Dan Keefe runs Navigator Home Inspections out of Yarmouth Port, doing pre-purchase and new-construction inspections across Cape Cod. The number that stands out is the streak: 103 reviews since 2021, every one of them five stars, and the same specific praise keeps repeating across dozens of them — buyers say he walks the house with them, explaining what he's looking at as he finds it rather than handing over a report and leaving. Recent reviews describe real time on site: a June 2026 review recounts a three-hour new-construction inspection where he flagged things the buyer said they "would have never known about", and another describes him finding an unterminated electrical wire the reviewer called a fire hazard. Reports typically land fast — several reviewers mention getting a detailed write-up the next morning, and one from mid-2025 describes a 40-page report delivered within 24 hours. He also handles the buyers who can't be there in person: in a 2025 review, a family working with him long-distance for elderly parents relocating to the Cape said he articulated his findings clearly and stayed available for follow-up questions afterward. His Massachusetts home inspector license is registry-verified active. There's genuinely nothing to flag before booking — the written record spans five years and three review sources without a single negative account, and multiple buyers mention coming back to him for a second inspection on a later property. He's a solid call for a Cape Cod pre-purchase inspection, especially for a first-time or out-of-town buyer who wants someone willing to explain things room by room rather than just checking boxes.
Dan was prompt, thorough and polite :)
Dan did my new construction home inspection in Cape Cod in June 2026 and spent 3 hours at the home checking every aspect of the home, identifying things we would have never known about and completed an extensive, detailed report with guidance on use of certain elements and systems of the home since I wasn't there (water shut off, HVAC use, water heater, etc.) I would recommend Navigator Home Inspections to anyone in the Cape Cod area looking for a detailed and complete home inspection!
Dan made the scheduling process easy and convenient. After the inspection, he provided a thorough, professional home inspection report and was readily available to answer any questions regarding his findings.
Dan responded promptly to my request for a pre-purchase inspection and was able to arrange it within a few days. He arrived on time, thoroughly inspected the home, and verbally reviewed the highlights of his findings before he left. He emailed a thorough written report early the next day. Highly recommend.
Dan is incredibly knowledgeable and provided invaluable guidance during our home walkthrough. He is punctual, friendly, and brings a great sense of humor to the process. What we appreciated most was his willingness to explain exactly why things were or were not up to standard, while offering practical home maintenance tips along the way. We highly recommend his services!
