Mr. Scanlan,

 

     I just wanted to send you a heartfelt "THANK YOU" for the time and patience you have shown on the inspection of my parents new house. The inspection was extremely thorough and very professional. I'm glad you allowed me to inspect the crawlspace with you, it was very educational. The additional information you were able to find out about the septic system and HVAC components allowed us to make a better decision on the purchase and we feel very grateful you went that extra mile. I was very nervous making decisions on this house because it is for my parents and they live out-of-state. They have not even seen the house except for some pictures and by seeing your report. After speaking with you and getting some very important repairs done by the seller after they had read your report, we are moving forward with the purchase and now my daughter will be able to see her grandparents all the time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done for us and I will HIGHLY recommend you to others in the future.

 

Sincerely,

 

Ron M.

I would use Mr. Scanlan’s services again and again whenever an inspection on a property is needed.  Not only is he very thorough, but supports his client in every way, from report to recommendations and advise, as well as potential repair contacts, if needed, or state agencies.  He is readily available to answer any question, and explain systems, etc. (and he did, no matter how silly my questions might sound, myself not being in the building trade).  I do not hesitate to recommend him highly.

Hello Emmanuel,

Thank you for doing an excellent and a very complete job for the recent Home Inspection request. I have bought and sold a few homes and worked with many Home Inspectors but your work ethic, quality of inspection work and attention to details is just amazing. Your Inspection report was very detailed with pictures and explanations. Thanks for spending time on the phone with me as well both while you were at the site and later on to explain the items and proving complete satisfaction. I will recommend you to my friends and anyone who is looking for a Home Inspector.

Thanks

Vimal

Mr. Scanlan,
 
Thank you so much for helping with the contractor list.  It definitely will save me a lot of time asking around.  You've done more for your client, I'm glad I had a chance to work with you.

Emmanuel,
 
I apologize that it has taken me so long to thank you for coming out and writing the report.  I truly appreciate the thorough inspection job that you performed.  This report is going to be a huge help in getting the HVAC issues resolved.  I actually just forwarded the report to the builder this morning.  
 
Thanks again!

Hi Mr. Emmanuel,
 
Thanks you for providing all those valuable information. It would take me months perhaps years to gather those relevant information. Obviously, I don't have those luxury in time and resources to do it alone.

Hi Emmanuel,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the job that you did for me on Saturday. It was well above and beyond my expectation. You gave me so much insight that I am still going through it. Absolutely invaluable. If you ever need a recommendation, I'm your guy. thanks a ton from my whole family.

Sincerely,

Hi Manny,

You continue to delight with your info and attitude :-)

Thank you so much for your follow-through diligence and assistance – this is all great stuff, and way above and beyond the call.   I really enjoyed seeing a man excel in his work so impressively when we got together at the house, and the excellence just continues.

Big time blessings and gratitude to you!

Thanks again for everything!  The real estate agent later said that if she had thought of it she could have opened the house next door for any comparisons you may have needed to make.  (I wish I'd thought of it too!)
 
If we are able to get the house next door, we will most certainly have you come and inspect that one (or any others) that we may buy in the future.
 
Thanks again!

What other consumers have to say.


I frequently help other consumers here in Texas as well as around the country.  Sometimes situations become stressed and we lose sight of hope.  All it takes is another mind, an ear to bend, a fresh perspective on a problem or situation, and of course sharing of information to bring back some measure of harmony.


I would put Escanlan on your short list of Inspectors to interview. He's very knowledgeable, with proper certifications, and likes to educate and is honest. He will take the time to explain things to you.  Do not go for the cheapest inspectors! I interviewed about 10 inspectors, all from strong referrals, and only one quoted me less than $400 for a buyer inspection of 2400sqft (not including special services like sprinklers, pools, stucco tests, termite,mold, etc)(That one less than $400 I wasn't impressed with).  All the reccomended inspectors said they would walk the roof if it's accessible and safe, ie up to two story, not steeped pitch and some 3 story if accessible by stairs, etc. Note that I did not use Mr. Scanlan because I live many hours away but he has always been very helpful to me never the less, even after I decided to hire someone more local. I learned a lot along the way, and if I was anywhere close to the greater DFW area, I would definitely use him. He is very passionate about his job and imo, that is a requirement when it comes to hiring someone in the service industry.

Emmanuel,


Thanks for taking the time out to do all that you have done for me. You didn't have to but you did anyway.  I truly appreciate all the time you have spent corresponding with me. I will let you know how it goes as soon as I have gone to court. If there is ever any way I could be of help to you, please let me know. Thanks a million Emmanuel. You are truly one of a kind!

Sincerely,

Jean F.

Emmanuel,

Thank you for taking the time to go through the reports. Everyone's time is important and you are helping out someone you never met. I'm guessing the quote below your sign off explains part of your motivations for helping. If you are ever in San Jose, CA dinner is on us. You gave me some great input in the PDF. These are things I'll focus on when I do my walk-through on Friday.

Many Thanks!

Wow - this is great. Thank you for your time and advice.  I'm a young first time home buyer so I've been soaking up some great knowledge I can use for years to come.

Thank you so much,

Dear Mr. Scanlan:
 
I decided not to move forward with the purchase after looking at the EPA information.  Contamination or EPA is not something I want to deal with. 
 
I really want to thank you for spending the time researching the property and sharing the web sites.  I cannot believe you are so kind.  I often receive information on properties from an agent I work with for the past couple of years.  Next time, I may engage your service if it is not too far from you.
 
Thank you so much!
 
Cathy Y.
