Kenny and Domicile Consulting were absolutely fantastic! We had them do our home inspection, and Kenny was amazing. He truly takes pride in his work, and gave us the most thorough and well researched report we've ever seen. We will certainly use this company again, and would recommend them to anyone. read more

Christi and Domicile Consulting are the best. I called for a very last minute appointment and they managed to get me in. Scheduling online and pricing out their services was extremely easy because of the booking system they use and their price transparency. As for the actual inspection, Christi did an amazing job, she answered all of my questions, even ones that were not strictly within the scope of the inspection report. She gave me a lot of great tips and insight about my future home, and a lot of basic safety things I had no idea about. My attorney and my realtor both commented that her inspection report is one of the most detailed and straightforward ones to understand they've ever seen. She has also been incredibly patient about answering my follow-up questions (usually within a few hours of asking). Lastly, she really went above and beyond for me. My inspection was on a Thursday afternoon and completed in about two and a half hours for a one bedroom. I mentioned to her that we needed to send a letter to the seller on Friday and despite having multiple bookings on Friday, Christi stayed up late till about 10PM to get me my report by Friday. Amazing. I don't think there is any other service provider out there that would stay up till 10PM to finish a job, and not even charge extra for it! Cannot recommend Domicile Consulting enough. read more

We are first time homebuyers and we were very pleased with Domicile Consulting. Online scheduling was easy and the email communications were clear. Scott was our Inspector and he was very thorough in his report. There were a lot of details he found that we did not even notice. He also gave us great advice as to how maintain certain things in our home. We would absolutely recommend them! read more

Our Homeowners Association was in need of a second opinion on an assessment we were given for a source of water intrusion and suggested remediation in our 4-unit condominium building. Our attorney recommended we reach out to Domicile Consulting. The owner, Mark Hughes, reached out in advance of the scheduled inspection and offered to review the initial report we had received from a different firm. Mark arrived promptly on time and immediately dove right in. Mark was extremely knowledgeable and professional, but made sure to take the time to explain areas of concern in simple, straightforward terms so that we could understand the assessment and issues that he discovered. He was very detail oriented and managed to identify a variety of issues that previous contractors/consultants had missed. He was able to turn around a thorough and comprehensive report in less than 24 hours and even volunteered to reduce the price of the inspection as less work was needed than originally anticipated. Our HOA was very pleased with the final report and would definitely recommend Mark Hughes and Domicile Consulting. read more

