A home is possibly the most important and expensive investment you will make. However, unlike most other purchases, if you are not satisfied with your newly acquired home, there is no money back guarantee, or return policy. Once you buy your home, you’re on your own to maintain it and fix problems that develop, all of which may be costly. In a typical 2,000 square foot home there are over 30,000 moving parts and eventually some will need repair or replacement. Therefore, it is best to know as much about your home and any potential problems before you make this major investment. A Home Inspection by John Curtin Home Inspector will give you the peace of mind and confidence you need as you move forward with your new home purchase.
Experience
Since 1999 I have served the Home Inspection needs of over 10,000 home buyers in Palm Beach and its surrounding counties. I have been in the home construction industry for 45 years and have installed every component in a typical home. A customer once said "John, your experience and knowledge of what is behind the walls of a home has given you X-ray eyes". Be it a 12,000 square foot estate home, a manufactured (mobile) home, a luxury waterfront condominium or your first modest town home you can be sure of the same experienced, attentive and personalized service. John Curtin Home Inspector is uniquely qualified to provide you with a quality, in-depth, and comprehensive inspection. Read more...
