The Long Beach Home Inspector

I wanted to say a big thank you to Fred. He was punctual and very friendly. He inspected the property i am currently in the process of purchasing and couldn’t have picked a better person for the job. He is professional and he ended up saving me some money in the process when he found items that needed to be fixed in my future home. I asked the seller to take care of these and they have agreed. I believe that Fred is the right person to inspect your home.
Thank You Fred,
Jose Rivera

I hired Fred to inspect a Lakewood home and am highly pleased with a very excellent report. I called him today to thank him for his report with 1 day turn around and told him I would review him positively on Unilocal.A good inspector and very fairly priced service… thumbs up!

Fred was patient when we had issues getting into the property, inspection was thorough and report delivered promptly. Would recommend 100%

I found Fred on Unilocal and the 5 star rating was right on the money! He provided prompt, thorough and reasonably priced services. I have used him for 2 4-​unit apartment buildings so far, and would highly recommend him!

What can I say about Mr. Fred Sweezer except that he is AMAZING! I am a first time home buyer and I do not have a clue with regards to buying homes. I found out that I opened escrow on a Thursday morning and my realtor was going on vacation on Saturday. She asked me to arrange the inspection for Friday. She gave me a list of Inspectors but none of them were available on Friday. I found Fred online and I liked his reviews so I gave him a call. He picked up the phone right away. He sounded so nice on the phone. I explained my situation and I asked if he was available to do the inspection the next day. Before I could finish, he said 1:30PM. I was shocked so I asked him again. He said he could do it on Friday at 1:30PM. I was so happy.
On the following day, my realtor arrived at the property before I did. When I walked in, I saw Fred and I thought… he reminds me of one of my Uncles. He looked very professional. He greeted me with a wonderful smile and he continued with his inspection. He took his time and he was very thorough.
When he completed the inspection, he explained everything in perfect detail. I felt well informed. When he got ready to leave, I almost wanted to give him a big olé hug but I remembered that he wasn’t my Uncle. LOL
I called him few couple of days later with some follow up questions and again, he took his time and explained everything to me.
His written report was very detailed and easy to understand.
I would recommend Fred’s inspection service to anyone. He’s a top notch guy.
I may even call him in the future for his handyman services. Way to go Fred.

I have used Fred for three inspections and have been incredibly please. He goes out of his way to accommodate my schedule, shows up early and prepared.
Additionally, he turns the report around in record time. Usually less than 24 hours. Fred is knowledgable and really understands his business.
I look forward to working with him in the future and will always refer him to my clients.

Fred was available within a 1 day notice. He provided a quick turn around time of 24 hours for report to be completed. He explained findings to the buyer and made the whole inspection process as simple as possible.

I was in need of a home inspection and I called Fred. He was friendly and accommodating to my limited availability. He showed up early and explained the process to me. After he finished the inspection he went over what was going to be on his report and answered all my questions. The report was through and had good pictures and explanations of all concerns. Fred exceed all my expectations. I highly recommend Fred as a home inspector.

I hired Fred to inspect a 2 unit duplex in Long Beach and he is now my go-​to guy for home inspections. Fred understands what it means to deliver quality ‘customer service’ which is hard to find nowadays. He is helpful, efficient, fair, honest and his fees are reasonable. My buyer client was also very pleased with Fred’s professionalism yet he was easy to talk to. No need to look any further for your local Home inspector.

Fred is a great Home Inspector. My team (The Monica Diaz Real Estate Sales Team) uses him all the time with our large investors and he always performs a top notch job covering all bases. We can always rely on his reports to be both thorough and efficient. I highly recommend him and will continue to use him whenever we have a property to inspect.

We hired Fred to do a home inspection on a 1920 Spanish Revival home in Signal Hill. He was punctual (early actually) and got right to work. He pointed out lots of little details we never would have caught on our own and was very knowledgeable as to the period details and construction methods as well as updates that were made or were not and should have. He went into the basement, tested outlets, looked in the attic and climbed up the second story flat roof all the time pointing out and explaining what he was looking at. He took his time and spent almost two hours going through every room of the house and had a detailed report of his inspection in our hands the next evening. We are now very confident that we have an understanding of the house’s condition as we finalize the purchase. I would definitely use Fred’s services again.

I have had Fred inspect two homes for me now. The first one was in 2010 and it was a 1930s Spanish style home in North Long Beach. Fred went over the place top to bottom, explained everything he saw to me so that I understood what was going on, and gave me a detailed report with what repairs were needed and the priority in which I should handle them. The second house I had him inspect was recently in 2013. This house was in much better condition than the first one, but even so, he spent his time looking over the entire thing, even though there were no faults to report.
Fred takes his time to inspect everything, he explains it all to you so you understand what is going on, and he provides a quick and thorough report for you to reference through the years of home ownership. I hope I never need to buy a home again, but if I do I will not be hesitating to call Fred for the third one.
