Jim was ahead of time, very easy to talk to and spoke in plane language throughout his VERY thorough investigation of our proposed purchase. He covered many important item that were overlooked in our investigation AND several that it seemed the current homeowner took care to disguise or hide. I would HIGHLY recommend Jim's investigative service. Thanks, Habitation Investigation! we will use you again in the future.Posted on Google![]()
