Providing Confidence In Your New Home,

A home is probably the largest purchase you’ll ever make,
so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. For most people, buying a new home is one of the most important decisions they will make. There are many details to think about--whether selecting a price range, choosing the number of bedrooms or bathrooms or searching for the best mortgage rate.

Buying, (or selling) a home can be a complicated process. Let JPHunter Property Inspections make this step easier by providing you with excellent customer service and a home inspection report you can rely on.

Testimonials

Professional and thorough. James took his time and inspected the house completely
- J.C., Binghamton NY, November 2023
I would recommend James to any prospective buyer. He was extremely professional, courteous, and very responsive to all my questions and concerns. I asked for some clarification on one particular item in the report and he replied almost immediately to explain further. The level of detail was great in the report, and I really appreciated how he explained in both comments and pictures all the various line items. I felt much better proceeding with our home purchase after reading the inspection report; it was very thorough and made some suggestions on what to look out for and how to fix some minor issues.
- S.C., Niagara Falls NY, October 2022
James was fantastic for our inspection! He was very flexible with the schedule we needed, open to an unplanned last minute change, and was very communicative the whole time. He was straightforward and helpful as this is our first home purchase. We really appreciated his help!
- S.W., September 2022
James was very punctual with our inspection appointment and with the return of phone calls. He is very professional but with a friendly, collaborative manner. The inspection report he presented was very organized and easy to follow and understand. We absolutely will recommend him as the opportunity arises.
- G.T., Johnson City NY, July 2022
I know a couple of others that have utilized James Hunter?s services in the past so I recommended him to my client, who also is my son. He has a great service with fair prices and we ordered the ?Country Package?. My son and husband met him at the property partway through the inspection process, and he walked them through what he found and his recommendations/prioritization. His inspection report was very thorough and timely and was a huge help in proceeding with my son?s home purchase. He was excellent to deal with and very responsive. He was very personable and caring at the inspection appointment as well. I would highly recommend James and will utilize him again in the future if needed. This was money well spent and a great choice. Thanks again James!
- A.H., Corning NY, January 2022
James was wonderful to work with! I am in the process of buying my first home, and I really appreciated the time James took to walk me through the property and discuss the immediate issues, but also the possible changes to make in the future that will improve the home further. James was great at explaining everything and meeting me at my knowledge level. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I definitely recommend JP Hunter Property Inspections to anyone who is looking to get a home inspection.
- R.B., November 2021
James was excellent! He did a very through job. Very kind and a true professional. The way the report was outline was wonderful and he answered every single one of my questions without hesitation. I highly recommend using James for all home inspections.
- M.T., Binghamton NY, June 2021
We highly recommend James for home inspections. He was very kind, thorough and knowledgeable. He got the report back to us ASAP and made sure to really explain the issues. We have no complaints!!
- C.K., May 2021
Mr. Hunter was not only very professional but he was a great guy, as well. He was on time, friendly and certainly pointed out things we would not have been aware of without his expertiece. It was like hooking up with an old friend that knew what he was talking about. If you are looking to buy in this area my wife and I highly recommend this man and his company. He was terrific all around and was more than a big help ! Michael and Anne Heaphy
- M.H., Beacon NY, January 2021
As a first time Home Buyer I had a lot of questions for James. He was very patient and took the time to really explain everything. His inspection was very thorough, and I would definitely use James again if I ever need another inspection! Definitely would recommend James.
- D.D., Easton PA, December 2020
James has done more than one inspection for us. He is always so friendly and professional. He is very thorough with his inspections. He takes the time to explain any and all items that he may find. I would highly recommend James to anyone! Robin/Leo, Endicott, NY
- R.N., endicott NY, October 2020
James was very thorough and knowledgeable; he produced a report about the inspection with no detail left out. His report and recommendations were very helpful to our house buying experience. I would recommend James for anyone needing a house inspection!
- J.S., Newark Valley NY, September 2020
James was courteous when we spoke and performed the inspection at the agreed upon date and time. However, I am less than satisfied with the quality of the inspection and the accuracy of their quotes. Despite stating the exact square footage of the home upon my initial phone call, I was hit with a large home fee when i was contacted to revise my inspection date to reflect mutual availability with the seller. Once the home was inspected a large amount of items were missed or not reported. When i called to discuss the report with James he was unable to mention any of the missed items without my prompting, some of which he met with statements to the effect of 'yes i did notice that but its not a problem'. And commented on the lack of grounds being supplied to the outlets in bedrooms not being a problem for code compliance, which is flat out wrong according to the NEC. Not to mention a concern to me as the would be home owner. The seller even commented on the missed items compared to the inspection they had done prior to the listing. Thankfully i already had that report to compare to or i would never have been notified about multiple issues with the home. I would not recommend James or his company to a friend, nor will I use them again.
- T.G., Brooklyn NY, July 2020
Worked with James for a second time to inspect my first home (First house fell through for other reasons). I felt very comfortable and confident that he was looking out for me. More importantly, he provides guidance on how to get the right information on any potential issues that aren't easily answered. He's very easy to get a hold of, and very good at explaining things. Super knowledgeable. I 100% recommend!
- B.Z., Binghamton NY, July 2020
We are very grateful for the information James provided us in our search for an investment property. We knew little about construction, but we gained much from what James shared with us. The housing market we're exploring is different from what we're used to; he educated us about the kind of materials, industry standards, and proper maintenance of a house's different components. We highly recommend James and his company to anybody who is serious about getting top-notch home inspection!
- T.C., March 2020
James was very thorough throughout the entire inspection process. He addressed all areas that needed our attention in person and in the reports. Reports were finished quickly, easily accessible and easy to read and follow.
- R.G., Warren Center PA, November 2019
James was outstanding. He was polite and walked me through the process and discussed every issue he found. He took his time to ensure everything was covered. Would highly recommend his services.
- J.K., Endicott NY, October 2019
James was very helpful and thorough. He had great prices and would highly recommend him to anyone in the future. The website is very easy to use and made payments easy as well.
- R.F., Endwell NY, September 2019
Extremely knowledgeable. Took the time to explain to us exactly what he was doing, and recommendations of what needed/should be repaired/replaced. Highly recommend him.
- S.C., Johnson City NY, August 2019
Mr Hunter was incredibly knowledgeable & made me feel comfortable at every step of this process. I love that I can zoom in on the pictures he took in his report. He was on site for about 3 hours which tells me he took a great deal of time looking at everything. I would recommend Mr Hunter in a heart beat.
- G.T., Whitney Point NY, July 2019

