Customers frequently cite punctuality, thoroughness, and clear communication as strengths, noting that inspectors provide detailed, color-coded reports and remain available for follow-up questions regarding specific issues like mold or radon. Positive feedback highlights the value of finding significant structural defects and the professionalism of the service. However, some low-star reviews criticize the inspection approach as alarmist, alleging that minor cosmetic issues were marked as safety hazards, while others mention unprofessional conduct or perceived gaps in technical knowledge.

I needed a Termite Inspection last minute to close on my house I was buying. John came out same day, after hours to get it completed!! Can’t thank him enough.
John was extremely responsive and personally texted me to arrange a time for the inspection. He was on time, thorough, allowed me to ask questions, and was available the following day when I asked him to clarify an observation on his report.
John is thorough and diligent. You can tell he wants what’s in the best interest of the BUYER. He provides an unbiased professional opinion about the homes defects.

Congrats on your new place! Let me know if you ever have any other questions. Happy to help.
I would strongly caution anyone considering using this inspector. The issue was the unnecessarily alarmist approach taken throughout the inspection. From the moment everyone arrived, nearly every item in the home was presented as a major concern, regardless of severity. Buyers were repeatedly told to contact building inspectors, verify permits, and essentially question the safety and legitimacy of numerous aspects of the property, even when there was no clear indication of an actual problem. A home inspection should educate buyers, not terrify them. Instead of providing balanced, practical insight, the overall tone created fear and panic to the point where buyers felt like the home was unsafe or on the verge of catastrophic failure — despite the property functioning perfectly fine for many years. As a real estate professional, I have worked with many inspectors, and this experience stood out for all the wrong reasons. What was most telling was that when I later described the experience to other agents — without even naming the inspector — multiple people immediately knew who I was referring to. Unfortunately, that says a lot. An inspector’s job is to inform, not inflame. I would not recommend using this inspector if you are looking for a calm, reasonable, and solution-oriented inspection experience.
Hello....Julius Newman is a phony name. I do not know who you are and I never did an inspection for you. It is very clear you are a coward and DO NOT represent your client. You a sleezy SALES Person who is only interested in your commission. You are clearly upset you lost your commission. Real Estate professional, like yourself try to "Steer" the inspectors....so you can get the sale. The only thing that is inflated is your ego. If you were a real professional, you would have contacted me and created a list of things that I did wrong....you know what, ....if I did not do my job, you can report me to the State of WI. Nice try! Try acting professional stop slander me. I will wear this review with a BADGE OF HONOR! This review should serve all buyers as an example to NEVER use recommendation from the realtor. This realtor does NOT care about you. I only work for the BUYER......not for a slimly realtor like you.
John is thorough and diligent. You can tell he wants what’s in the best interest of the BUYER. He provides an unbiased professional opinion about the homes defects. He has the right equipment for roof inspections. He even went in the attic. If you’re looking straightforward and honest home evaluation. Look no further. He’ll save you a headache by detecting costly home repairs that the seller tried to mask with a coat of paint.
Thanks so much for the kind words! The unfortunate truth about flip houses is, the realtors, bankers, and flippers are all about MAXIMIZING profit and minimizing KARMA. Its all about maximizing the appraisal, new kitchen, new bath, # of bedrooms, and throw some paint on it. People, especially young 1st time home buyers fall in love with the home and a good sales person sells the home to you. And you've never even opened a window. Most of the time the roof is garbage or poorly repaired, because it does not add valve. And windows dont add value to the appraisal either. In the home I inspected for you only 1 window was working. The roof, chimney, siding, furnace.....everything needed repair replacement. The real good sales person makes you believe you'll loose the home and need to waive the inspection. Anyways, thanks again for the review and if you have any questions about any future home you are looking at snap a photo and send it to me. John
This is my first time buying a condo, and there were noticeable water stains in the property, but the seller didn't provide any explanation. I was really worried. I'm so glad I found Amelia's Home Inspection. They helped me identify the problems and provided professional advice. I'm very grateful for their professional service and patient explanations, which helped me understand the issues. I feel really lucky because I didn't know which company to choose at the time. I saw the good reviews, and it turned out to be true. I made the right choice; the inspection was very professional, and the service was excellent, just as the reviews said.
Thank you. And great job to you as well. Most first time homebuyers don’t ask any questions and they don’t do their due diligence. You’re doing both. A musical. Good luck, moving forward and congratulations
John was very informative and quite responsive. Glad we chose to have Amelia’s home inspection to check out our first home.
Congrats on your new home purchase
John gave us a detailed inspection of our future home and was happy to answer any follow-up questions after sending us the report.
Thank you for the review and congrats on your new home!
John was very helpful with some questions I had about mold in the bathroom at a family member’s residence. His recommendations were in line with what the research shows as well, which helped me be confident in how to approach the situation.
Thanks so much for the review. Please reach out if you have any more questions.
John did the inspection on my new place. He showed me several areas that needed attention, and made good suggestions in how to correct them. His report was comprehensive and thorough. The report color coded problem areas, making it easy to read and understand. He used different colors to denote areas would need immediate attention, and other areas to monitor, others that would need maintenance in the future. I would not hesitate to use Amelia's again, and would highly recommend them to anyone
Congrats on your new home! Happy I could help.
