Steven did an excellent job today 3/7/2020 inspecting the condo in Windermere, FL. I scheduled the appointment for 9:30am, Steven got there at 9am, excellent punctuality and work ethic!
Steven took his time to do a very thorough inspection pointing out all the major and minor problems. He is very knowledgeable and is very good at answering questions and explaining the issues. Very fair and honest.
I highly recommend using his services. He also does the drone photography, but we didn’t need it, since it’s a condo.

As a first time home buyer, I wasn’t familiar with getting an inspection done. I had a lot of questions, the inspector answered every single one of them in detail and made it a very easy process for me. He sent me a 20 page detailed inspection of every thing I needed to know and his prices are unbeatable. I was able to schedule within two days of contacting him and within an hour of finishing the inspection, I received a full report. He’s professional, helpful, works fast and responds quickly. He is definitely my go to for any future inspections and my realtor even asked for his information!

I hired Optimum Home Inspections to do a wind mitigation inspection. I’m very happy I did. Steven arrived promptly, had a lot of patience and even sent the report the same day. I would highly recommend him.

Steven Lobdell was absolutely fantastic! It was a pleasure to use his services. He conducted an extremely thorough inspection and upon completion he pointed out things that the average eye wouldn't even notice especially with the proof. Minor repair was needed which the previous owner took care of immediately.
The inspection lasted about 2 hours. Afterward, he provided via email and extremely detailed inspection report filled with pictures the same day.
I would definitely recommend Steven Lobdell to all my friends. I can honestly say that this was the best money I've ever spent and choosing Optimal Home Inspections .