Foremost: Its always best to go with qualified home inspectors in the LOCAL area you're BUYING in. For example: If you are buying in Old Town...get an inspector in Old Town not one from Mt Greenwood. They specialize in the housing types and know what trends are: they understand local norms and conditions and tend not to list opinion and outright speculation. They know what to look for. Just because one advertises they were on HGTV doesn't mean they are the best out there. Not to mention most home inspections in Chicago should average between 250-450 dollars. A hyped-up brief HGTV appearance doesn't command more money. My advice is to check with your agent and get inspection referrals from them. They are held to civil, legal, and ethical standards (home inspectors are protected from this scrutiny and invoke those protections in clauses on their reports which emphasize their findings are opinion). A good Realtor and inspector will help you understand the healthy balance of identifying truly disastrous safety-related issues, from overzealous opinions which may scare you away from the home of your dreams. While you may think you're getting a thorough inspection with this company, you may be getting an inspector that just wants to sound off on standards that are flat out ridiculous and lead you to believe "the cost to get this home perfect are just adding up!" I get the feeling Domicile wants to give you as many "findings" so to justify their costs....like a loud mouthed defense attorney. In reality this practice just gets you more anxious about things typical to home ownership. Keep in mind ALL homes need maintenance and upkeep and none are always perfect all the time. Home ownership means constant upkeep, maintenace, and updating. Know your budget and what you can trule afford going in. Be true to it, dont use a home inspector that wants to have you nickel and dime the seller. Remember YOU will one day be a seller, and will want a fair inspection done on your home that wont give unrealistic pause and anxiety to your prospective buyer: its called karma. Yelp is giving this company good praise because they are "thorough" ... Thats fine...but make sure you're getting fact not opinion and that the inspector is clearly identifying safety issues that need to can be addressed and fixed and not scaring you away because of cosmetic ones. Your lawyer is there to help you mediate safety findings...not your inspector. UPDATE: I've seen your unprofessional responses/attacks to previous valid and civilized concerns or opinions people have posted regarding your services and/or your demeanor...you've once again shown your lack of class, professionalism, and respect by throwing down a juvenille response filled with not-so subtle personal attacks: something that appears to be a trend. I'm not here to get into a Yelp war with you, or to target your organization with unfounded false claims... rather its my intent to relay my thoughts and experiences with your company. If there is any damage to your reputation, it will be due to your response to my posting and not to the posting itself. I hope you realize how your outburst may come across to some folks who will read. You have a business...grow thick skin and take constructive critcism. True professionals have a more calm response and often try to reach out to understand the issue at hand. Im glad others have had good experiences with you, and good for them. I did not. Good day to you and your team at Domicile: I refuse to devote another ounce of energy or effort for you or your company. VIEWERS: I hope you read into this man's response to what I wrote...and to the one star ratings of others...and keep that in mind when you reach out to his company for services. It is my hope his customer service and tone marketly improve when you do talk to him, that he offers you a more adult experience, and extends to you and your family the mutual respect lacking here should you ever have the audacity to disagree with him. UPDATE: Repeated Email harassment sent through yelp to me from Dan: "If you are a client of ours then please call me to discuss your issue. If you are not, then go pound sand." "You are so transparent. Just another disgruntled, craven, property pimp. Better luck on the next deal Brian!" UPDATE: More hate mail from this guy who apparently I struck a nerve with: Keep 'em coming Brian.....it's transparent re-litters like you that help us win over clients. Good luck pushing those dumps on unsuspecting buyers. Love, Dan UPDATE:Unfortunately I had to report Mr. Dan C at Domicile Consulting to Yelp because of his constant harassment to me via private yelp email. Again, ladies and gentlemen, this is NOT a professional: someone who instead of reaches out to solve an issue or take constructive feedback, he instead sends nasty emails on a near weekly basis to me. You should have seen his original initial reply to my first review of his company: filled with profanity read more

We had Isac for our inspection. What else can I say that hasn't already be said? Isac was amiable, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable during the whole process. This was our first home buying experience, and Isac was diligent in his inspection and made sure to go above and beyond. His report was extremely useful, detailing exactly what needed to be fixed and suggestions on how to fix it. Scheduling and adjusting the appointment was a breeze, everyone I spoke with was incredibly friendly, and the whole process was reassuring, which means a lot when dealing with the stress of a first time home purchase. read more

Requested a Water Intrusion inspection via the website on behalf of my HOA - which was very nice as they had a full calendar so didn't have to go back and forth with phone tag at any point. I was able to make an appointment within a few days. Mark Hughes showed up on time and ready to walk through the entire (four-unit) building and did a thorough inspection of the perimeter as well. He was very easy to talk to and explained all issues as he came across them. We have gotten several different opinions on best next steps to resolve water intrusion issues and having the very detailed inspection report Mark produced has been extremely helpful. Also, as part of the inspection, Mark reviewed two existing estimates we had for repair work and gave great advice on how to reach back out to those contractors to further refine the proposals to ensure they were as thorough as possible in detailing out the the work we needed. Would definitely reach out again! read more

