling homes (from first-time buyers to seasoned real estate investors).

2. The wisdom, experience, and intuition of 14,000 homes inspected in the Kansas City area (as of Feb. '23) which means your home is up against some who has personally uncovered tens-of-thousands defects in homes of all types, sizes, ages, and areas (and we get better every year).

3. Personal help strategizing your next move based on your expectations, the defects found, and how much room you have to negotiate (if any) with your sellers. This way you leave knowing where to go from there.

4. Honest and no-nonsense discussions at the end of your inspection about the 5 major areas that scare people away ( this keeps you focused on the things that really matter). Our opinions will always be honest, straightforward, and based on actual experience.

5. An open Q&A session to answer all your questions and concerns at the end of your home inspection.

6. Your digital home inspection report will be delivered later that same-day and include enhanced photos of all important defects so you see the condition with your own eyes.

7. Your report will be written using plain language my mom would understand (love you, mom) so it will be easy for you - and anyone else - to read.

8. We evaluate each defect using a 10key™ Comment method. Over the years, we've learned to ask ourselves 10 key questions for each defect we find. Other home inspectors ask themselves 4 or 5 (and answer even less in your report).

But we want to give you a glimpse into our thought process so you see things the way we do. This way you know exactly what happened, what caused it, where it's located, what will happen if it's ignored, if it has affected any other areas, if it has damaged the home, if repairs have been made in the past (which means SOMEONE knows about it), if it's normal based on the age of the home, if it's a major concern, what we recommend, and if you should be worried. Whew! That's alot, but it's what you paid for and what you deserve.

Not every issue merits this kind of detail (some are small and obvious), but when it's a major defect that has the potential to cancel the contract, having the answers to all the important questions helps YOU decide quickly - and without much doubt - if it's still the home you want to buy.

Because this whole thing is about making sure you know what you're buying so you don't butt heads with nasty surprises after you move in.
