To My Valued Referral Sources,
Let me start by thanking you all for your continued support of a New Business Owner. I want you all to know that your referrals are the lifeblood of our business. Without you A & O Home Inspections LLC could not Succeed. We always have your clients and referrals' best interest in mind with Top notch Service and Quality Reporting.

With the higher fuel costs and general cost of doing business going up many companies are raising their prices to accommodate those rising costs.

We are announcing the complete opposite at this time. We think that we are able to reduce rates and provide the same outstanding service that you and your clients/referrals are expecting from our company. We understand that something is also lost when rates are reduced. This is not the case with this reduction in rate. The changes will affect a few services but not for all clients.

The new rate for our inspection of Residential Buyers will be $375 for any home up to 3000 SQ FT. Any home above 3000 SQ FT will be given a fair estimate for the size of home.

The new rate for Pre-sale (for Sellers) Inspection will be $275 up to 3000 SQ FT. This rate is reduced due to helping Homeowners get an extra set of eyes on your home to help mitigate any possible issues that may cut into your profit for the sale of your home.

The new rate for Regular Home Maintenance Inspections will be $275 up to 3000 SQ FT. Homeowners that want to stay on top of items in the home that will potentially fail or they just want to stay informed about the condition of their home. Being proactive on maintenance and repairs of items that they have lived with and never realized there was a problem.

What are the changes that will be affected by these changes? Previously, all inspections included a re-inspection with every rate. This was built into the program we are using and now we have better control of that program. A minimum fee will be charged for any re-inspection required or requested.

Fuel service charge will be applied for any inspection outside the 1 hour travel time from Hampton GA.

We look forward to providing excellent service for your clients and referrals.

We make sure your House will make a Great Home!

No one ever counts what the cost of experience and education. My failures and successes have cost me and helped me. Why reinvent the wheel.... Let me be the professional I'm trained to be. It will cost less and you get the benefit of getting the job done right the first time.

A customer asked me how much it cost to do this job....
I answered him: $ 1500
He said: So expensive for this job?
I asked: How much do you think it would cost you?
He answers me: $ 800 maximum... That's a pretty simple job right? !"
- For $ 800 I invite you to do it yourself.
- But.... I don't know how to.
- For $800 I'll teach you how to. So besides saving you $700, you'll get the knowledge for the next time you want
- It seemed right to him and he agreed.
- But to get started: you need tools: A welder, grinder, chop saw, drill press, welding hood, gloves etc...
- But I don't have all these equipment and I can't buy all of these for one job.
- Well then for another $300 more I'll rent my stuff to you so you can do it.
- Okay, he says.
- Okay! Tuesday I'm waiting for you to start doing this work
- But I can't on Tuesday I only have time today.
- I'm sorry, but I'm only available Tuesday to teach you and lend you my stuff. Other days are busy with other customers.
- Okay! That means I'm going to have to sacrifice my Tuesday, give up my tasks.
- I forgot. To do your job yourself, you also have to pay for the nonproductive factors.
- That is? What is this?"
- Bureaucratic, tax, vat, security, insurance, fuel etc.
- Oh no!... But to accomplish these tasks, I'm going to spend more money and waste a lot of time!
- Do you have them? You can do it to me before?"
- Okay!
- I'll make you all the material you need. Truck loading is done Monday evening or Tuesday morning you'll have to come by 6 loading the truck. Don't forget to be on time to avoid traffic jams and be on time
- At 6??? Nope! Too early for me! I used to getting up later...
- You know, I've been thinking. Y ' all better get the job done. I'd rather pay you the $1500. If I had to, it wouldn't be perfect and it would cost me a lot more.

When you pay for a job, especially handcrafted, you pay not only for the material used, but also:
- Knowledge
- Experience
- Study
- Tools
- Services
- Time to go
- punctuality
- Accountability
- Professionalism
- Accuracy
- Guaranteed
- Patents
- Sacrifices
- Safety and security
- Payment of tax obligations

No one can denigrate other people's work by judging prices. My prices to do this would be much higher than it says here for that job but its the point not the amount.
Only by knowing all the elements necessary for the production of a certain work can you estimate the actual cost.

I am sharing it to support craftsmen and entrepreneurs.

"Skipping the home inspection? Northern Kentucky couple has a warning"

Many homebuyers these days are skipping inspections, and waiving contingencies to buy a home. One Kentucky couple now regrets doing that.