A buyer used Domicile to inspect our home. The home itself is over a 100 years old, and like many homes of that age, it has a number of issues. The inspector found these issues as appropriate and in all fairness, some of them needed to be addressed. That said, it was the most biased report I have ever seen. While it listed every minor issues (a slightly loose doorknob and light bulb that was out), it failed to mention one single positive thing. It didn't report at all that the major appliances were in good working order, or that the water heater is less than two years old, and in fact, never even mentions that the house has a 20kw back up generator in perfect working order. In fact, it makes no positive statements what so ever. Worse, it included speculative statements that were in fact wrong. He suggested discoloration on the stove knobs reflected a fire (this was a commercial Wolf range that was well used but perfectly functional). I called to speak to the inspector and he said "my job is to find everything wrong with a property." While I acknowledge that some criticisms were fair and a legitimate part of the report, I suggested that a report should also reflect the good things about the house. He became angry and said buyers don't care about things that work - they only want to know what they have to fix. As a buyer, I have always wanted a balanced report that reflected both good and bad. Another buyer did use a different balanced inspection and bought the home without hesitation. If you use this inspector, don't expect to hear anything but the worse case. My realtor says she will never, ever allow a Domicile inspector in one of her listings again. read more

We chose to work with Domicile because of the rave reviews on Yelp. We were not disappointed. Our appointment was with Andrew, who arrived at the house early and had the outside and roof inspected before my husband and I even arrived. He spent the next two and a half hours inspecting the house in exhaustive detail (the place is only 800 square feet), and answering our many questions with great patience and enthusiasm. Our 60 page report was delivered via email within a few hours after the end of the inspection. Overall this was a very positive experience -- Andrew was knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. He was also extremely accessible, responding promptly to my email queries both before and after the inspection. We would absolutely recommend him to other prospective home buyers. read more

We had a very positive experience with Ross. As first time home buyer, we were a little unsure of what to expect. First, it was very easy to book an appointment with Domicile. Ross went over our property with a fine tooth comb which made us feel very comfortable with the property we were purchasing. He meticulously documented everything with pictures so we have an excellent resource to fall back on. He also told us to contact him with any further questions or concerns. I can't say enough good things about Domicile. Put your mind at ease and use them! read more

I found Dan a few years ago by researching Home Inspection Services on line. I hadn't been looking at reviews, just companies that specialized in this service. This was one of the luckiest breaks with regard to buying property that I've had so far. The first inspection that Dan did for me was for a brand new condo in a building that was only 2 years old. He alerted me to an extremely costly problem with the material used by the builder on the outer walls. As a result of Dan's report, I was able to go back to the builder and got him to tuck point and seal all of the outer walls of the building ( ~ $20,000), saving me a substantial amount for repairs. That's one of the things about Dan, he not only checks the interior of a building, but the exterior as well. This is invaluable to people buying into condo buildings. I am selling this unit now and by contrast, the Inspector that came with my buyer only checked the inside of the unit and pronounced that everything was fine. I asked him if he was planning to inspect the roof, outside of building, etc., but he told me that this was the 'Association's' problem. Well DUH, once you buy a condo unit, it becomes YOUR problem! No wonder so many people buy units in substandard buildings, they don't have Dan doing their home inspection. I just purchased another condo and had Dan back for an inspection. Due to his report, I was able to get a number of things repaired and got a large credit at closing to replace a front door and repair an HVAC problem. Dan was kind enough (even though he is extremely busy) to come back for a pre-closing walk-through. Again, I wouldn't purchase a property without Dan's expertise, I don't trust anyone else to do a thorough inspection. I also love the fact that I could book my appointment and pay on-line, eliminating the back and forth of phone calling. Domicile has a great on line system that stores your reports and allows you to forward them to RE agents and the seller. This is a tremendous convenience. Lastly, Dan is a consummate professional, highly skilled and knowledgeable at what he does, not to mention a great guy. I highly recommend Dan and Domicile Consulting, one of the best companies out there. read more

Can't say enough about the service and quality of work we received while working with Domicile on a new home inspection. Scheduling was easy via phone, and the scheduler/receptionist Deb was a fountain of knowledge about the whole process. Mark H. showed up before us and had already gotten to work inspecting the outside of the home. He was incredibly knowledgeable, worked efficiently, and took the time to explain everything he was seeing to us. The realtor was impressed at how thorough he was. Mark even made time for a separate phone call to walk us through and further explain the meaning and context of all the findings of the inspection listed in the report. Additionally, the company's interface that allows home purchasers to create their list of "requests" directly from the inspection report was awesome! Big time saver and really helped us process through everything. No doubt would recommend to anyone in the market for a home in need of an inspection. read more

