"Ditanyan Sye is an extraordinary educator who's truly passionate about teaching. I'm so impressed with his class that I felt compelled to write this review even before completing it. Coming from a completely different field, I was initially overwhelmed by the complex subject matter. However, Ditanyan's extensive background and expertise allow him to present even the most challenging concepts in a clear and engaging way. His classes are dynamic and interactive, a far cry from the monotonous "textbook reading" style. He challenges us to think critically and fosters an environment where every student actively participates. Navigating the dense textbook could be daunting, but Ditanyan masterfully breaks down the material, highlighting key points for both the exam and real-world application. He goes above and beyond, sharing invaluable insights on building a successful career as a home inspector - knowledge you won't find in any book or online. He even generously invites students to shadow him during actual inspections, providing unparalleled hands-on experience. It's evident that his home inspection clients are incredibly fortunate to have him. His thoroughness during inspections, coupled with his ability to explain complex findings in layman's terms, sets him apart. Not to mention, his rates are remarkably reasonable, offering exceptional value. Ditanyan's dedication and passion for teaching are truly exceptional, and he deserves the highest praise."

Home inspections FAQs

A thorough home inspection can reveal issues that you might otherwise not know about and provide you with an opportunity to address them before selling your home. Or, if you’re the home buyer, the inspection helps you decide whether or not to continue the sale or negotiate with the seller the final sale price if the inspector finds extensive problems.

As the home buyer, you're typically responsible for paying for the home inspection. This investment provides you with a clear evaluation of the property's condition and helps protect your investment. In some cases, the seller might choose to pay for a pre-listing inspection to identify and fix any defects before putting the home on the market, which can streamline negotiations and reduce the risk of unexpected repair expenses.

No, a home inspection isn't typically included in the closing costs. It's an independent service that you, as the buyer, usually arrange and pay for separately. Sometimes, the seller might get a home inspection before listing the property. This thorough evaluation provides detailed information about the home's condition, helping you identify issues that could lead to costly repairs and protecting your investment.

Yes, new home building inspections are just as important as inspections for older homes. They verify that construction standards have been met and that all critical systems comply with current safety codes. Inspectors examine electrical, plumbing, and structural components to ensure everything is in order before you move in. This service is similar to inspections for older homes and helps identify any construction errors early on.
