One of the inspectors from Home Inspections Inc., Steve Messerschmidt, completed an inspection which was to help my husband and I have a clear understanding of a property which we were considering to purchase and ultimately ended up closing on. We trusted Steve to do a good job with inspection and identify any major repairs before closing to minimize unpleasant surprises and difficulties after move-in.



Within hours of being in the house (we closed on August 30, 2013) several major problems were identified that Steve completely missed. Our home has several structural issues that are apparent to an untrained eye to include: a warped wood floor, rotted and molded subfloor, door, door frame which all come from years of water leaking into our home, rotten wood on the two main pillars (and around the front of our home) on our front porch which hold up our widows walk, broken fans in the upstairs and ground level, and all windows are lacking caulk to prevent water leakage, etc.



Steve was ill when arriving at the house and wouldn't even shake our hands—we don’t know if this illness caused his negligence or if he is just a bad inspector. We are absolutely outraged by the errors on Steve’s part. We have had another inspector, that is also a contractor, come to our house—he was completely appalled that the damage was missed.



We offered Home Inspections Inc. the opportunity to make it right. I sent an email to the owner of the company, Robert Rust, whom proved to be useless.



DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!! NIGHTMARE SITUATION!!!