I'm happy to hear that someone had a good experience with this company. My experience was not so good. I will agree that Dan was thorough, but I don't think that he knew what he was talking about. He quoted Chicago city building code that was incorrect, and made a huge mess of something very minor. Dan shot from the hip on things that he just didn't understand, as a result everyone waisted their time and lost money. Think twice before you use this guy. There are more knowlegeable inspectors out there. read more

Saved me from buying a mistake of a house. Isac Enriquez was a true professional and did a thorough home inspection.

I couldn't have asked for anything better- Daniel will be my go to person from now onwards. He arrived before time and was extremely detailed in his house inspection report. Thank you Dan! read more

Do not buy a home without consulting Domicile Consulting. We worked with Andrew from Domicile Consulting...twice. Why would first-time homebuyers use a home inspector twice? There are two simple reasons: one, to prevent buying a lemon and, two, to provide a kind of owner's manual for future home improvements. While Domicile is not the cheapest, they are reasonable. Plus, you will get far more than you pay for. Even after you buy the home, you will reference Domicile's inspection report as a "blueprint" for future maintenance and improvements. We highly recommend Andrew at Domicile Consulting - he was responsive even after our business had concluded. Please do not consider buying a home without Andrew's inspection. read more

If you want to hire a home inspector who will use language that scares the crap out of you so you'll feel grateful to him for "saving you" from your obviously terrible decision to purchase a particular property and quickly hire (and pay) him again for your next property inspection (not to mention, recommend him to all of your friends and family), then call Ross. That appears to be his "business" model. read more

Emailed this company wanting to know about their services and rates. Someone named Megan called me the same day. She asked me the number of bedrooms that need inspection on and then quoted me more than $500. I was surprised why charging that much then I asked her why the fee is higher than the market norm which is around $300-$350 she then felt offended and became rude to me. She said "our inspectors are different, our services are different and if you want to get a cheap inspection we are not the company for you!". She failed to elaborate and explain what exactly why their services are so different than others, not in the nice way. She just went on talked down on other companies out there. Her tone was so unprofessional. I will stay away from this company just because of her. read more

Very good customer service that went over and beyond any of my expectations. You will mitigate any surprises down the line once you hire these guys. read more

If you need an inspector to kill your deal, than you can count on Domicile. They are very thorough, which is great. However, even the smallest item, such as a burned out light bulb comes with a recommendation for "qualified contractor" to service. This leave the impression that the house is totally unlivable or even dangerous. Using them, it scared us to death and we killed the deal. After losing that house and looking further, we realized that every home (especially those that are over 10 years old) have quirks. Our loss. At the very least, Domicile should prioritize what absolutely is a problem and what is simply age/preference or "comes with the territory" of an old home. read more

I wanted to update my review after having Domicile do a second home inspection on a second home I wanted to purchase. Let me start out by saying that everything said in my previous review is still 100% true. I requested Bill to do this second home inspection and as before, he was great. Very professional and on time. The problem lies with the Radon test I had performed. While Bill was doing his thing, a car arrived. He didn't identify him self as the person was performing the radon test, he just started asking questions about how the inspection was going. My realtor and I both thought he was an agent of the sellers. It wasn't until he started talking about radon that it dawned on us who he was. He began setting up for the test, put a unit upstairs and went to the basement to set up. Bill had finished his inspection at this point, so I told my realtor I was going to get back to work. A day before the results of my test, I received an email from Kelly (the radon guy) who informed me I would be charged an extra $95 for a second unit that needed to be placed for the test that was required by law. I had no clue about this and it seemed and still seems fishy to me. He also said "you left before I had a chance to tell you this." I have a phone and he could've called me at any time. I don't mind paying the extra $95 but it would've been nice to know this. My realtor talked to him before he left and he said "he knows about the extra charge right?" So maybe they were supposed to tell me prior to the test being done? In any case, I probably would not have the radon test performed by Domicile next time as I was not pleased how the process went and the extra charge I had to pay out of the blue. read more

