A first-time buyer writing in May 2026 described Jason Sobol walking through the house step by step, explaining what he saw and finishing the inspection report that evening. Other recent customers describe the same attention to explanations: a May reviewer said the inspector carefully discussed interior and exterior findings, current issues and things that might need attention later. A June reviewer who had hired Jason for a winter inspection praised the maintenance guidance and quick delivery of a detailed report. Pheasant Hill Home Inspections is based in Framingham. The company says Jason is its owner and sole inspector, offering pre-purchase and pre-listing inspections along with radon testing and drone imagery. Its website names communities including Framingham, Newton, Natick, Somerville, Worcester and Shrewsbury as service areas. Jason A. Sobol's Massachusetts home inspector license is active. The company states that he is an ASHI Certified Inspector and FAA Certified Drone Pilot. Google lists 4.9 stars from 70 ratings, and its BBB page carries an A+ grade. Customers writing across several years describe detailed reports they could keep using after the purchase. In November 2023, a buyer of a fixer-upper said Jason explained the home's systems, including key furnace functions, and documented what needed attention first. A February 2023 customer described inspections of two properties, explanations for buyers unfamiliar with US homes and continued availability over email and messages after the inspection. Some older accounts give specific examples of how buyers used the findings. In June 2019, a Shrewsbury buyer said the inspection identified issues they had missed and helped them negotiate an additional $9,000 in consideration from the seller. The reviewer explained that Jason did not estimate the repair work; they used his report to build their own estimate spreadsheet. A March 2019 customer described more than five hours spent inspecting an 1892 house they ultimately chose not to buy, followed by an inspection of a different home. There is also a serious older complaint. A March 2017 Porch reviewer alleged that the inspector missed extensive knob-and-tube wiring and visible structural cracks. That allegation concerns the inspection itself and remains part of the company's customer history alongside the later accounts praising detailed explanations and reports.

Prompt response and professional service! Great experience. Thorough and patient approach made the difference. Highly recommend
Jason was amazing to work with! My fiancé and I hired Jason to do an inspection for our first home this winter. From the start, Jason was easy to communicate and coordinate with. He was prompt to arrive to our appointment, and we really appreciated how much time he took explaining not only what he was seeing for the inspection but also general tips for homeowners and maintenance. We were so impressed with how quickly we received our detailed report as well. We would definitely recommend working with Jason, especially as nervous first-time home buyers.
We had a great experience with our home inspection process. The inspector was very professional, knowledgeable, and extremely thorough throughout the entire inspection. He carefully explained both the exterior and interior findings, including current issues as well as potential future concerns that may require attention over time. What we appreciated most was how patient and detailed he was in answering all of our questions and making sure we fully understood everything. The inspection felt very honest, informative, and helpful, especially for us as buyers. Highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy home inspector!
I have nothing but great things to say about Jason. From the very beginning, he was accommodating and was able to schedule an inspection on short notice. On the day of the inspection, he walked me though the house step-by-step, explaining everything with patience, detail, and expert insight. As a first-time homebuyer, this was an invaluable experience that made the process feel much less intimidating. To top it off, he finished the report that same evening. This guy is a real gem!
Jason Sobol was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, he was punctual, responsive, and incredibly easy to schedule with. During the inspection, he was extremely thorough and took the time to carefully examine every part of the house. What really stood out was how patient and detailed he was in explaining everything to us, making sure we understood both the good and the areas that needed attention. He made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. On top of that, he delivered the final report very quickly, and it was clear, detailed, and very helpful. We truly appreciate his professionalism and highly recommend Jason Sobol to anyone needing a reliable and knowledgeable home inspector!
