Negotiate 25k Off
We just moved in to the Anmore house you inspected for us in December. We managed to negotiate 25k off the agreed price after your inspection so we didn’t do too bad I think. Read More…
Testimonials
I recommended Ted to many friends
We have hired Ted 3 times over the past several years, and have found Ted’s work to be thorough, excellent and very worthwhile. The first time, his inspection gave us the confidence that we were getting a good deal on a condo that needed work. Read More…
Price Reduction and Concessions Made
Well, I got the house. Told them also about permits for electrical, retaining wall etc, etc. Made couple of changes to the contract. The sellers did not contest any of your findings. Knocked $10,000 off the price in the end and I’m fine with that. Read More…
Comprehensive and Coherent
Ted Gilmour inspected our 97 year old home in June 2007. His inspection was done not for us, but with us. He is the consummate professional. His report is completely comprehensive and coherent. Read More…
Definitely Surpassed That
Thanks for such a thorough report. I think I mentioned that we were looking for something as thorough as we would get in England – but you definitely surpassed that! We were very impressed, and glad to learn so much from it too. Read More…
There Isn’t Too Much Wrong with the Property
Thanks so much for another thorough home inspection. We are going ahead with the purchase and will complete at the end of the month. It’s a relief to know that there isn’t too much wrong with the property, and we also feel like we’ve learnt a huge amount from being there with you during the inspection. Read More…
He Takes the Time Needed
We have known Ted for at least ten years. He’s been our home inspector on several occasions and by listening to his good advice over the years, we changed our minds on three properties that needed a whole lot of work and money to upgrade or repair. Read More…
We Have Not Found Any Other Who Has Had Service like This
Very in depth 1 full day inspection and exceptional detailed report that we have used the past years as guide to maintain our house. The report was specific to our home and not a standard form. Read More…
An Inspector Apart
Matt and I would like to thank Ted for his incredibly thorough inspection this week. He provided us with much more confidence in making our final purchase decision, especially since we had already been faced with an outlay of $60,000 plus on our prior home due to envelope issues. Read More…
All things considered your inspection service was the best investment I have ever made.
All things considered your inspection service was the best investment I have ever made. Being able to present the seller with indisputable evidence of needed repairs, we presented a lower offer, which they agreed reflected the anticipated costs. Read More…
If your fee only covered the on-site inspection we would have definitely gotten our money’s worth.
We are beyond impressed with your integrity, passion, knowledge and professionalism. We will NEVER even consider hiring another inspector when we are ready for another home. A close friend suggested we contact you and we are extremely thankful that we did. Read More…
Inquiry from a Disgruntled Seller
You inspected our older home that needed some serious updates (priced accordingly) for some prospective buyers. We just heard from their realtor that they are pulling the offer. We offered them $200 for your inspection report but were turned down. Apparently even their realtor didn’t get to see the report. Why the secrecy? Read More…
A more detailed, passionate and knowledgeable inspector is hard to find.
Over the last 6 years, my nephew and I have been seeking the advice and services of Ted for five properties. In each project, we are alerted to the unromantic reality beneath the decorated facades. Which ends up saving us money and headache. And so more than justifies the slightly higher fee he charges. Read More…
Above and beyond all expectations!
Ted Gilmour did a pre-purchase inspection of a house in Vancouver. I chose him because of his website and rave reviews on www.homestars.com. Those reviewers are all right on the money – Ted is extremely detailed, thorough, delivers on exactly what is advertised as per his website and then goes the extra mile with his post inspection follow up and help! Read More…
We’ll definitely be calling him when we’re ready for our next purchase!
As first-time home buyers, Ted’s assistance was invaluable to us. We’d gone over our prospective purchase quite thoroughly ourselves before we put in an offer, but Ted’s extensive inspection found quite a few things that we’d missed. He was not only patient in his explanations about the information he was gathering, he was also generous in his willingness to explain corrective measures. Read More…
