Hawkeye is above and beyond at what they do, there is absolutely no comparison. I have had TWO home inspections with Hawkeye, both times my inspector was Mr. Michael Howe. These two houses were very, very different and yet each home inspection was personalized to the house, provided with a level of detail and thoroughness beyond what I could even ask for, and done with such an overall pleasant and reassuring attitude! Mr. Howe is professional, kind, and easy to work with and has an overwhelming amount of intelligence and skill at what he does. The company in general is fantastic to work with--- when my first home fell through, they gave me a discount on the second inspection for my new house, and they gave me every discount that they could find -- WITHOUT me asking for it. They are truly a blessing to know about and I would never go to another company. They have actually been the only breath of fresh air in the entire process of home buying this far (which can be very frustrating)! Most importantly they are HONEST. My inspector told me things that could save me money in both the short and long term, and made it clear that if I had any questions after the fact (or even down the road in the future) that he was available to assist. It is very rare to find a company that stands by such great values and service so they really deserve this long review. You can trust that Hawkeye will take care of you during this process and rest assured that your home inspection is in great hands. I sincerely hope that these inspectors, especially Mr. Howe, are recognized for the fabulous job that they do! (Even my realtor said that it was one of the best inspections she had ever seen and asked for his card! I asked her if all companies for home inspection were this thorough and professional and she said no!!) Thank you to everyone at Hawkeye for all your help-- you made me feel so at peace about moving to my new home! read more

When I booked my appointment with Hawkeye Home Inspections, the office staff put me at ease and was extremely helpful. I am thinking about downsizing and needed a pre-inspection where I would learn the condition of my home before putting it on the market. My inspector, Peter Ottowitz, was so informative pointing out details I had never even noticed as we went through my home. When he took the door off my electric panel to examine the wiring, he discovered it was missing three screws and he happily replaced them with spare parts he carries in his bag. Peter possesses just the right combination of friendliness and professionalism I needed and his expertise helped me make some necessary decisions. Within 24 hours Peter e-mailed my report to me which was very informative and will help me move forward with preparing my house to put it on the market. I highly recommend Hawkeye Home Inspections and will contact them again to inspect the house I purchase in the future. Thank you Peter and everyone at Hawkeye. read more

Nick provided an exceptional inspection. I left feeling like I had a really good sense of the problem areas in the home and places that needed attention. He was very informative, polite, and thorough. The house was not easy to inspect due to the tenants overwhelming amount of clutter. But Nick was patient and did what he could. And despite the clutter was very thorough. Susana was so kind and reassuring when she returned my initial phone call. I felt comfortable right off the bat, and I am so happy I chose Hawkeye in the end (just like she promised I would be). I am really impressed with the follow up from Peter as well. He called just to make sure I was satisfied and to see if I had any questions. When does the company's owner ever call a client just to see how everything went? That is a true testament to the businesses high level of customer service. Overall I am extremely happy with doing business with Hawkeye, and will certainly recommend your company to anyone I know looking for a home inspector. read more

My real estate broker recommended Hawkeye after we used Tiger and the deal fell through. The Tiger guy had blown through the entire inspection in an hour, and it felt rushed. We used Hawkeye for the next property we put an offer on and I was extremely satisfied. Nick Palmer was absolutely amazing. From the moment I got there to second I left, I felt like I was in good hands. He took the the time to explain is detail all of the little things that needed attention. At no point did I feel rushed, and this was on Sunday during a Pats game!!!! If you are in Mass and need an inspection, I highly recommend them. He pointed out a possible issue with the heating system, and two days after the inspection, he took it upon his self to call the oil company and inquire about the service history!! They are top notch, and take detailed photos, so that when you go back and read the inspection, you have photos to go with it. The next house I purchase, i'll absolutely use Hawkeye, and I'll ask for Nick Palmer read more

We highly recommend Hawkeye Home Inspections and Mr. Daniel Fox. Dan was incredibly patient and knowledgeable and provided us with amazing customer service. We got our report the same day, and it was balanced, incredibly thorough and was a trustworthy report we will reference again and again if we are ultimately the owners of our new home. We learned so much during the inspection, not only about the condition of the home we were considering, but also a number of things to consider as home owners, or be aware of for the future with regards to safety, efficiency, cost, and structural integrity of the home. This was so worth the money - I would never hesitate to get a Hawkeye inspection for any property we're considering prior to purchase. We didn't even have to take notes - the report had absolutely everything we discussed and that was noted during the inspection, along with pictures. So great!! read more

Having never purchased a home before, I was very nervous going into the home inspection, but after meeting Peter within just one minute I knew there was no reason to be nervous. Not only did he immediately come across as someone with a wealth of knowledge and experience, but he also showed great warmth, kindness and a wonderful sense of humor, all of which put me at ease right away. Peter walked us through every piece of the inspection and gave us clear and thorough explanations about everything he was doing and what he observed as he was doing it. His colleague, Justin, was also incredibly kind and helpful. I could not be happier with the service that Peter provided for us and more importantly how he made us feel about the whole experience. My only complaint is that we only get to work with him once in this whole process! :) I would recommend Peter to anyone buying a home! read more

I used Hawkeye for a home inspection last month. Antony Mazzola was the assigned inspector . As first time home buyers we were novices on the different aspects of an inspection . Antony did an outstanding job by explaining in detail every point on the inspection checklist . He did this during the inspection process, so we got to learn a lot about the home and its maintenance. It gave us confidence on the deal we were getting into. He was very patient in answering all our questions sometimes even going into technical details. As a bonus, he brought in snacks,water and soda which was a pleasant surprise.They turned in the report in 2 days and overall we were extremely satisfied with the experience. Hawkeye takes efforts to keep you posted on home tips which i find useful as a first time home buyer. I would definitely recommend Hawkeye if you have a Home Inspection need. read more

