I was really impressed with Vahn. I had a house under contract and contracted him to do the inspection. He did a very thorough inspection and found a number of major issues that were not obvious. He clearly knows his stuff, and was happy to explain things to me while I tagged along on his inspection. After getting contractors to give me estimates for the major defects he discovered, I found that it represented 60k in unexpected costs and disruptive repairs, so we pulled our offer. Getting a good home inspection is essential when buying houses, especially in old houses at Toronto prices! The first house I bought my home inspector missed a lot of defects and the report was sloppy. Vahn's report was very clear with tons of photos and diagrams indicating how the problem should be corrected.
I got the thermal scanning package, and while we didn't find any issues in my opinion it was worth it for the peace of mind.
