Alex provided a detailed and thorough home inspection report for a condo I purchased in a new construction project. He arrived early and reviewed the surroundings of the property. During the walk-through of the unit he explained the heating, cooling, and ventilation systems and recommended maintenance schedules. There were several items he pointed out that needed to be addressed that I might have missed on my own. I'm very confident that the final punch list is complete. Would absolutely recommend!
- C.F., April 2021

Absolutely Alex was extremely knowledgeable and thorough!
- N.B., March 2021

Alex was a thorough teacher and architectural archaeologist in the inspection of a complex building. He went above and beyond (and below). Bravo!
- W.K., March 2021

We hired Alex to inspect our new home and he did a phenomenal job. We needed the inspection done on very short notice and he did it the very next day. His inspection was extremely thorough, detailed, and easy to understand. He provided us with a report that not only listed everything we should take note of, but also explained why each thing mattered, predicted future consequences, and provided solutions for everything. He also met with us on zoom and was very responsible and accommodating in regards to Covid.
- L.S., February 2021

Alex was thorough and professional. Because of COVID I couldn't be at the inspection but we face-timed. I felt very confident with his work and the report was excellent.
- E.B., February 2021

Alex has inspected multiple homes for us and his process is incredibly thorough and informative. Rest assured you will fully understand the condition of the property and be able to make an informed decision about next steps. The detail and insights contained in his report will make it very easy to proceed with confidence, knowing exactly what there is to deal with in terms of repairs or improvements. You’ll also get a verbal run-through of everything, and it’s fun to learn more about how homes are built and how all of the systems work within them. He’s a great guy and will patiently answer any and all questions you have, we can’t recommend Alex highly enough!
- B.T., December 2020

So pleased, happy, content and confident I made the right decision buying my first home on my own. Alex - professional, thorough, extremely helpful with all of my questions . I now have a total evaluation of my new home - I am fully aware of the things that are in good working order and things I need to take care of now or in the future! He was very friendly and open - I felt very comfortable asking my many questions and very confident with my new knowledge of how a home is run! My realtor was very impressed that he is now going to refer Alex to all his clients with total confidence!!
- K.G., December 2020

I highly recommend Alex and JBS Home Inspections. Alex was beyond helpful and thorough not only meticulously inspecting every item in the home but also just explained to us as new home owners these to look for in the future, when to service various items in the home, how things worked if we did not know. He went around also also took pictures of everything to include on the inspection report so that we could see exactly what he was referring to in his report. He provided us a free book on homeownership 101 that lays out ways to care for your house. He was friendly, prompt and I had full confidence he did not miss anything in the home. Highly highly recommend!
- A.P., November 2020

- R.D., November 2019

Alex was excellent. He has a great attention to detail, as well as the ability to explain stuff to a home "newbie." I received my report promptly and it was filled with tons of helpful details. I walked away with a clear understanding of the property. Highly recommend Alex. Will definitely use Alex again.
- M.L., October 2019

Alex inspected the house I was considering buying. Within 14 hours, he submitted to me an online report outlining the items that needed attention. The to-do list was extensive and ranked according to urgency. It was just what I needed. I personally learned a lot from the inspection. Based on Alex?s recommendations, I cancelled my purchase of the two family home. He and his partner Stuart are thorough, meticulous, and professional. I recommend this company highly. In fact, I am hiring them again this next week!
- E.S., September 2019

Alex was a total pleasure to work with!

Alex is professional and very thorough. He is very knowledgeable and does his job very but very well. I would strongly suggest him... We couldn't have been more satisfied with his work.
- U.O., May 2019

Alex is an amazing home inspector. We had just bought an older Victorian and so we needed someone who knew their craft. Not only was he incredibly detailed, but he also approached the job with passion. You can tell that he loves to help people, which is so important. After the inspection he continued to provide expert advice above and beyond. I can?t recommend him enough!
- T.M., April 2019

Alex is an excellent inspector, he is very professional and detailed. He not only did a phenomenal job, but he took the time to explain everything and give me great recommendations. I was lucky to have had to inspect my future home. I highly recommend him.

Perfect. Alex is simply amazing (and I am a very high maintenance and tough customer)...
- S.D., March 2012

Best home inspector/inspection I have ever had (4 prior RE purchases). He was extremely well prepared and well read. Worked through the property in a logical and exacting manner. I learned a great deal about the property and future maintenance issues, both near and long term.
- M.S., May 2011

Alex: You did an amazing job!! Although I am totally new to the world of home inspections, I can't imagine anyone being any more thorough with both the inspection itself and the writing of the report. Thank you so much for your astute attention to detail; you have helped me greatly! I also appreciate the manner in which you communicated your findings. The descriptions you provided were easily understood. I would gladly serve as a reference to others of the service you provide. You come highly recommended in my book!! Thanks, again. -Ann

Alex deos an excellent, thorough job and has a very patient, comfortable demeanor. He is interested in explaining systems to home buyers for their personal knowledge and use beyond the home purchase, i.e. doing more than simply helping the transaction.

