What to Expect

Home or real estate buying and selling can be nerve racking.  Let me relieve some of the stress by inspecting the systems in the home you're buying and selling.

A Closer Look, LLC provides a professional, thorough, friendly inspection experience that is reasonably priced. 

How long does it take?

It takes two and a half to three hours for a thorough visual inspection including on-site report creation, printing and emailing.

Data is collected on a laptop with cutting edge reporting software. You need not be present during the inspection but it is recommended that you attend the on-site review afterward. The review typically takes about 30 - 45 minutes.

An eReport is also included and will be emailed to anyone you desire.

What does the inspection include?

  • Site Grounds & Grading
  • Exterior and Structure
  • Roof Components
  • Plumbing Systems
  • Electrical
  • Attic
  • Interior
  • Bathrooms
  • Kitchen
  • Basement / Crawlspace
  • Heating System
  • Cooling System
  • Garage

Additional Services

I have partnered with the top radon testing and termite inspection companies so you can also schedule a Radon test or termite inspection during the home inspection. Just let me know when you set your home inspection appointment. A separate check will need to be written for each service.

If we inspect both the home you are selling, and the home you are buying, you will receive a $50 discount on the second inspection.

Are you already a client? Most of my clients come from referrals. Refer me to a friend or family member and if I do an inspection for them you will receive a check for $20 to say thank you. Sorry REALTORS and lenders. I only offer this to clients.

What Clients
Have To Say. (Yes, these are actual testimonials...)

When we moved to Cedar Rapids and purchased our new home, my wife and I decided we wanted to hire an inspector from within our church so we could trust him. We contacted Andrew and were not only pleased that he was trustworthy, but that he was very professional and thorough. Our previous inspector from our first home barely looked at our house compared to the job Andrew did! He produced a full-color, photo-enhanced Inspection Report that blew away my expectations. When I make a purchase this big, I want to make sure there are no “hidden surprises.” From my experience, Andrew will work extremely hard to uncover any “surprises” with your future home.

Andrew did our home inspection when we first moved to Cedar Rapids a couple years ago. I had a LOT of questions, not only about the house but the area as well, and he did a great job answering them all and provided us with a very comprehensive inspection report. Thanks Andrew!
