About Us:

Joseph, owner of VA HOME INSPECT, LLC and Former Disabled Veteran of The Marine Corps.

My cousins own "The Lebanese Taverna" restaurant and I frequent all restaurants with R.E.Agents. Come with me and become V.I.P. at the Taverna. My cousins, Danny, David, Grace and Gladys are all owners and they have twelve restaurant locations. I used to work at the Pentagon Row location and sometimes still do to fill in. I am very close with my cousins and I can provide you with a discount for large orders. The Lebanese Taverna is well known for catering open houses and R.E. Events. If you hold a brokers open or open house and advertise The Lebanese Taverna, many, many more people will come to the open or brokers' open. Again, I can give you a nice discount.

My family came to this country 45 years ago and each member has been successful in business. Most work in the hospitality industry while some are educators and doctors. I am very proud of my family for the way they treat each other.!!

I have been living in the DC area my whole life, 31 years. I am familiar with all the types of houses in the VA,DC and MD area. I provide excellent referrals to the agent who recommended me for their home inspection.

24 Hour Service if Needed. Continuing Phone and In-Person Support for my Clients.

I started as a home inspector working inside a real estate office as assistant manager. I was coordinating the deals and files. I also learned alot of real estate law and ethics. I followed each deal (sometime over a hundred) until closing. By doing this, I saw all the inspections that were being ordered. I then decided that Home Inspection was the path I was going to take. So I did. It took me one year to become VA Certified and Insured. It wasn't easy and I took alot of risks. The risks are starting to pay off with the birth of new projects I am doing.

I have a telephone hotline open for R.E. professionals that they can use when at a property and need an immediate answer or anytime.

I have a pre-sale inspection service for half the price of a regular inspection. Please visit my website. Please copy and paste into browser http://www.PreSaleHomeInspection.com. Remember these are half the price.

Radon, Mold service available.

Areas of Expertise

I perform general safety inspections in homes (condos, THs, SFHs). I specialize in teaching buyers and owners how to maintain their homes' good condition for maximum resale value. As well as finding health issues for buyers, I also show them what to do and what not to do. I put everything I said verbally on a hard copy report and on an electronic report.

I specialize in having items fixed that need fixing. I don't fix any items until 12 months after inspection but I have many friends who specialize in all aspects of home repair. I can get it fixed....Anytime....No problem.

I would like to stress that First Time Home Buyers are my specialty as well becuase I love to answer questions. I pride myself in the fact that I also specialize in calming nerves. Buyers can get overly worried and I dedicate my undivided attention to help them relax and enjoy the real estate process.

I have translator friends that speak all languages.

LockBox Access to VA, MD, DC and W.VA. with 24 Hour Service if needed.

Buying a home is very stressful and buyers are skeptical of everyone in the business. I put buyers' worries to rest when buyers spend some time with me and they realize I am out for their best interest. The buyers will learn what they have only dreamed. They will know more than their neighbor when I get done with them.

I have been in the business of Home Inspections for almost three years in the Greater Washington area. I taught myself the business by reading and going to different meetings. I take continuing education everyday for at least 30 minutes. I believe that satisfaction is not complete until I close my textbook. I am a former marine and I know what it means to work hard.

I specialize in making all parties come to terms with the findings of the home inspection. Sometimes buyers can "freak out". This is no good. I calm down the tension caused from buying a home.

What good is a house if it's not maintained properly. Think you will have problems selling later. Well, you might. I make sure it doesn't happen if you do what I say.

Testimonials

"I hired Joseph to perform a home inspection at a condo property I was interested in buying. I knew something was up because it was priced well below other condos in N.VA of comparison. I called VA HOME INSPECT and Joseph came out. The condo unit ended up having rat-holes with vermin roaming loose within the walls. I was so scared and pulled out of the deal. 3 other units were for sale in the same building. The building only had 9 units and they were on the market for 100+ days each?? Joseph told me that he would perform the other inspection for me for half price. This was great to hear from a home insepctor. Joseph of course doesn't want to do that and he felt the pinch as did my agent and myself regarding this unit. Thank Goodness Joseph was available to assist me..Thank You, Joseph Najm". -Teresa Smith

"Joseph is the best home inspector that I could have found. He was thorough, explained everything to me and made sure I understood what he said, he provided me with his undivided attention and after it was all done, Joseph put my worries to rest." -Sara White.

"I called Joseph to perform a home inspection for me on a New Construction Property because his ad said half price for vacant new homes. I am so glad I did. The furnace flue was not attached to the furnace. The furnace's exhaust gases were blowing into the house. He checked for Carbon Monoxide and his Carbon Monoxide meter almost blew up. I couldn't believe it, my agent couldn't believe it and neither could my 2 brothers. I saved alot of money that day and possibly my life because I did buy that property. Thanks again, Joseph". -Dee Dee Fleming

"Home Inspections are a neccessity today due to all the hazards that exist or could possible exist. I didn't realize that until I read Joseph's report and saw the hazards. Joseph was great and I will tell my broker and fellow agents about him".! -Tammy Fox.

"Joseph is incredible, he stays at the property until all questions are answered and the clients understand what has been discussed. I have never met him before this inspection and I can't wait to see him again. He's kind of cute too". -Naomi Johnson

"Joseph is unbelievable, I called him to do an inspection in Sterling for a non-vacant home. Since it was the third time I called him, he gave me a fifty dollar discount and told me that every three home inspections, the price drops by fifty dollars. Not only is he smart, quick and have lockbox access, he is a good business man too". -Charbel Khawand.

"I had a client that only spoke Spanish, Joseph brought a translator with him because I couldn't be at the inspection. The client told me later that Joseph's inspection was great and that she learned alot on how to maintain the house for maximum resale. Thanks again, Joseph". -Kathy Shin

"Joseph came to my office to introduce himself to me, the broker. I liked his pitch so I decided to tell one of my agents about him. My agent, Sarah, thought Joseph did a good job so I used him again. Eventually, he became the featured inspector in my office. He is an asset because I have alot of new agents who have passed the exam, but don't know the first things about houses. Joseph set up an email list and sends us all weekly emails of updates. I did not meet Joseph, Joseph came to me. I am so happy he is with us". Grace Chung
