CLIENTS
Real Estate Professionals are our most important business partners
In most of our markets, we work closely with the real estate professionals who represent home buyers and sellers. The agents’ recommendations carry a lot of weight with their clients, and we are pleased to be the inspection service they refer to home buyers and sellers hundreds of times each month. This is a tremendous vote of confidence in the quality of our service. We could not be the success we are without strong real estate agent partnerships.
Important Benefits of Working with NBI
NBI utilizes the state-of-the-art computerized inspection system that insures the inspector observes and reports on every major component within the home. Our full narrative inspection report can be emailed to you and your clients typically within one to two business days.
NBI is backed by professional liability (errors and omission) and general liability insurance for your added protection. All inspections either meet or exceed the inspection standards set by the California Real Estate Inspection Association (CREIA), and the California Structural Pest Control Board (SPCB).
NBI saves you time by performing both the home and termite inspection at the same time. You disturb the seller only one time.
Having NBI perform your client's home and termite inspections, you will have only one responsible company to deal with in the event of post-inspection problems.
Why do real estate agents refer their clients to NBI for home and termite inspections?
We do not perform any corrective work or chemical treatments on any home we inspect. This means if we spot a problem during an inspection, we honestly think it is a problem that needs attention. Plus, even though NBI does not perform corrective work or chemical treatments, we are very knowledgeable about local repair prices.
As an added customer service we provide your clients with "Cost Approximations" for all the corrective work recommended in our termite reports. In this way, you can determine if contractor bids are fair. (We also provide you with a list of qualified contractors in your area that can perform all termite repairs. Refer your own trusted contractor or recommend one of the contractors listed in NBI's reports.) See Understanding California Termite Inspection Reports.

Why perform home and termite inspections?
Studies have found that home buyers spend less time inspecting their future home than they spend grocery shopping for one week. A home is typically the most expensive single acquisition you will ever make. Just as it is important to have a mechanic check out a used car, it is equally important to have a pre-owned home inspected by a professional home inspector.
It's false economy to select an inspection company based upon their inspection fee only. Often times a "FREE" or "Low Priced" inspection is far more expensive than a fairly priced inspection.
Even though NBI does not perform corrective work or chemical treatments, we are very knowledgeable of local repair prices. As an added customer service, we do provide you with "Cost Approximations" for all the corrective work recommended in our termite reports. In this way, you can determine if contractor bids are fair. We also provide you with a list of qualified contractors in your area that can perform all termite repairs. Use your contractor or use one of the contractors listed in NBI's reports.
Home Seller -
Why should a home seller get the property inspected?
Eliminate surprises by having your home thoroughly inspected prior to placing it on the market. Knowledge is power in all negotiations: Know what you are selling before you put it on the market. Too often sellers will enter into a sales contract that meets their predetermined net revenue requirements only to be confronted with unexpected expenses after the buyer's inspections are performed.
Understanding your responsibilities regarding the findings on home and termite inspection reports can save you thousands of dollars. Making repair decisions before you place your home on the market allows much more flexibility than what is possible after a buyer is involved.