As a first-time home buyer, I wanted to be sure we knew what we were getting into with the four BR house we had just made an offer on. The individual answering the phones, Megan, was extremely friendly and helpful and lined up our appointment with Robert (Bob) for the next business day. Bob arrived at the house early to do some preliminary inspections of the foundation and exterior and then walked us through the house meticulously over the next 3 hours stopping to answer any and all questions we had for him. He explained everything very patiently and was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of home construction and operation. Bob returned the report around THE SAME DAY, which is helpful for buyers who are on the clock to complete their inspection and submit any items for negotiation. I had a handful of follow-up questions, so I called Bob a couple days later and he provided very helpful explanations. I've heard some real estate agents suggest/complain that inspection companies often overwhelm you with nitty gritty details and can scare buyers with the volume of observed deficiencies. Bob did a good job of providing context for each observation so as to not overwhelm us and provide unwarranted concern. In my mind, if you're paying $600, I want a detailed list of every aspect of the house I may be living in for many years so I know what needs to be addressed over time. I definitely recommend Domicile to anyone needing a professional, qualified, friendly, and patient home inspector. read more

I had a great experience with Domicile Consulting. I was able to get an appointment for my inspection easily and at a time that was convenient for me. I thought I would have to wait longer but I didn't (scheduled an inspection for the same week). My inspector, Phil, arrived early! He was thorough. He had a method, but also prioritized my specific concerns and areas of interest. He demonstrated patience when answering my questions, and was just overall a really nice guy! Based on my experience with Phil, I definitely recommend Domicile Consulting. read more

We worked with Scott for our inspection and were incredibly impressed with his thorough and detailed report. I would highly recommend Domicile to anyone seeking a professional and comprehensive experience. Scott walked us through the process with patience and friendliness. We will certainly seek them out again for future inspections. read more

I used Inspector Dan Cullen at Domicile for 2 home inspections this spring. Dan was very thorough; even the seller's agent as well as my agent commented on his thoroughness. He takes his time and looks at everything. The first place I bid on had many safety issues - the worst being a furnace setup that was out of city code and could have had fatal consequences. There was also issues with a gas leak in the kitchen, which Dan was able to confirm with a hand-held gadget, and water behind the walls in the tub (I never would have seen it) which he also confirmed with a different hand-held gadget. Dad was very candid about the state of the property, and I truly appreciated that. He let me know that I could have been getting myself into a property with lots of big issues. He saw things I could not have, and let me know. You can tell he knows his stuff about what good construction should be because he explains what the roof should look like, how things should be installed, etc. He also calls out safety hazards. After the bad house, Dan inspected my dream home and although it was newer construction, but he still did a detailed walk through of everything from A to Z and gave me tons of maintenance tips. He is frank about what needs to be fixed or replaced and I feel more comfortable as a first time home buyer because of his advice. He takes digital photos of everything and provides a detailed report. The prices are very reasonable. I would use him again and will recommend him to my friends. I found Domicile and Angie's List and there are good reviews there as well. read more

These guys deliver the goods. I found them here on Yelp. Dan C. helped me out coming out on a Saturday afternoon due to some scheduling issues I had. He brought along an assistant as the house was on the bigger side. He and his assistant spent over 3 hours all over that house taking pictures and making notes. I got a **48 page report** with extensive detail showing concerns and recommendations to back to my seller with complete with pictures of the issues and pictures of the equipment needed to make some of the fixes. W-O-W. Also got back exact age of my HVAC and water heaters with expected lifespans. In Domicile's contract, they strongly recommend a radon test. We did it, and found the radon levels in the house were in fact elevated and now we are going back to the seller to have them fix that at their cost. We actually ended up NOT buying the house because of what Domicile found. My wife and I consider ourselves very lucky to have avoided big problems on a house that otherwise looked beautiful on the outside, but had big issues on the inside. read more

