Our Client Testimonials

Here’s what our inspection clients have to say about their experience with NPI.

Beyond impressed with the professionalism, thoroughness, and report from our home inspection! My only regret is not using them for our first home. Their report greatly surpassed the one we received from another company on our previous home. Cannot recommend enough!
Brian C.
Jay is the best! Communication was great and his report was extremely thorough. Jay took the time to sit down and review the report with us as well as showed us the spots that he marked in the report. Highly recommend!
Carter C.

Jay was outstanding to work with and we highly recommend him! He was very thorough, professional, and timely. The report itself was incredibly detailed and very helpful as we look to buy our new house. Again, we cannot recommend Jay enough.
Austin S.
Jay did an amazingly thorough inspection and took the time to walk me through the house, explaining the report in detail. He answered all of my new homeowner questions in a way that was easy to understand and made me feel confident heading into my closing date. Highly recommend him for any residential inspection!
Jade S.
Couldn’t have asked for a more smoother 11-month home inspection! Jay was great at responding to emails and setting the appointment up. He laid out his plan when he arrived, went through his findings in detail at the end, and had a quick turnaround when sending the report. Highly recommend for any home inspection!!
Justin N.
My experience with Jay at National Property Inspections Iowa City was fantastic. As a first-time homebuyer, I really relied on him and his expertise to guide me through the process. He was very professional, extremely detail-oriented and kind. I would definitely work with him again!
Wes E.
Jay did great work! He looked at everything, and expressed concerns over issues he saw. He went over my new place with a fine-tooth comb, letting us know what needed to be taken care of before the final sign and move-in date. 5/5, would definitely use again if and when I were to move!
Robert C.
Very thorough report that was easy to understand. The inspector worked with us and briefed us the report over facetime as we were out of state. He was very professional and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. I would recommend their services to anyone looking to have their home inspected. Great job, thanks!
