The Home Inspection Company

Ed Morkis has been doing home inspections around Framingham long enough that former clients now send him their real estate clients too — several reviewers describe hiring him personally for one purchase, then referring him to buyers they represent. He runs The Home Inspection Company solo, holds an active Massachusetts home inspector license, and is also a construction supervisor and an InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector. He covers buyer's, seller's, and maintenance inspections plus radon, mold, and well/water testing across a long list of MetroWest and Greater Boston towns. The specifics in his reviews, going back to 2021, describe the same thing regardless of the year: three-hour walkthroughs, a report back within hours, and technical findings explained in plain language. A 2026 review described one house Ed inspected as a "mouse infested, tinderbox, death trap" that the buyers walked away from because of his report, and credited a second inspection from him with helping them find the home they actually bought. A 2023 review said his findings helped the buyer negotiate over $10,000 off for insulation issues found during the inspection. One reviewer who does contracting work himself said he was surprised by how much Ed caught that he'd missed on his own walkthrough of a house he was buying (2022). Just one review among the 28 on file isn't a full five stars — a 2021 customer rated him four stars while writing that they'd used him twice, hadn't been disappointed, and planned to call him again. There's no actual complaint in it, just a rating a notch below the rest. For a home purchase or sale inspection anywhere in Ed's MetroWest and Greater Boston service area, this is a well-corroborated, single-inspector operation with a long, consistent history; schedule early if your timeline is tight, since several reviewers mention booking him on short notice through their agents.
