Secret #1-Not all home inspectors are created equal 
Home inspectors have varying degrees of experience and professionalism.  At Coles Inspection Services we have performed over 5000 inspections and have the systems in place to produce the same quality inspection time after time regardless of the type and age of the home.  Our standardized software, procedures and approach to each inspection assures you of a quality inspection every time. 

Secret #2- The team approach to the home inspection process yields a more thorough inspection
Common sense says that two inspectors working in the same area will give you a more thorough inspection.  Here at Coles Inspection at least two licensed home inspectors will be performing your inspection giving you the best possible and most thorough inspection in the industry today. 

Secret #3:  Getting a cheap inspection. 
Buying a home is probably the most expensive purchase you will ever make.  This is no time to shop for a cheap inspection.  The cost of a home inspection is very small relative to the home being inspected.  The additional cost of hiring a certified inspector is almost insignificant.  As a homebuyer, you have recently been crunching the numbers, negotiating offers, adding up closing costs, shopping for mortgages and trying to get the best deals.  Do not stop now.  Do not let your real estate agent, a patty-cake inspector or anyone else talk you into skimping here.   
  
SECRET #4-IS YOUR HOME INSPECTOR PROPERLY INSURED?
We have never had an insurance claim and with our approach to a home inspection it is highly unlikely that we ever will.  However, as an added service to those involved with the transaction, we carry insurance to offer you added peace of mind.  Less than 40% of the home inspection companies in North Carolina offer this service.  Be sure to check with any potential home inspection company you are considering.  Ask specifically if they have E and O.
