This is our second time using the company for home inspection and it's never short of great attention to details. Stephen made it easier by not being too technical during the walk through, he was friendly too. We received the inspection report in about an hour after the walk through, detailed as expected and usual.Bonus: we were able to book the appointment within 3 days of contact. Stephen was willing to work with our availability even if it was a weekendThanks for an awesome job!

Outstanding service! Stephen Densmore was very thorough and gave us a detailed inspection report for our new house in a matter of days from requesting. He pointed out everything that needed attention but also was very clear about the absolutely important stuff that just needed to be fixed for safety and insurance purposes. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good quality and efficiently done home inspection.

This is our second time working with Steve within the past year and couldn’t ask for anyone better. He is kind, friendly and professional. He never misses a beat during the inspections and has taken an extra 1-2 hours to make sure we know what he seen in the house. If you are looking for a thorough home inspection, I 100% recommend Steve and the guys at A Buyers Choice. We will be using him again for another property.

Nicole Greeley

Had an inspection done a week ago for a triplex property purchase and were so appreciative of Stephen's help and expertise. Gave us great confidence in the home. Discovered several items we were able to have addressed before purchase. Communication and reporting were thorough and quick. Thanks again for the great work, and hope to work with you again soon on future purchases!

Graham Pearson

We are first time homebuyers and this first experience was great. Stephen did a very thorough job, provided us with insight, and was able to answer any questions we had. He helped us feel at ease with the results and was very professional. During the time of our inspection, the attic was not accessible, however, he was in contact with the home owner and made a second trip to the property to check the attic for us. Even though we did not purchase the house, we were very happy with the service we were provided. Thanks, Stephen.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Stephen Densmore. He was very informative and professional. Not only did he take the time to walk through the house pointing out things that will need to be done before we move in but also took the time to explain what we should do once we move in. We thought we were going to be overwhelmed with the information that would come out of the inspection but he took his time to explain every little thing to us and we walked out with a huge weight lifted off our shoulders.I highly recommend Stephen!

vanessa hookey

12:23 13 Oct 22

Stephen was absolutely wonderful. He explained everything in great detail and highlighted what were the main concerns in the inspection. The report layout is easy to follow and not overwhelming. Stephen did a great job in summarizing any critical concerns as well as breaking up the report by sections to keep it easy to follow with detailed photos of every area. I cannot thank Stephen enough for his services and I highly recommend him for your home inspections.

The home inspection was thorough and informative. It identified not only items that the vendor needs to address but also a set of valuable recommendations for the purchaser, to keep the house well-maintained. The inspector was able to answer all questions immediately, during the walk-through.

Glyn George

13:10 04 Aug 22

Fantastic experience. He took the time to explain everything and was able to do so in a way that was meaningful and impactful. There is no better Home Inspector in Atlantic Canada.

Kristopher Mulcahy

23:03 03 Aug 22

Stephen has done 3 home inspections for me and I’m really happy with his work. The PDF file he puts together is super clean and professional. Lots of pictures, great description, and very thorough. Having an inspection that is so well laid out makes life easy when you are getting home insurance and the broker is asking you for specific details. I find myself referencing Stephen’s report often. Will absolutely refer friends to Buyer’s Choice.

Nick Kelly

14:10 27 Jul 22

Stephen was very professional and the report was amazing. I was sorry to miss seeing him in person to go over things at the property, but the report spoke for itself. He called to inform me of critical findings and how to read the report. He answered all of my questions, and was available to answer more later. Worth the money.

Karen Shipley

Stephen is the absolute best you could ask for. Very detailed and descriptive in our walk thru of the home and the report couldn't be more clear. You'll come away from the experience feeling very confident about knowing any potential concerns or opportunities to improve the efficiency of your home. To top it off he's just a really personable friendly person who I will recommend over and over to friends and family who need this service. If you need an inspection don't waste time looking any further. Hire Stephen!

Stephen is kind, professional and thorough in his home inspection. He clearly identified red flags and potential problem areas that helped me negotiate in the purchase of a home as well as plan for ongoing maintenance and improvements. I would definitely hire him again if needed and highly recommend him.

Johanna Maulawin

13:29 28 May 22

Extremely professional and helpful especially as we are overseas and not able to view the house ourselves. Attention to detail was amazing and the offer to explain and discuss his findings were greatly appreciated. The report was thorough and covered just about every aspect of the house. I would have no hesitation in using them again or recommending to others.

I am currently in the process of buying a home in Newfoundland and I am originally from Newfoundland but unfortunately I am in the other province currently. Stephen took the time to do a zoom meeting with me and walked me through the property and point out the things in the inspection that he had noted. Super friendly and descriptive and helped me understand everything that he would be documenting in the report. The report was amazing easy to understand and very helpful. I would highly recommend Stephen in a heartbeat. Thank you again for making this a seamless and easy experience.

Michelle Nugent

We wanted a home inspection within a couple days of contacting him. He was very quick to squeeze us in. We received a prompt report of the findings, and his report was very thorough. He had other recommendations listed for us outside of the critical listings. He offered to do a home walk through with us and a telephone call to go over the findings. I’m very pleased and happy with the service we received and if we were to ever purchase again, i would reuse.

Stephen was prompt, professional and easy to talk to. He was able to respond an schedule inspection quickly. Due to unforseen circumstances we were unable to do our inspection walk through the day of. It was no problem and Stephen accommodated us and schedule a walk through the next day, no questions asked. Good experience.

Stephen was very thorough and made detailed comments with images for our inspection. I will use him again when the need arises!!

Dianne Leece

19:43 17 Sep 21

There's a reason why Stephen has over 100 5 star reviews. For me to provide details outlining the quality of his work would just sound like a repeat of every other review. I'm the type of person that shops around for the best price, however, after scrolling through the majority of the reviews and speaking briefly with Stephen on the phone, I scheduled the inspection right on the spot. I'd say it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Even the realtor and the seller were impressed with the level of detail in his inspection. Any potential home purchases I have in the future will be inspected by Stephen!

Brian Lane

11:30 08 Aug 21

Stephen was an exceptional and very thorough home inspector, we appreciate the time he took after the inspection to walk through the house and explain things to us. We feel much more comfortable purchasing our home knowing it was inspected very well. I would highly recommend using them for home inspections!Thank you Stephen!
