Metro Boston Property Inspections

Metro Boston Property Inspections is a Sharon-based team operation, not a solo inspector — familiar names show up across hundreds of reviews: Tod Whiting, Ryan Orlando, Rob Madzar, Mark, and office staff Missy and Jeanna. Google alone carries 480 ratings at a near-perfect average, and the written record — 220 reviews since 2021 across five platforms, plus a BBB A+ grade — backs it up with real detail rather than just stars. Realtors show up again and again as reviewers, which is its own signal: multiple agents describe Metro Boston as their go-to or first choice for buyer inspections, citing clear reports their clients can actually use. Buyer-side reviews describe the same pattern from the other side — inspectors who walk the property with the client rather than working alone, explaining what's code-required versus grandfathered, and flagging what needs immediate attention versus what can wait. Turnaround is consistently fast, with several reviewers mentioning a full written report the same evening or within 24 hours. The company also handles short-notice and rush inspections — one buyer with a 3-week closing got scheduled the day after their offer was accepted. Recent activity is heavy and clean: 32 reviews in the last six months, none negative. The one real exception in the written record is a 2025 review, rated 2 stars, describing a poor second inspection — of two done by different inspectors — that misattributed real problems: a power cord run near a heater, and sliding doors not sliding, chalked up to the wrong causes (a wheel needing adjustment rather than a sagging floor). It's a specific, credible complaint about inspection quality on one particular visit, and stands apart from the otherwise consistent praise for exactly that kind of diagnostic care. Good fit for a buyer or agent who wants a walk-along inspection with real-time explanation and a fast report, especially under a tight closing timeline. Given the one exception on file, it's reasonable to ask which inspector will be assigned and to be present for the walkthrough if the schedule allows.
