Brian Schaefer was amazing to work with! He very personable and patient with me as a new home buyer. He was thorough and took the time to speak with me about what he found after the inspection and allowed me to ask any question I wanted.

It doesn't appear that Brian/SCHI has a single review less than 5 stars, and after hiring Brian to inspect a home I was looking to purchase, I can see why. My agent told me to use Brian because he was the best inspector in Tennessee, and I think she's right. The highlights:

(1) Brian came out on short notice around the Christmas holiday.
(2) I joined Brian at the property after he finished his inspection, and he gave a very helpful verbal report and walkthrough to show his findings.
(3) Brian's inspection was incredibly thorough and provided a ton of helpful insight into the property. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and an effective communicator.
(4) Brian's turn around time on the written report was unhuman. I got a thorough, detailed, specific written report the same day of his inspection. I have no idea how he was able to get it to me so quickly.
(5) Brian was very responsive to additional questions in the several weeks following his inspection.

I will never use any home inspector in Tennessee other than Brian/SCHI.

Brian came at exactly the appointed time. Before starting, he sat down and asked us about our questions and concerns regarding the house and the inspection. He was knowledgeable, polite, and professional.

From the time he started and for the next four hours, Brian inspected everything from the chimney, roof, and attic to the crawlspace and everything in between. After the inspection, he provided a short debriefing and asked again if we had any questions...great communication!

As promised, we then received a detailed 66-page report, complete with pictures, prioritized problems, recommendations, and descriptions. It was an incredibly thorough and helpful document. The pictures were invaluable.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

If I could give 10 stars , I would. Brian is the best home inspector I have ever used. Very thorough and informative. He gave is more than we paid for. Unbelievable value!!!
The report was the best I have ever seen. Easy to read and understand. Great photos.
If you are buying an existing home or building a new one, I recommend Brian and Southern Comfort.
And for you real estate agents, this is the guy you want doing the inspection for your buyers.
AWESOME home inspector!!!!!!

We've used Brian on all our home purchases in the Nashville area. He's extremely attentive, takes pride in his work, and very responsive. I feel like he cares as much as I do about my home! As long as we live here we will use Brian for our home inspections and warranty walks!

Brian is amazing to work with!! After meeting with him, it was obvious that he is VERY good at what he does and really knows how to effectively communicate everything to you. He was EXCEPTIONALLY THOROUGH with the inspection report and spent the time to talk through the report with us and made sure we left with a fully understanding! This is our first home purchase so we needed someone with the experience and professionalism, and that came with Southern Comfort! I will be using them for my next home purchase without a doubt!!

Brian and Southern Comfort came highly recommended to us by our buyer's agent, and we couldn't be more grateful to have such a wonderful team on our side as we navigate the process of buying a house for the first time. Brian is kind, thorough, and truly made sure we fully understood everything he went over with us — which was quite a bit considering we were buying a historic home! Not only did he provide us with a detailed in-person overview and a thorough write-up of every element of the house, but he also made himself available for all of our questions throughout the entire process. If you need an inspection done well, I highly recommend going with Southern Comfort!
