Dear Ron,

The best decision we’ve made about selling our home was hiring you for pre-sale home inspection.  You spent SO much time with us, and left us the most detailed report with recommendations for improvement.  I wish you had inspected the home when we bought it, for many things were over looked by the realtor recommended inspector when we purchased it.

It was a real eye opener to have you point out errors made by licensed contractors we hired for upgrades and renovations. I wish I had you inspect their work immediately upon their completion. I’m sure the work would have been corrected or money refunded.

The money we spent with you will save us thousands of dollars in the long run for we are able to fix and repair a lot of the things you pointed out ourselves. We also are able to feel secure about the safety of our home and know when a home inspection is done by any buyer’s choice we will not have any surprises.

Thank you so much for your extensive examination of our home. You were a pleasure to work with.

Sincerely,

Jacqueline.

Ron you were right this is pretty impressive and I don't impress easily but I know excellent work when I see it. I could actually present this to a buyer, lender, etc. and they would be blown away with the amount of detail contained in this report.

 

Thx again

Hi Ron,
 
Well, we are finally moved into our new home on Critchett Road and just got our internet and phone connections yesterday!  We just love the place and know that this was the right home for us.  I just wanted to thank you for your excellent work in helping us to make the most informed decision possible in buying the right home.  As you know, the first house we looked at was truly the "house from hell" and would have been a disastrous choice for us.  The catch was that the things that made it such were certainly not obvious to the untrained eye and it sure looked like a nice place on first glance!  Please feel free to use us as a reference to your potential home inspection customers.  Your patience and thorough inspection were worth every penny!  By the way, as you may recall, you recommended that the garage should be sheet rocked due to building and fire codes.  The previous owners said that their home inspector did not mention this violation!  They had a contractor do the work to code as a contingency before closing......thanks, Ron!
 
Have a great summer,
 
June Cormier

Dear Mr. Racine:

As home sellers, rather than your usual buyer-clients, we wanted a trusted home inspector to give us an evaluation of our home so we could make any necessary repairs prior to listing it for sale. Because our home is approximately 28 years old, we strongly felt it was imperative that we had all the information up front to avoid any unfortunate surprises at the time of sale.

You spent well over six hours with us trailing behind you asking questions which you patiently answered in laymen’s terms.

Your results and recommendations lead us to make some very important repairs that would have been overlooked and most likely would have resulted in a dramatic reduction in our final sale price. Also, your professional and comprehensive report gave us detailed information and photographs for further reference.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the extraordinary home inspection you performed for us last month. It proved to be an education for us and opened our eyes to problem areas we would never have given a second thought to.

You are very personable and professional and we would not hesitate to highly recommend you to potential clients.

Our sincere thanks,

Alden and Lorraine Robinson

Ron,

I was very satisfied with the home inspection that you provided. Your keen eye, attention to detail and insight made the whole experience very beneficial. The tips and knowledge that you provided during the actual inspection were invaluable. The report that was provided was also very detailed and thorough in both text and pictures. Your attention to customer satisfaction was also appreciated as you have continued to answer my queries well after the report has been completed. Your service exceeded all of my expectations and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a home inspector.

Thanks,
Terry

I hired AppleWood Home Inspections to inspect a home my family had not viewed in person.  We were conducting an internet purchase, as we were not able to fly across country to view the home in person.  Ron gave us a thorough and impartial professional inspection, documenting on paper and via digital photos all issues he found.  He performed several phone calls with us, arranging to talk with us in our time zone, and ensuring we understood all issues.  There were many issues, which we decided were worth taking care of on our own, and decided to purchase the home!  I would hire AppleWood again!

Cheers!

Ron has such an incredible knowledge of all aspects of checking the house. We just had our home inspected by Ron on Saturday and Ron did a great job checking the home and took the time to explain what he is looking for and happy to share this knowledge and answer questions. We were looking around for a good and thorough home inspection after we had a bad experience with a previous home we purchased. Ron is so very honest and friendly and knowledgeable and also easy to work with. He also spent as much time as was necessary going over all aspects of the home and answering questions. The information we got from Ron made my home buying experience easy and even enjoyable. We feel we gained a great deal of knowledge about the home we want to buy. We can just go on and on about our experience with the home inspection. We definitely recommend Ron Racine and Applewood to everybody who is going through a home buying experience. The other great thing that we want to point out is the report we got. The report includes pictures that Ron took with his digital camera, of the problems that he found. It is so easy to follow. Just clear and easy to read through! I wish we knew about Ron and Applewood when we bought our previous home.

