Dave G. was great. Responsive, professional, and very insightful. Would highly recommend others to consider him for home inspections. We had several discussions - completely available and accessible for questions, concerns, etc.
Total Property Inspections was quick to reach out to me about a new home inspection I needed. They were prompt, super communicative, friendly and reasonably priced. I received very informative and thorough explanations and I would highly recommend them!
Excellent inspection. David was meticulous and personable. Could not be more satisfied. Highly recommend!
My wife and I recently purchased a home in Townshend, VT. The home inspection was performed by David Goodman of Total Property Inspections-Goodman Group of Shaftesbury, VT. Mr Goodman was very thorough as he did the inspection and as he performed it, he pointed out each item of current or potential concern, along with recommendations for corrections and the timeframe to make same. A few were immediate and previous homeowner made the corrections prior to our close. Others will be made over time, following Mr Goodman’s advice. We spoke extensively during the inspection and Mr Goodman’s report was available almost immediately. He also made himself available for several follow on discussions to answer all of our questions. He was very easy and pleasant to deal with at every interaction. We would highly recommend Mr Goodman and Total Property Inspections - Goodman Group to anyone requiring a home inspection. Dave and Marietta Wilgus
