Services
Most home buyers typically have a home inspection done after they have successfully made an offer to buy a house. This is what is called a (buyer's) pre purchase home inspection. Few buyers realize that they can order a home inspection before offering a bid. There are several special situations that can call for a pre offer home inspection.
A pre listing home inspection (seller's) is generally done before putting your home on the market. This type of inspection is normally paid for by the home seller or listing agent. This type of home inspection is becoming more popular with home sellers because of the many benefits it comes with. For one, it can help remove any doubt the buyer might have regarding any initial concerns.
The pre purchase home inspection (buyer's) is a standard part of the real estate transaction. This is the type of home inspection most people are familiar with. It accounts for approximately 90 to 95% of all home inspections. The main purpose behind this type of inspection is to ensure that there are no major deficiencies that would cause you to change your mind about buying the house.
As part of the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act, builders in Ontario are required to be registered with Tarion, and must also provide new home warranty coverage. Tarion is there to protect the rights of new home buyers, and ensure that builders honour the statutory warranties by enforcing the overall terms of the Act.
If you would like a quote for a home inspection, please provide the following info so I can provide a more accurate quote: house type, approximate age and square footage, as well as the reason for the inspection. Let a professional certified home inspector handle the inspection of the house you are looking to buy or sell.

We hired Jason to do a home inspection prior to our one year warranty with Tarion on our townhome.
He did quite a comprehensive good job. It is amazing how many items one can miss that a professional can point out.
I would recommend him to anyone buying, selling or getting warranty work done on their house.

We were referred to Ottawa area Home Inspections by a friend of ours. Jason was very professional and extremely courteous and was definitely there to look after us especially during a stressful time of buying a new home. On our initial request, he came out to look at a home that we were planning to buy. Jason did the full inspection and let us know in advance that there may be some issues concerning the foundation. Due to his professionalism, and from what I could tell great knowledge in the field, we agreed and decided to pass on the home. Months later when we had found our new home, we called

Mr. Forget conducted a very helpful inspection of our home, pointing out anomalies as he went along and spending time with us at the end to re-cap the results. His easy professional style was very much appreciated. I strongly recommend he be asked by others to inspect their homes.

We have had the pleasure of a real professional when we hired Jason Forget ... we only wish we could meet the level of meticulous detail that Jason brought to the table ... he was instrumental in completing home inspections for us on a number of occasions that allowed us to make sound decisions prior to finalizing our home purchase... we would have incurred a number of high costs had we not received his professional services in the time we did ... thank you very much Jason 😃

I normally don't write reviews but my experience was so good I had to. I used Ottawa Area Home Inspections on October 15, 2019. Jason was very responsive to requests and flexible on timing (very short notice) prior to the inspection.
On inspection day he was on time, well prepared and walked me through everything he looked at. He was extremely thorough through out the house inside and out.
The next day he sent me the inspection report with pictures and detailed writeup.
A few days later Jason called me and asked me if I had any questions or concerns about the property...floored by this level