We want to take this opportunity to also thank Applewood for the thorough inspection of the property and we are looking forward surely to living in our new home.

Ron,

I showed a few contractor buddies the report and they were all impressed
with the thoroughness of the report. I appreciate the time you took to
inspect my future home. I would highly recommend you to anyone I know.
Thanks Again.

Hi Ron;
 
I received two attachments included in your email. They both look great. Thanks for doing the home inspection. It was very thorough and informative. If I have the opportunity to send any business your way, I definitely will. I also appreciate that if I have any questions, I can give you a call.
 
Thanks again.

Hello!  My name is Liana, and my husband, Shawn, and I have recently placed an offer on a single-family home.  We have 10 business days to get an inspection if they accept our offer (we will know by 2pm tomorrow, June 8th).  I would like to get a complete inspection of the house. I have researched your company, and it seems that your ethic is the most outstanding of all of your competitors, and I would love to do business with you.  Please give me a call back at your earliest convenience, as if the offer goes through, we have only a limited amount of time to get the inspection taken care of .  I look forward to hearing from you soon!
 
Sincerely,
 
Liana M.

Thanks Ron, my wife and I really appreciate your help and all of your great work and advice.  We were very impressed, as was our broker, with your thoroughness and the amount of time you took to do the job right.  We definitely will recommend you to our friends in the future.

Dear Ron,

I have received your timely and detailed inspection report. MY bride and I will review it tonight after dinner.
Thank you again for your help and expertise. I will recommend your services to my future clients.
Best Regards,

Hi Ron-

We have received your report and appreciate how detailed orientated it is. We would also like to thank you for taking the time during your inspection to explain and present alternatives to us. Peter and I may contact you for an additional inspection. Once I go thru the report I may call you with questions.

Thanks

                  =====================================
 
 
Hi Ron,

I apologize again for not getting back to you sooner. The report was great and helped us get exactly what we wanted from the seller. I'm going to forward your report to the listing broker just so she can get a look at the kind of work you do. Thanks again for everything!

Thanks for the nice and thorough inspection Ron. I would definitely recommend you to my friends.  The report is really very detailed and exhaustive with pictures and markings on the photos showing the deficiencies. Myself, my wife and even the current home-owner's wife was impressed with the amount of time you spent at the site (5+ hrs).
 
Thanks once again.

Thanks again for your timeliness.

Dear Ron,
 
Just a quick note to say thank you for a pre-purchase inspection of the house.
 
As you know, I had reviewed several web sites and interviewed home inspectors before I asked you to do the job.  I was impressed by the quality of your home page, its professionalism, thoughtfulness and the presentation of the topic. 
 
The way you conducted the actual inspection not only meet our expectations but by far exceeded them.  Your attention to detail and an extremely thorough examination of every aspect of the house made us believe that we made the right decision hiring you.  And indeed, we did.  The report that arrived a few days later confirmed what we saw on the day of the inspection.  Your report, meticulously prepared and illustrated with numerous photos of the house and its surroundings,  truly confirmed what you promised that you will give your very best effort.  The follow-up we received after the inspection was performed was outstanding, and I suspect rather uncommon among home inspectors.  You really delivered what you promised.
 
The red binder with your report will be our guide for the months to come while we are struggling with home improvements and removing all the defects you identified  during the inspection.  I can assure you that it will find a place in our home archives as a testimony to its author who approached this mundane task with such a commitment, genuine interest and care as if we were your friends rather than customers.
 
When we settle down and follow all your instructions from page 1 to 38 of your report, we would like to invite you for yet another "inspection" -- this time as our friend for a drink!
 
Once again, many thanks for the wonderful job.
 
Margaret and Richard.