We highly recommend Ross Neag of Domicile Consulting for ANY of your home inspection requirements or needs. He advised us against buying a condo which several months later received 50k special assessment per unit. Ross is very professional, knowledgeable, and can explain the process and any potential problems he encounters very well to the lay person. He is always willing to go above and beyond when needed to ensure he captures the full scope of a potential problem. What we also really like about Domicile Consulting the the list of recommenced vendors that in their opinion are solid contractors. We've used Ross for our own home inspection and we were so happy with his services that we also recommended him to our condo association to do a building assessment and reserve study. read more

We hired them to inspect our 1888 short sale condo. Our short sale condo contract only gave us 3 days to have an inspection done, and I knew I wanted to use Domicile because of all their rave reviews. Because of the scary state of our condo (it had been on the market for over 400 days for a reason!) I knew it had to be an inspector I could trust. I called and emailed every team member from Domicile, and all of them called and emailed back, saying they were already booked, but that between them, they would try to find a way to squeeze us in. Two days later, 2 inspectors called saying they found a way. Mike had a cancellation, so he was able to inspect our house for us. Even before the inspection took place, I was so impressed with their amazing Mid-Western kindness and willingness to help. They treated me like a friend that owed me a favor!. The inspection happened, report came the next day (which was a Sunday!), complete with detailed photos and descriptions. I would highly recommend these guys based on human interaction and quality of work. read more

Isac and Domicile were outstanding in their service! Thorough, polite, professional and possessing a high level of expertise Isac took two hours to inspect a townhouse I am looking to purchase, provided photos with every analysis and made his report exceptionally clear with appropriate advice for specific aspects of the home. He even drove over an hour from his home for the inspection. I highly recommend Isac and Domicile Consulting. read more

Ross from Domicile Consulting did an amazing job. He was in the 1100 square foot home we planned to buy for 2.5 hours. He went up onto the roof for quite a while, and really took him time with every aspect of the home. I followed him around during the inspection and he explained all the details to me, made recommendations, and gave advice. He gave cost estimations for work that needed to be done. Likewise, he was personable, professional, and polite. He encouraged us to contact him with any further concerns, and the report was not only timely but extremely complete. A family member familiar with inspection work told us it was the most thorough report he had ever seen. We were so glad that we felt we could trust the inspection company, and will certainly be calling them for any services needed in the future. read more

I contacted Domicile on a Thursday for a Saturday inspection on an old condo. Not only were they prompt, they were also very competitive in pricing. Isac was my inspector and he was thorough, methodical and very personable. I walked through the entire inspection with him (which took 3 hours). He explained almost every issue to me so when I received the report I knew exactly what the context was. I highly recommend Domicile and I also highly recommend Isac. I am very happy with the results of the inspection, although not so happy about the things that need to be fixed in the condo. read more

First of all....DO NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN DOMICILE....they are very reasonably priced and I have shown there report to at least 4 General Contractor's and several Real Estate Brokers, all of them unanimously said this was the most thorough home inspection they have ever seen. Not only were Ross Neag and his team on time, cost effective and exceptional, but was extremely available for follow up questions and insight. I received thousands from my seller due to their hard work and dedication. I actually had them inspect my Green Home is Chicago and they did an exceptional job testing the air quality and energy efficiency of my new home. This is my 3rd home in Chicago and my 3rd inspector, I will NEVER recommended anyone else besides Domicile. Without a doubt far exceeded my expectations. Thanks Guys! Michael read more

Ross was our home inspector and we have nothing but extremely positive things to say about Ross and Domicile. The home inspection report was over 60 pages and went into significant detail about EVERY problem (from the very small to the very big) in the house that we were looking to buy. The inspection report contained pictures, so we were able to see exactly what and where the problem is, which I found extremely helpful. Not only did the inspection report describe the problems, but it also listed potential solutions with explanations. Ross then spent over an hour with us explaining the problems and the potential solutions. As first time home buyers, we had A LOT of questions, which Ross patiently answered. As part of sales contract, the sellers agreed to fix some of the problems that Ross discovered. Ross then reviewed the scope of work orders provided by the sellers and spend more time explaining why certain items were being done incorrectly. Ross truly went above and beyond. My husband and I were extremely pleased with Ross and Domicile. Ross is extremely knowledgeable, patient and super friendly. read more

