OPTIONAL SERVICES AND FEES

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR...

Avoid Price Shopping: Lower home inspector fees should be regarded with suspicion, as low quotes often identify those home inspector's who are new to the business or who do not spend sufficient time performing the home inspection. A home is the most expensive commodity you are likely to purchase in a lifetime. One defect missed by your cheaper home inspector could cost 100 times what you save with a bargain home inspection. The best method of price shopping is to shop for quality and experience. And that's exactly what you'll receive with Massachusetts Home Inspections.

One more item of concern... Choosing the right Home Inspector can be very difficult. Unlike most professionals you hire, you will likely not get to meet me until after you hire me. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and yes, different pricing. One thing, (for sure) is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort and experience.

Think about it. How many houses does an average person purchase in a lifetime? Three, maybe four? And how often? Once a decade? How would you like to go to a dentist that fills one tooth a decade? How would you like to go to a heart surgeon that does one operation a decade? You wouldn’t. So it's best for you ask your Realtor to assist you on choosing a thorough Massachusetts home inspector. Ask your Realtor what questions you should be asking the home inspector. The truth is, you should be asking your home inspector “How much money are you going to save me in findings”? A good home inspector isn’t going to cost you money. A good home inspector is going to save you money in pointing out costly issues within your prospective home. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee to give you my very best effort. This I promise you.

If you have any questions concerning your upcoming Home Inspection, please do not hesitate to call me directly. You can easily reach me on my cell phone at 978-423-2313. If you happen to get my voice mail, I'm usually with a client performing a home inspection. So, if you would please leave a message, I'll return your call shortly.

Thank you for considering my home inspection services,

Here is what my clients have to say about my home inspection services:

Press F5 (on your keyboard) for additional testimonials

Buying a home is arguably the most important, exciting and nerve-wracking purchase a person will ever make. This is the reason you need a great home inspector, and Dave Valley is just that. He is empathetic – he understands and appreciates the various emotions a potential home-buyer goes through. Most importantly, Dave provides you with objective information so you can make the most informed decision possible.

It was a pleasure working with Dave – he contains all the qualities that make a great home inspector – he is the consummate professional, prompt, courteous, meticulous in his detail and honest. Dave was reasonably priced – in fact Dave charged me the same amount I spent 10 years earlier on a smaller house and provided a far better work product.

Prompt

I arrived at the house at the agreed upon time on a cold and nasty day, and found Dave outside inspecting the exterior of the home. He was already a half hour into his inspection – I think this exemplifies and is symbolic of the fact that Dave is respectful of his client’s time.

Courteous

Dave was pleasant to deal with, personable and thoughtful not only to his client but also to the buyer’s real estate agent.

Detail-oriented

Dave spent almost four hours in his investigation of a 2,000 square foot house. He answered all my questions and reviewed every observation he had with me. David provided a detailed report, and encouraged me to call and email him to discuss the report and to ask questions.

Conclusion

The highest compliment I can give Dave is to say that I would use him again and will encourage and recommend him to others.
