Hi Ken! Here s my testimonial - feel free to edit: When I walked up the deck stairs, I was experiencing love at first site. The view of the lake was gorgeous. When Ken first walked up the deck stairs, his experience was quite different. He noticed that the first step was dangerous and not the proper measurements for the human step. I was blinded by the light that sparkled off the lake. I couldn t see that the poorly installed insulation in the A-Frame roof had cooked the wood. I couldn t see poorly installed fixtures and exposed wires. It goes on and on from there. Ken truly saved me from making a huge mistake. I was hearing the morning birds in my ears, not the tens of thousands of dollars that would only be the beginning in repairs and renovations. Phew! I thank my lucky stars that Ken is reputable and honest in his daily work. He doesn t just go through the motions of inspection but combs through the crawl space, wires, plumbing, fixtures, attic, and insulation, everything interior and exterior but also gives you detailed report of his findings. And believe me, if it is going to be an aggravation, dangerous or costly repair to the potential home owner, you want Ken there to point it out to you and help you understand the magnitude of the problem. Now on the flip side: You know Ken works for you. So when he gives you a clean bill of health on the house, it means that you have truly found home sweet home! Happy house hunting!

Hey Ken, Congratulations on completing your video. I think it's a terrific idea and I hope you make lots of money and can retire soon. ( I can hope for you anyways.) I've had to put my house hunting on a back burner due to not knowing if I'm losing my job, etc. If I don't move though, I am going to refinance and fix my place up. You were so right about getting people to come out and give me prices. What a nightmare. I wish you all the best with your new product, I predict it will be a big seller. Everyone should have one, even if you're not moving, just to help you keep your house in shape. Good luck. Debbie High Durham, NC. --TBK Inspections web-site

Kenneth, Thanks for your follow-up to my questions, I truly appreciate your time and very quick response. I actually purchased your inspection video from amazon.com back in February of this year, positive feedback was also left for your account. The fact that you took the time to answer my email so quickly shows your good character. I actually just completed another positive review of your video on amazon.com as it is well deserved (go check it out). Again, I just want to say that I appreciate your help and information; your advice will definitely help me to be a better, more informed home inspector. Best Regards, Kal --TBK Inspections web-site

This DVD packs alot of information everyone needs!
I am fairly new in the Home Inspection; buying Real Estate game and wondered how I can increase my knowledge about the homes I inspect and buy for investment. I ran across the above video accidently and thought I would try it out. After all; a two hour video has to contain some material; right! This guy does a two hour video on almost any item you can think of in a home; tells you what to look for and how. I've gained thousands of dollars worth of information for a very reasonable sum. I would say don't pass this one up if you are truly looking to gain insite into your investments. Best of all he has a check list in the last chapter of the DVD that you can print out and use on your own house hunting. Good Job!
My House, Your House was enlightening and entertaining!
After veiwing this DVD I don't feel quite so ignorant about home buying. I realize I still need a professional home inspector to inspect my house when I choose one to purchase, but now I feel like I know more and can weed out some of the houses with significant problems that would cost alot of time and money. Thanks Ken! There's a lot of info in this DVD. I'm sure I will reference often after my home purchase. You were easy to understand and a pleasure to follow around!

This DVD is a must for all persons considering buying a home!
It is a two-hour video of an actual home inspection that licensed Professional Home Inspector Ken Tabak directs the viewer intricately through room by room. No detail is left unturned. From how to assess a home's foundation to determining roof condition, Ken knowledgeably informs clients of what to anticipate in terms of home inspection. Not only does he speak of home condition, but also how to maintain a home properly and economically. These home maintenance tips are invaluable!!
In this video, Ken lends his twenty years of home inpecting expertise to viewers in a concise, easy to understand, and compassionate manner. Viewers will truly feel like much more informed consumers in their personal home buying experience. A thorough Home Inspections Checklist is included in the DVD purchase. This is a great tool to not only accompany you during a home inspection, but to aid in the ever-important decision making process of whether a certain home fits your family's needs and budget.
Having had Mr. Tabak perform two home inspections personally, I can truly attest that his knowledge greatly imparted my ability to choose a home wisely.
I guarantee that after viewing this video and coupling it with Mr. Tabak's concise Home Inspection Check List, your home buying journey will be one that is empowering, well-informed, and ultimately rewarding.
Buying the right home for you and your family is an important decision, let it be one made with confidence!
