Mike Holmes Home Inspections now in Toronto!

We use a lot of home inspectors in our business and we know our clients need a home inspector when the time comes to purchase.

I came across this website at the International Home Show. The fees seem to be on the higher end of the scale but that perhaps could be due to the "extras" they provide. Although I haven't used the Mike Holmes team I invite you to take a look at mikeholmesinspection.com or call 1-888-563-5699.

He also has a very informative magazine called "Holmes: The Magazine to Make it Right" however you have to be careful about the companies he recommends and the advice given as some of it seems to be for the U.S.A.

Enjoy!
