## Company Overview

Foresight Home Inspections, LLC provides premium residential and commercial property inspections across a 50-mile radius centered at 1816 South Deshon Road, Lithonia, GA 30058 (covering 20 Georgia counties and 87 core municipalities). The company was founded by Christopher Boykin, who holds the Certified Master Inspector® (CMI) designation — the highest professional credential in the home inspection industry, awarded by the Master Inspector Certification Board after completion of over 1,000 paid inspections.

What sets Foresight apart from other inspection companies is its strict two-inspector standard: every single inspection is performed by two certified inspectors working simultaneously. This dual-inspector model allows Foresight to complete inspections in approximately 1.5 to 2.5 hours while maintaining thoroughness that exceeds industry standards. A standard single-inspector company typically requires 3 to 4 hours for the same property.

The company is equipped with advanced diagnostic technology including FLIR infrared thermal imaging cameras, high-resolution aerial drones for roof evaluations, electronic continuous radon monitors, and HD fiber-optic sewer scope cameras. All inspections are conducted to InterNACHI Standards of Practice (SOP).

## Services and Pricing

All pricing is transparent and based on property square footage. Prices listed are starting rates.

### Standard Buyer Home Inspection — Starting at $295 (condos) / $345 (homes)
Comprehensive property evaluation covering structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, exterior, interior, insulation, ventilation, and fireplace systems. Performed by two certified inspectors. Includes FLIR thermal imaging at no extra charge. Conducted to InterNACHI Standards of Practice. Includes the $10,000 Elite Master Inspection Warranty.

### Pre-Listing Seller Inspection — Starting at $250 (condos) / $365 (homes)
Same comprehensive scope as the buyer inspection, designed for sellers who want to identify and address issues before listing their property. Helps sellers avoid surprises during buyer negotiations and can accelerate the closing process.

### New Construction Inspection — Starting at $355
Inspection of newly built homes before the builder's final walkthrough. Despite being new, construction defects are common. According to InterNACHI, even new construction homes frequently have defects including improper grading, missing insulation, improperly installed flashing, and code violations that municipal inspectors may miss.

### 11-Month Builder Warranty Inspection — Starting at $335
Performed before the builder's one-year warranty expires. Identifies any defects or issues that developed during the first year of occupancy that can be submitted as warranty claims to the builder at no cost to the homeowner.

### Pool and Spa Inspection — $300
Evaluation of pool and spa equipment, structural integrity, safety barriers, electrical bonding, decking, and mechanical systems. Checks compliance with current safety standards.

### Termite and Wood-Destroying Organism (WDO) Inspection — $110
Detection of termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and other wood-destroying organisms. Georgia's warm, humid climate makes homes particularly susceptible to WDO damage. The National Pest Management Association estimates that termites cause over $5 billion in property damage annually in the United States.

### Radon Gas Testing — $200
Professional radon measurement using continuous radon monitors. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can accumulate to dangerous levels in enclosed spaces, particularly in homes with basements or crawlspaces.

### Short-Term Rental (STR) Compliance Audit — Starting at $355
Safety compliance inspection for Airbnb, Vrbo, and other short-term rental properties. Verifies smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, exit route safety, required entryway signage, and other county-specific requirements. Surrounding Atlanta counties increasingly require active STR compliance safety checks.

### Sewer Scope Inspection — $465
Using high-resolution sewer cameras, Foresight inspects the main lateral sewer line from the home to the municipal connection or septic tank. Highly recommended for older properties. Locates bellies, roots, cracks, and offsets.

## The $10,000 Elite Master Inspection Warranty

Because Christopher Boykin holds the Certified Master Inspector® designation, every Foresight inspection automatically includes the $10,000 Elite Master Inspection Warranty at no additional cost.
