Report
In early May of 2021, Paul Parella of Elite Home Inspections did the home inspection of the townhome condo we were under contract to purchase. Paul was recommended by our buyer's agent. I appreciated the way he patiently explained everything he noticed. His report was thorough and included references to code and other legal requirements when applicable. We were able to close and move in knowing what to expect. I'm happy to recommend Paul's home inspection service.
