Stacy M.
"My husband and I are both Realtors in the Bay Area. We sell, on average, 40 homes a year. One of the most important aspects of a home sale is the home inspection. The difference between a good inspector and a bad inspector can mean anything from lower priced offers to landing in court after a home sale. Viktor is exceptional at what he does because of his attention to detail, vast knowledge of a homes structure, customer service, and his commitment to honesty and integrity.

Discovering Viktor at NPI was like hitting the lottery. Working with him actually makes us look good to both our home sellers and those that purchase their homes. He shows up on time, he goes through every nook and cranny of a home in detail, if the client is present he educates them on his findings, and his reports come back with far more detail and explanation than others we have used in the past.

Viktor is now our "go to guy" when a home inspection is needed. We have not used anyone else since finding him and have no need for a backup because he will move heaven and earth to make sure our business needs are met.

To wrap it up, if you are in need of a home inspector for yourself or your clients - look no further! I cannot say enough positive about Viktor and I absolutely guarantee you will find a true professional with integrity and ethics...something you simply cannot find in our world today!"

"We've bought several homes throughout the U.S. We always used local home inspectors’ services in order to understand better home condition and possible further repairs.

Viktor Mikhailov inspected our house which we bought recently in December of 2021. Viktor is the best! He was thorough and professional and great to work with. Viktor was honest and forthright, extremely helpful, open, transparent, and reliable. I have never seen such detailed Inspection Report as Viktor provided to us after inspection was completed. It was accompanied with many pictures, comments and recommendations. Viktor inspected even very hard reachable places in the house. We bought a house with a crawlspace. This particular crawlspace has very limited access to some spots. Anyway, it is very important to know foundation condition for any house located in the area. Viktor explored every single inch of the crawlspace. Viktor did excellent job. His report helped us a lot!

If anybody looking for a professional and extremely helpful home inspector, we just strongly recommend to apply to Viktor. You will never regret about your choice!"
Leonid V.
"If you are looking for a company to do the property inspection, you won’t regret choosing National Property Inspections. This company has high ethical standards. They are a caring and very knowledgeable team which will examine your project needs and goals and will do the property inspection in the most efficient and economical way. The owner of the company oversees the inspection to ensure that every square foot of the building is checked, every crack found, every potential source of liability found, every hidden problem discovered. He will provide the report which is accepted by most banks. Highly recommend! A+++"

"Viktor is seriously the BEST of the best in home inspections! His inspections are thorough yet turned around a lighting speed, he's professional, punctual, and has a wonderful sense of humor.

His reports are organized and detailed which has been a huge help as a real estate agent in this market when home sales are quick so buyers and sellers want as much information about homes as possible.

Viktor does not only residential inspections but commercial and investment property inspections as well so his services are expansive. He's a joy to speak with and really goes above and beyond to deliver stellar service.

After reading through, using his inspection reports and interacting with him, I truly can't recommend him enough. He has become multiple agents "go to" for inspections and it's not a surprise why.

The platinum standard in customer service and property inspections!"
Drew B.
"Viktor is fantastic to work with! He’s my go-to for commercial property inspections. He’s a funny and very likable guy who brings a level of professionalism that I truly value in this field. He’s honest, reliable, and always creates accurate and thorough inspection reports all within a 24hr or even same day turnaround time. On top of this, his reports are very easy to follow even for people who are not familiar with technical inspection terminology. I highly recommend his services for anyone in need of a commercial or residential inspection!"
Yunting X.
"This is my first Google review. Victor's home inspection greatly exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely recommend Victor! He is very nice, professional and knowledgeable.

He thoughtfully arrived at my house around 10 minutes before the scheduled time to do the preparation work. During the inspection, he explained what he observed to me thoroughly and answered all my questions patiently. You don't know how many questions I had! For each question, Victor provided his valuable opinions and suggestions which helped me a lot for house maintenance. I learned so much from Victor!

As a detail-oriented person myself, I am very satisfied with Victor's inspection work because he paid a lot of attention to the home details that is so important as an inspector.

I feel grateful and lucky to choose Victor to inspect my home!"
James W.
"Working with Viktor a great experience. He explained all the issues very carefully and completely. He had a variety of nice tools which gave us more information about the house than I’m use to getting. He was very thorough and the report was much more clear than the report I got from the selling agent and with more information and recommendations. I would definitely recommend working with him again. They also provide the service to inspect your own work at a lower cost if you do diy which is nice."
Catherine Z.
"Viktor is the best home inspector in bay area! He is very professional and pays attention to details. He always spends extra time with our clients to explain any issues. He has a lot of knowledge about the building codes, safety tips, etc., which is a big plus for the clients, no matter if it's the buyer or seller. He is always our first choice when my clients a home inspection."

"Viktor was very friendly and so knowledgeable. I was very satisfied with the home inspection. He went over all the information and did a great job explaining every issue and how to cost efficiently fix them. I definitely recommend him and will use his service again in the future."

"Viktor is the best Home Inspector that I have ever worked with. He not only provided the professional inspection but also excellent customer service. For many first time home buyers, they always have questions or concerns with the property. Viktor is always the one who can answer and educate what the owner can do to improve to the property. It was definitely joyful and worry-free to work with Viktor."
