John was communicative and thorough throughout the process. His inspection report was easy to understand and follow, and any areas of concern were accompanied by good pictures of what the concerns were, and why they should be addressed. Thank you John for your attention to details and recommendations for the home!

We would absolutely recommend John Jacobs as a home inspector. John is very thorough in all areas of the inspection process. His report includes short video clips which are exceedingly helpful, and his review comments are in layman's terminology, making it easy for the buyers to comprehend and make important decisions regarding the home inspection. John takes the time to include homeowner maintenance tips in specific areas. These professional suggestions assist new owners in preventing depreciation and damage to the home, and therefore extend its lifetime and value! John is very easy to work with and available for questions. His prices are very reasonable and his work is priceless! I can't say enough about our appreciation for John Jacobs' inspection and report on our prospective purchase.

In over 30 years practicing real estate, having hundreds of home inspections completed for either buyers or my seller clients, I cannot speak highly enough about John's inspections. Over the years, I always tell clients that home inspectors always miss something important and cite things that are not...
This is not true for John. He has never disappointed me and I use John exclusively on homes I purchase.
John delivers in depth reports with amazing photos and 3-d images and when you care about the details...he's the best!!!
Thank you for being there!

As a licensed realtor I have had many years of inspections. Let us just say that some inspectors are very poor,lazy or inept in their reports.
John Jacobs was tasked with inspecting an unusual property. He was professional and very thorough in both his oral and written report. 133 pages.
Yes I would recommend him.

I have been a Realtor in Missoula for 13 years and I recommend John to all of my clients, as well at to other Realtors. His work is thorough and his reports are second to none. John is very knowledgeable, and he is easily able to explain technical aspects of a home inspection to clients in laymen's terms that they can understand. If given a choice, I will never use a Home Inspector other than John for the transactions that I help my real estate clients with. He is an integral part of the high quality services I strive to provide for my clients, and is always my first choice when I need a home inspector.

John Jacobs is my go-to inspector. He is thorough, informative, and professional. His complete report is always done timely and includes everything you can think of that needs attention.

EXCELLENT JOB! JOHN WAS VERY ACCOMMODATING TO ARRANGE INSPECTION AROUND MY TIME FRAME. HE WAS PUNCTUAL, DETAILED, AND A GREAT COMMUNICATOR. LOVE THE EASE OF ONLINE SYSTEMS. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND JOHN'S SERVICES IN THE FUTURE.
- L.W., November 2016
John is always thorough and considerate. I appreciate that he is available to answer questions for clients (and me) as needed. The whole process can be so overwhelming to buyers, and being able to communicate concerns and ask questions makes a huge difference for them. I have full confidence in John and his common sense and knowledge. Thank you John!
- j.g., Missoula MT, October 2016
John is very knowledgeable and thorough. He is friendly with buyers and open to answering their questions. He is always a pleasure to work with!
One thing to improve on would be that if you are going to include videos in your report, it would be helpful to also include a still photo because when we agents download the report and send it to the seller as proof of things wrong, the video is lost in translation and not available for the seller to see. Food for thought!
- J.A., August 2016
Extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Took time to answer any questions about the house. Highly recommended
- J.H., July 2016
Great job John!
- R.J., June 2016

- S.H., April 2016
John, Thanks for doing such great work and providing photos, etc.!
- B.D., April 2016
John is at the top of my list of inspectors I use. Even though distance is sometimes a factor, I highly recommend John as his report is thorough and delivered to the client in such a way that the practical aspect of his findings is easy to understand, digest, and "gauge". As the buyer agent, and as the seller agent, I so appreciate that....it takes the reinterpretation out of the equation and makes it much easier to discuss the findings intelligibly with the client. Minimizing room for error and misunderstanding.
- W.M., Polson MT, February 2016
Thank you, John! You were kind, prompt, and created an immaculate report. My clients and I really appreciate your professionalism and I will definitely recommend you in the future! Really appreciate your hard work.
- N.C., February 2016
Danny and I are so impressed with your thorough and fast report. I think you looked at ever crack and corner. I am very pleased how you explained the construction in simple terms that anyone understand. The pictures you took are worth a million. I think you really enjoy your job because you go way above and beyond to help out your customers. Thank you very much in helping us realize our new home.
- M.D., September 2015
This will be the fourth home I've purchased in my 53 years and I've never experienced such a complete inspection. Not only did he address the problem areas but he also listed thorough instructions on how to rectify the situation and/or how often to do the maintenance needed. I am extremely happy I decided to use him as an inspector and would recommend him to anyone considering a home purchase.
- M.K., September 2015
Love the fact that you totally understand construction and have such an easy way of relating the information you find with the clients, keeping them calm and involved.

Such and awesome inspection! John J. obviously put a lot of time and energy into his end written product and we walked away with a document that will serve us for years to come. This is the most thorough inspection I have seen. Would do business with him again in a heartbeat. Thanks. Mike
- M.B., November 2014
Very pleased with John's product and presentation. Confident that ,as a buyer, we received good professional service and advice.
- B.A., August 2014
John inspected a house I was selling (hired by the buyer). I was so impressed with the job he did on that house that I hired him to inspect the house I was buying. He was very easy to work with and had very quick, efficient turnaround time on the report. It was emailed to me the morning after his inspection. It seems he has a good background in proper construction techniques and can accurately identify problems with houses, including water/waste systems, electrical, frame, roofing, insulation, and appliances to name a few. He seems especially detail oriented which is a very good quality to have for a home inspector. The report we received was very professional and detailed, with many excellent pictures (probably 40 or more) showing his findings. The other useful part of his inspection was that he briefly discussed possible remedial measures to take regarding issues with the house. Last, I liked that the report included reminders of annual maintenance to perform after we move in.
- J.F., February 2014