Very pleased with all levels of services from James. He promptly answered calls and worked me into his tight schedule to expedite my process. He was timely with his reporting and offered updates to the report as he found items that needed change in the initial report. Excellent work - thank you.
- R.M., Kirkwood NY, June 2018
James is a very thorough inspector. He found things that even the current home owner were unaware of. He took his time to answer all of my questions, no matter how big or small the questions were.....and there were several. This is my fourth home, but I am a firm believer in home inspection. The one time I did not have one was the worst purchase I ever made! I would recommend James because he is honest, hard working, reliable, on time, and a stickler for details. Thanks so much for doing a great job!
- C.S., June 2018
Very positive experience, would definitely recommend Mr. Hunter to friends and family. Made sure to explain what he was doing and looking at throughout the entire process.

- A.H., April 2018
James made this process very easy and we felt very comfortable with him. He gave us a lot of helpful information and made us feel confident in our new home. James was knowledgeable in all aspects of the house and we were at ease with his guidance. I was happy to have him look over everything with us and he made it easy to ask plenty of questions. After walking through everything with James I have no worries with moving forward into our new home. I can't thank him enough for his time and kindness.
- J.P., April 2018

- L.R., Vestal NY, March 2018
This is the first time I've been involved with a home inspection. With James at the helm it was a great experience. He explains everything he's doing, offers suggestions or explains issues that arise. All I can say it's a no-brainer to have him as an inspector. Excellent Job James!
- W.S., Endwell NY, December 2017
Thank you for taking your time and showing me areas of concern throughout the inspection of my first home! I appreciate the thorough job and timely report. I will definitely be recommending James to any friends or family looking for a home inspector!
- A.O., Glen Aubrey NY, November 2017
I would highly recommend James as your home inspector if you are buying a home. He was very thorough with my home inspection and explained everything to me as he was doing it. I received the full report within 5 days, and it was very detailed and easy to follow. I can now move into my new home with full understanding of its condition.
- B.D., Cortland NY, October 2017
Thank you Jim for being so thorough and taking the time to show me things and explain everything to me!
- J.H., Chenango Forks NY, October 2017
James was VERY thorough. He encouraged us to look at the house ourselves and point out any area of concerns we had. He was very prompt to reply to concerns and questions. We definitely felt like he was look out for our interests throughout the whole process. The only trouble we had was it took some time to get the radon test back (but I believe that is out of his control and related to the lab...we just had a very antsy seller).
- C.M., September 2017
James Hunter was a pleasure to work with. I had a pre-listing inspection done and he was very detailed. He discussed each of the items I might see on the report and gave me ideas how to remedy them. He was very professional! I feel confident that his report is very well done and will help me immensely!

- L.G., Endicott NY, July 2017
James is very professional and thorough. Answered all my questions and was available for followup. Took the time to point out points of information and provide education on some aspects. Excellent report and covered all the bases. The house was occupied at the time of inspection and he has offered to return once the house is vacated to do a second inspection. That's what I call customer service. Thanks James!
