I would recommend him without hesitation.

Absolutely happy with our experience - as a first time home buyer, we didn't know much about the process and Michael was very helpful. Very detail oriented (taking pictures and voice recording) and thorough (finding even the smallest things that I missed) with lots of knowledge. He answered all of our questions and went beyond our expectations. The report was provided to us very quickly and the website is very easy to use. Getting the request form/report was very useful. I would definitely recommend to my friends and family.
