David did an outstanding job with our home inspection. He spent hours taking the time to explain everything to us, and he worked his way into corners most people would just skip over. He's thorough, detailed, and got his report back to us super-fast. He then followed up to make sure we didn't have further questions, and, when we did, he offered his opinion and also connected us to a plumber for a second opinion. After we bought the house and encountered an unexpected problem, he was there within the hour, crawling into more unseen places to figure out a solution.

We have purchased and sold four homes over the past 40 years, and David was by far the most thorough and competent inspector I have ever worked with. He made it clear from the start that my wife and I were part of the process. We were anxious about selling our home for a good price and were willing to make most of the repairs he recommended. Before the report was finalized, he set aside time to allow us to make repairs without compromising the report's essential elements, based on his accurate and detailed observations. This time, attention to detail, and respectful inclusion of the homeowner are very rare in the home inspection profession. David's work is simply outstanding.

If you are a first-time homebuyer, or just looking for someone with not only expertise, but also a unique talent to impart that expertise onto you, the House Whisperer is your guy. Dave is capable, intelligent, resourceful, incredibly thorough, friendly, and an excellent teacher. You’ll go through the house together and see firsthand what makes it tick, how to spot and assess problems, what needs to be fixed as soon as possible and why, and what projects might be on the horizon for the next couple years, and the years after that. Bring a notebook with you, ask questions, and be ready for a pop quiz – Dave will make sure you leave not just with a list of checkmarks and flags, but with a thorough understanding of your new home. This was absolutely what I needed as a newbie to homeownership and gave me the tools to find experts & estimates and negotiate for a lower price on my house.

Dave was really great! He spent over 7 hours walking around the property with me on Easter Sunday. He clearly was very passionate about old houses. He had very good advice and pointed out a lot of things both urgent and just general upkeep things to avoid urgent situations in the future. It was very educational for me as a first time homebuyer and provided a list of maintenance items to be included as part of our purchase negotiations. I highly recommend Dave!

Highly recommend David. Very personable. Thorough. He took his time with everything. Very detailed inspection report. Very helpful. Absolutely wonderful. I will definitely use him again.

I was great working with David! Very detailed and gave me great insight on what needed to get fixed. He was always ready to answer any questions I had and new plenty of contractors in the area. Couldn't ask for more.

David was an incredible home inspector to work with. He was very thorough during the inspection and took his time to clearly explain what he was seeing and his recommendations for how to proceed with each finding. He also was available to meet directly so that we could discuss the inspection and ask additional follow-up questions. His final report was very thorough and provided us with all the information we needed to feel confident with proceeding with our home purchase. The report didn't just document the urgent findings that need to be address to finish the purchase, but also provided us with a list of recommendations for future repairs / maintenance in the coming years.

David was fantastic to work with. With his background in building he was able to go above and beyond by answering some questions I had pertaining to a planned remodel of the home we are purchasing. David was very thorough and demonstrated great attention to detail. We did wind up getting a couple seller concessions due to details David uncovered so the service more than paid for itself. The report was turned around very quickly which is greatly appreciated. I would definitely do business with House Whisperer Inspections again!

Highly recommend David, the House Whisperer! He was very thorough and detailed, kind, and communicative. He put a lot of care into our home inspection and the report was delivered quickly. Thanks David!!