She was terrific. Thorough and professional.
- A.G., Cambridge MA, January 2011

- U.D., October 2010

Traci was excellent. Very thorough and professional. I'd highly recommend to anyone considering.
- D.F., Boston MA, October 2010

Tracu Litt was highly professional, and extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of our potential home. Working with Tracy was a pleasure since she took time to explain every area that she examined. Moreover, her photographs allowed me to see each flaw that Tracy found.The thoroughness of the inspection was far better than any other housing inspection that I have observed. I would recommend Tracy Litt and her organization without reservation and with the highest praise.
- P.G., September 2010

This was a very thorough report. I'm very impressed. I've seen similar reports in the past, and the use of photos, and the clear structure of the report, was very helpful.

Tracey Litt was our inspector: very thorough, very knowledgable.

Thorough inspection coupled with tremendous patience and ability to communicate the issues clearly to a layperson. Totally satisfied with Alex's work.
- W.C., September 2010

It was a joy to work with you! Thank you so much for all of your help.
- C.W., September 2010

Exceeded my greatest expectations. Tracey was personable, thorough, and extremely skilled at explaining technical issues in a way that I could understand them. We had the inspection done to find out what our house needs prior to listing, but we learned that there are a number of safety issues that need to be addressed ASAP. We were also relieved to learn that our house is in better shape than we thought. The 41 page report included everything Tracey talked about on the walk-thru, as she said it would, so I didn't have to take a single note. The many photos enhance the report enormously. I can't say enough good things about this service!
- B.M., Wayland MA, August 2010

Tracey did a great job - thanks for being so thorough and for explaining everything to us so clearly!
- E.H., August 2010

Tracee Litt was fabulous--thorough, personable, and professional. She explained everything as she went, and put each potential problem or repair in context. We were in great hands! I will recommend her and would use her again.
- A.G., July 2010

Excellent, Tracey is great!
- H.F., July 2010

Tracey was excellent. I have to admit that I wasn't looking forward to the home inpection but she has a great personality and explained everything in terms that I could understand. It doesn't hurt that she seems to enjoy her job. I would absolutely use her again and I've raved about her at work and to my family. Keep up the good work!
- A.T., June 2010

Thanks so much, Tracey - your availablility, equipment, knowledge, and pace were all excellent. It was very refreshing to get a competent and unbiased oppinion about this purchase.
- G.S., June 2010

Alex Steinberg's partner, Tracey Litt, did a very thorough and efficient inspection of a condo I had offered to purchase and educated me about the property all along the way. She has a background in photography and her pictures accompanying the problems she wrote into the report clearly demonstrate the issues. I would recommend this company without any hesitation.
- L.W., June 2010

We could not ask for a better Home Inspection!
- R.P., June 2010

Tracey was outstanding - very professional, knowledgeable and thorough.

Tracey is extremely thorough and very easy to work with.

Alex was very thorough and very patient in explaining the systems, issues and solutions to us. We are first time home buyers, and would recommend him to any who needed a home inspection.
- K.P., March 2010

The report is thorough and easy to follow, and the pictures are a great and necessary addition (It's shocking this isn't a more standard practice). The inspection itself was educational, and you made it easy to understand problems and areas of improvement without making us worried. Worth every penny, and we will recommend you to anyone we know who is in the market for a new home.
- J.M., March 2010

Tracy did this inspection and she was absolutely fantastic. I was a nervous wreck and she was incredibly patient in answering all of my anxious questions. Her knowledge and thoroughness put me at ease. I chose JBS because of the excellent ratings on Angie's List and you definitely earned all of those high marks. I can't thank you enough for being so thorough and focused and detailed in the report.
- M.M., Charlestown MA, February 2010

Alex, Your report was thorough and made things clear and understandable. I appreciate your quality of work and service. The level of professionalism and attention to detail was remarkable. Thank You. Monika
- M.B., February 2010

As first time homebuyers, we highly recommend Alex Steinberg and Tracy Litt without reservation! Having the opportunity to tag along with Alex and Tracy during the home inspection was a rewarding education, not only for the information as it pertained to the home, but the historic relevance as applied to the architecture, process, and materials. Their personable approach/disposition and sense of humor made complicated (to us) information accessible and understandable. The recommendations and report were thorough, well qualified, and offered great insight to the long-term trajectory of the home. Our affection for antique homes has provided great challenges and the inspection is a critical component to insure not only our peace of mind, but our investment (psychological as well as monetary) when pursuing a property. We happily placed our trust in Alex and Tracy because of their knowledge and integrity. Thank you, Thomas, Emily and Gabriel Gustainis.
- T.G., January 2010

Alex was very systematic and thorough. I really appreciated that he was willing to go anywhere and crawl everywhere to make a complete inspection.