Dan Cullen and team are the best home inspectors in Chicago. Trust no one else...these guys are the gold standard and know their craft. This isn't a topical home inspection, this is a surgical inspection of what is really going on in your home. read more

I called Dan Cullen to request a home inspection. He states the only opening was later in the week and would reserve that spot. The following day, I contacted him to confirm. He states that he already scheduled that time frame with another buyer. It's unprofessional on his part to promise the time slot, yet not follow thru with his commitment. Was it because the property was a foreclosure? Was it because I asked questions re: roof inspection during our phone conversation? Or was it because my hyphenated last name is of Spanish origin? If the third is the case, then this inspector is racist. As any home buyer knows, the time crunch is during the first ten days with an inspector. Dan Cullen has now left me scrambling for a home inspector, meanwhile the clock is ticking on the contract. Thanks, Dan, I appreciate your unprofessionalism in leaving me stranded. read more

We were so impressed with Bill B. that we requested him for our inspector for a home that we had under contract. Bill was extremely thorough finding items that were of concern. He provided additional information and web sites which helped us in our negotiation. He again took the time to answer any questions and make sure I was comfortable with inspection. His report was timely and detailed. We will be recommending Domicile and Bill to anyone buying a home. read more

Ross is THE MAN. He is a buyer's best friend and a shady seller's worst nightmare. Brutal in his assessment of the property and the report is very thorough. Look at all these five star reviews...how can it get much better? read more

I was very pleased with Domicile Consulting. My daughters are purchasing a condo and Phil Gould, with Domicile Consulting, came out to do an inspection about 10 days ago. He was extremely thorough and spent a substantial amount of time examining the premises. He explained what he was doing and told me about any of his concerns during the process. He took photos and issued a detailed report that was available the next day. I found him to be very knowledgeable and willing to discuss his findings during and after the inspection. read more

I couldn't be happier that I've discovered this company; I am already a repeat customer. My husband and I put in an offer on a house few months back and had Ken Whitelaw. We were unable to reach a deal with the owners post inspection (when we found that the brand new windows in the home were defective and did not open). Ken was great. He was pleasant and really seemed to be having a wonderful time through the inspection. I think it's kind of like a treasure hunt for him. He gave me all the time I needed in person and on the phone for answering questions I had. We walked away from that house, and have now found another house. Andrew Danner was our inspector this time. This house is over 150 years old and unfortunately, had a crappy renovation. Of course, we wouldn't have known it was a crappy renovation if we hadn't had Andrew. There were many things that only a very experienced person, and a person with fancy equipment would be able to find. I very much want this house to work, and now (thanks to Andrew) I know exactly what it will take for this to become a worry-free home for me. Fingers crossed! I look forward to chatting with Andrew in the upcoming days. He is super approachable, gives clear explanations, and generally puts my mind at ease because I know I have a brilliant person on my team working hard for me. Bravo to Domicile Consulting! This place only hires the best. Super thorough reports with pictures, amazing customer service, and they're there for you after the report is delivered as well. This company may cost a bit more than some others, but the price is appropriate for the level of service they deliver. If you want peace of mind, go with this company! read more

My Fiance and I spent almost all of 2013 looking for a home to call our own. After several offers declined, being outbid 4 or 5 times, and two inspections by Domicile Consulting, we finally found our home. The only problem is that we had the house inspection done by another guy. He was recommended by our real estate agent. Good Lord, how we are regretting it now. We are having frost issues in our roof, a completely missing layer in said roof. Trying to go back to the inspection report is almost useless, it is so vague. Long story short, do not make the same mistake we did. Trust your gut and use Domicile Consulting LLC. You will be happier in the end. read more
