Cancellation Policy
THERE'S 48 HOUR CANCELLATION POLICY AND A $300 CHARGE FOR CANCELLATIONS. By booking this appointment, whether it is for yourself or on behalf of others, you agree to pay $300 to the inspector if the appointment is cancelled within 48 hours of the appointment. This policy will be strictly enforced. Cancelled inspections are costly to the home inspector, and in order for this online service to be available, ordered inspections must be honored. It is recommended that inspections not be scheduled unless you are in contract on a property. This service is not intended to hold an inspector's time slot while making an offer to shorten an inspection contingency.
Report Turn-Around
Written home inspection reports are completed the business day following the home inspection. Reports are emailed and the hard copy is typically brought the client's real estate professional's office (if in delivery range) or mailed by Priority Mail. The hard copy includes the binder for the client and an additional copy for the real estate can be provided if requested at the time of the inspection.
