About Us: Satisfaction guaranteed or money refunded

Certified Home Inspections are satisfaction guaranteed or money refunded. I am thorough and unbiased. I am conscious of time and protective of legal positions. I ask the seller to complete a "declaration form" and I include a "hold harmless" clause in the "pre inspection agreement to ensure that agents will not be held responsible for my home inspection. I like the ebay system where I ask for client comments, bad or good, and ask for referrals so all parties can build a business. I prepare a "show and tell" report for the client, encourage communication, and relationship building.

I have lots of testimonials from completed home inspections and positive comments from agents. I strive toward life long learning, attend relevant seminars, and complete courses: all to stay informed and current.

Certified Home Inspection is my only occupation. I am retired from a successful business, am financial comfortable, enjoy meeting people, and love to build businesses and synergistic relationships.

I have lived more than 14 years now in Kingston.

Areas of Expertise: 25 years of relevant experience

I am comfortable with folks in all walks of life. As a retired financial planner, I am comfortable with the economic equation of those in high or low economic positions. I have bought, renovated, rented, and sold numerous types of properties. The last commercial investment was an 8 lease unit..then renovated by adding a two floor extension, lifting the roof, and adding an extension to the rear of the building. This allowed the building to accommodate 12 tennants. This project took one year and the return on investment was well over 100%. I have bought, rented, and sold multiple units as well as many single family homes for investment purposes.

I have completed a large renovation and redesign project on my home in Kingston. With professional services from designers, trades people, and support companies, I have a good network of professionals that I can refer to with confidence about their skills and business practices.

Testimonials: where the rubber meets the road

"When I watched you doing the inspection, I will say that I was truly impressed. My wife and I do not normally use a home inspector as we believe they are all the same and is something we could do ourselves. Your detailed inspection of our new home and the info you provided was impeccable and I will recommend you to others" Ken & Barb Osborne.

Review:

We recently purchased our first house and had the pleasure of hiring Bill Marston of the Financial Toolbox for our home inspection. Bill examined the house from top to bottom in detail and provided a comprehensive home inspection report. We were very pleased with the report which included, along with a derth of information, pictures of the house and all of the things which need attention following the purchase. These photographs were particularly useful in that they show exactly where attention is needed and we do not need to rely on our memory at the time of the inspection, when there was so much new information being delivered. Especially useful were additional photographs of things like gas and water line positions so we would know where to turn things on and off once we moved in, which was to be nearly three months later. Our inspection left us with the feeling that we knew enough about the home to make an informed decision and know that we were making a solid investment. We felt that we got a first rate service from the Financial Toolbox and would not hesitate to recommend the service to friends and relatives.
