Garland, I'm sorry that I was originally so hesitant about what you would be doing with the home inspection. I felt like you did a superior job and if I'm in the market for a home I'd certainly want you to inspect it. Haven't looked at the report yet, but am confident it is accurate and thorough. I would be happy to recommend you not just for home seller/buyers, but anyone who needs to know the condition of their home. I'm thinking of having you inspect my home here at Red Fox once I get some things fixed that I know are bad. You have my highest praise! Ned Dick

He was an excellent ambassador for the Lake Lure area and his profession in particular.
