House inspector recommendation? Anybody know of a good house inspector? Preferably a current/prior general contractor, but most importantly, a discriminating eye. Thanks!

The Lussier team https://lussierteam.pillartopost.com/ They have done two for us and saved us thousands by finding very important issues at both houses. They are very thorough and great at explaining things to all levels of understanding. Can't recommend strongly enough.

I used Win home inspection . Believe the man's name was Mike. Was very satisfied. He was thorough and knowledgeable and offered advice and recommendations for any of my questions.

I used Atlantic Home Inspection. They’re out of Lyman. I think the guys name was Kevin. No complaints. He was detailed and reasonable.

Focus property inspections. These guys are awesome. Explain everything to you and you can ask ton of questions. $700-$1200 per inspection depending on the house size but it’s worth it. You get what you pay for.

The right question is "How do you choose a home inspector?" All these recommendations don't mean much because people display confirmation bias. I have had many people tell me that they have a great home inspector BUT when I delve deeper I find out they did not take the dead front off the fuse box, they did not walk attic and THEY DID NOT GO ON THE ROOF! Recommendations are great but YOU need to interview and vet them. Here is the HUD list of questions that you should use to find the right home inspector for you. https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/housing/sfh/insp/inspfaq