I would not hesitate to recommend Hawkeye for your home inspection. As first time home-buyers we really appreciated Hawkeye's thoroughness and friendliness during the process. After not receiving answers from two other organizations, Hawkeye's office representative answered promptly and helped us schedule for the next day. Our inspector Mike was extremely polite, sufficiently thorough, and offered good detail in his report. In addition Hawkeye provides buyers with a binder including annual maintenance items, best practices to keep your home in solid shape, and other general knowledge. Again, as first time home-owners this was very much appreciated. In the following days our inspector was prompt in returning a follow-up call we had to the report. read more

This is the second time that Peter Ottowitz performed home inspection for me and I am 100% satisfied with his excellent performance. In both cases it was done very professionally and while he was inspecting, giving me detailed explanations about the inspected items. His recommendations about how to maintain the home are valuable and helped me save considerable money, for example insulating heating steam pipes in the basement. His inspection report is very comprehensive. I used it to ask the seller to fix the repairs before closing or get credit instead of fixing some inspection items. The report is also the best guide for maintaining the home. I highly recommend Peter and his company Hawkeye to my friends. Javad Memarzadeh read more

I had a home inspected recently by Patrick of Hawkeye and he was incredible. Thorough doesn't even begin to describe the level of his work and attention to detail. I am new in this real estate world and having someone like Patrick in my corner made me feel much less anxious about this whole process. My realtor, along with family friends that were there to advise me as they have bought/sold many houses were also incredibly impressed with Patrick and his work. My realtor even said "I wish I had him inspect all my properties" after he left. From start to finish, Hawkeye was incredible and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a house inspection! read more

Outstanding service. I scheduled my inspection online and they called me to go over my selections to make sure I was getting what I needed - the cost actually went down! The office staff was great on the phone. During the inspection, Danny was very friendly, thorough, offered sound insights, and really seemed to care. Peter was there too. Very funny, caring and professional. He looked into a particular concern for us and helped us feel comfortable in making the right choice. I've had 3 home inspections in the past and found them mostly worthless. In fact, I was thinking of skipping it if not for a couple of specific concerns. Hawkeye is very solid! read more

We selected Hawkeye for a home inspection based on a recommendation from a relative, as we are purchasing an older home and Hawkeye came recommended for older homes. Daniel Fox was our inspector: he was thorough, patient, and as first-time buyers we appreciated his ability to break things down and easily explain everything. We could tell he was extremely knowledgeable and thorough and described everything in as much detail as needed while giving really good context about each issue. We walked away feeling confident and extremely happy that we had Daniel with us during this critical juncture of the homebuying process. read more

Mark did an amazing job! We were recommended to Hawkeye by our realtor for our new home. Mark came early (when has a vendor come EARLY?) to inspect the outside of the property and his passion for his work clearly showed through. He patiently answered all of our questions, and went above / beyond to: - Test every single appliance - Test running the heating across all 4 floors - Tested every single faucet and plug / light switch - Even make sure every air filter was included (the seller missed 1!) Mark even gave us a helpful guide to home inspections / house upkeep! read more

I've worked with three inspectors over the years and every single one has been on point. Anthony (2015) and Patrick and Mike (2018) were all wonderful. Patient with questions, thorough, and honest. Even their customer service is STELLAR. We needed a quick turnaround and one woman (I regret I can't remember her name) was staying late in the office to make sure we got taken care of. When their lines are busy you somehow get forwarded to a magical backup customer service rep who sends all your info over to the office. Truly a great business I will always come back to. read more

The staff at Hawkeye are great to work with, from the office staff to the home inspector Michael Howe, all were professional, knowledgeable and always put the customer first. We got the full inspection at the premises with explanations, a wrap up summary at the end of the inspection, and a 70 page inspection report emailed to us the next day. Hawkeye also provides the customer with a 3 ring binder which includes information on maintenance and systems in homes, very helpful information. I would definitely use Hawkeye again and highly recommend them. read more

Our Realtor had recommended Hawk Eye Inspections for our first home purchase we needed to schedule within 2 days. Their online platform for booking made everything so easy with the tight turnaround we needed. Kurt was absolutely amazing to work with throughout our inspection. As first-time homeowners, we had no idea about anything he was saying but he was so patient and explained everything so clearly for us. I was by his side asking a million questions and he answered them all with great suggestions to solutions to any problems that he found. read more

The Hawkeye team was extremely responsive and professional. Booking an inspection with them at a time that was convenient for me was extremely easy. Our inspector Justin Lupien went above and beyond in every way possible and gave us an extremely detailed inspection on site then emailed us an extensive report within 24 hours. When I called to ask a follow up question, Justin was very informative and welcomed me to reach out again. I will always use Hawkeye Inspectors from now on and I will always request Justin because he was truly exceptional. read more

Peter with Hawkeye Home Inspections did a great job for us inspecting a home we're buying. He was exceedingly thorough and identified a number of issues which we definitely would have missed on our own. There weren't any major issues with the house, but his attention to detail gave us high confidence in our purchase. Great report, too! After talking to a number of friends and colleagues who seemed at best indifferent about recommending their inspector, I feel like we really got a great one. Highly recommended. read more

From the customer service phone call with Debra to the inspection with John Moulton, I had a great experience with Hawkeye! Debra was super nice on the phone while helping me make the appointment and even nicer when I called back with all my first-time homebuyer inspection questions. She was kind, patient and very helpful. John was also super nice and thorough in his inspection. He even brought us snacks! He arrived early and made sure to check everything off the list. I would definitely recommend using Hawkeye. read more
