8/10

Costco, is surprisingly good for home furnishings. They sell this ottoman for $40 which is great as it can be converted into a folding chair as well for extra seating. Its faux letter, but the quality is great and Costco's return policy is great if you change your mind or the item breaks!

10/10

Googled home inspector in Toronto and was brought to Homestars for the first time. Read the number of positive reviews for Classic Home Inspections and the pricing was very reasonable. Needless to say I can see why the reviews were so positive. Despite short notice, Brent was able to make himself available to do the inspection and again was very punctual. He took the time to walk me through everything and kept reminding me to ask as many questions as possible, which was great because I had a few already scribbled down. Brent was very thorough testing all the electrical, water and all the appliances. Coincidentally, Brent had done a number of inspections in this particular building, so he knew what issues other units had in the past and took the time to ensure that my unit did not have any similar problems. As a first time home buyer, its re-assuring when an inspector is so thorough and able to answer all questions that the buyer has, in addition to offering personal advice. The experience really put me at ease and helped me make an informed decision. I would not hesitate to recommend Classic Home Inspections as even after the inspection is done, Brent still does not turn away any additional followup questions I may have. Thanks again for all the help!

What could this company do to improve their services?
It may have been that my unit was small and there were not many issues, but would recommend providing some additional details in the inspection report.

Company Response

Thank you so much Stephen for taking the time and leaving a review for me! As well, the kind words! Yes, I have inspected many, if not most of the condos in that development in East York. As I told you the whole thing was a disaster for the first year. After you move in you will hear the homeowners stories, trust me. Quite frankly the whole thing was a comedy of errors from the get go. However, having said that, it was refreshing that the unit you were looking at had next to nothing wrong with it!!! When you first contacted me and told me where it was, I was thinking "Oh no" ... when the inspection was done, it was "whew, no issues!" I'm more than sure you will enjoy your new home Stephen! Thanks again, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!
