Welcome to Complete Home Inspections
Buying a home is one of the most significant decisions and one of the biggest investments you will ever make.
A professional home inspection will enable you to learn a great deal about the ups and downs of a particular home, answer some very important questions and help give you peace of mind.
Whether you are buying or selling, you can use this information when considering the sales transaction.
Jim Elliott has been performing inspections since 2004, providing excellent, high quality service to buyers and sellers alike.
