Metro Boston Property Inspections

Metro Boston Property Inspections is a home inspection company that describes itself as serving Eastern MA and Northern RI, offering residential and commercial building inspections, 21E environmental site assessments, radon testing and mold screening for buyers, sellers and agents. One recent customer, working to a three-week expedited closing, said the inspection was scheduled for the day after the accepted offer and that Ryan Orlando explained every step. Its Massachusetts home inspector license, number 258-HI-1, is active on the state registry, with Tod E Whiting as the holder of record. On Google the company holds 5 stars from 480 ratings, and its BBB grade is A+. A recent customer buying a home said the report was delivered the very same day, in an easy-to-understand format. Rob M. sent a different recent customer the report the same evening, and when that customer reached out with questions a few days later, Rob got back to them the same day. A recent reviewer said Tod let them follow him around and ask questions during the inspection, then walked the property with them and helped name the plantings around the house. In a recent review written about a buyer client, the reviewer said the inspection ran two hours or more and that the buyer was advised to seek specialists to repair some items on the report. A 2026 customer who could not be there in person said Ryan went over his findings by phone immediately after the inspection and that the detailed report came within 24 hours. In a 2025 review, a customer said Rob explained which items were up to code, which were grandfathered in and which might need updating. A 2022 reviewer said Mark took them on a tour to point out everything he was talking about. A 2021 Reddit commenter in r/boston reported a good experience with a home inspection from the company. A 2025 customer left two stars, saying the people were kind but the inspection was poor. That 2025 customer said sliding doors that could not slide were put down to wheels needing adjustment rather than a sagging floor and a frame no longer flat.
