AiM Mobile Inspections Customer Testimonial

Let me first say I'm amazed at how quickly the inspection took place, and truly amazed at how thorough the inspector was. He really documented a lot of paint damage...Again, excellent work! We have a second inspection scheduled with you in a different state, and I'm a huge fam of AiM! Bill (8-24-2010)

The report I got back was so very accurate. I just want to thank the person involved who did the inspection. The car turned out to be a very bad car for us. You saved us lots of money and heartache. I cannot thank you enough for your outstanding service and experience. Your price was worth every penny!!! I work for General Motors and I will tell everyone I know that's going to buy a used car that they need to call you. Money well spent!!! Clifford, Michigan

I just wanted to say Denise did a great job on my inspection. Because of her inspection, I was able to save $1,100. She found a couple of areas on the car where the paint job was subsatisfactory and the dealership agreed to correct the flaws prior to shipping me the vehicle. This inspection has given me such piece of mind and confidence that I made a great purchase. Terry, North Carolina (07-6-2010)

I will absolutely use you again in any future transaction. I really felt the inspector hit all the right points in checking the car out and the photos with the arrows great, I really didn't expect that. I got what I really needed being 1,500 miles away from the car and that was unbiased view of what the car really was in terms of it's cosmetic and mechanical shape. Dean L. New York (05-2010)
