I highly recommend Greg Bradle and Lucent Property Inspections. I needed a home inspection and was able to line one up almost immediately. Greg's communication was lightning-fast and clear, which made it easy (particularly for someone who hasn't gone through this before). When he did the inspection, he was happy to have me tag along and provided incredibly helpful information. The inspection was extraordinarily thorough. The resulting report was clear, with tons of detailed photos and the ability to organize it into specific action plans. Overall, the inspection was a great deal in terms of price and value received.

I would highly recommend Greg for home inspection services. He was very timely and thorough in his process. The verbal summary at the end was very helpful and his report was very detailed with pictures included. Greg communicated everything well and made everything clear to us and made it a much easier process for us.

We are buying an older house in central Illinois and wanted a professional inspector's assessment of the needs of the house. Our short tour of the house with a real estate agent certainly wasn't going to reveal the house's deficiencies and needs. We considered numerous inspectors before choosing Lucent Property Inspections. We are most pleased with our choice. Greg listed the condition, implication, location with photos, task required to improve the condition, and needed time frame. He reviewed the report in person and provided additional benefits as well. It gave us peace of mind to have a comprehensive list of needs, whether major or minor, for our upcoming purchase.

Greg was very thorough in the inspection of my new home. His report was very detailed and pictures were very clear. He explained each section well and I liked how he classified each section based on it being ok, needing repair now, or an item to budget for to be replaced in the future. Would highly recommend using Lucent Property Inspections!

What’s included in a commercial property inspection report?
Your commercial property inspection report will include a detailed summary of your inspector’s findings. This entails an inventory of a property’s major systems and components, and an analysis of their condition. The goal of this report is to alert you of any issues that exist with your property and give you a better understanding of what a property’s strengths and weaknesses are. We also provide an opinion for a 5-year probable cost chart on each of the above mentioned systems.

The amount of time it takes to conduct a commercial property or building inspection depends on the size of the building or property. Typically, an inspection can be completed in 4–8 hours. The report will come a week or so later, after we complete the document review process, compile findings, figure probable costs, etc.
