Above and beyond service! Would recommend to anyone looking for a home inspection.

Jerry was fast and got our inspection done before our quick deadline. I would recommend again. He even drove an hour out of his way to make sure water test got done that day.

Very Professional, personable, and honest. Also, was able to get an inspection done at a convenient time for me. All around A+

We are first time home buyers in an extremely competitive buyer's market. We've been looking for a home for over a year and finally found a home we liked enough to put an offer in on, which was accepted. Upon going under contract, our agent recommended Jerry to conduct our inspection based on past positive experiences with him. Purchasing a home is a huge investment, and you want to buy a home that not only meets your needs, but is carefully reviewed in the inspection process to ensure your investment is solid, and you're not going to find out after closing and moving in that you have a ton of unexpected expenses. Jerry understands how important this part of the home buying experience this is for buyers. He is extremely responsive and timely in his communication, he explains every part of the inspection process prior to beginning as well as during the walk-through of the property. Every portion of the house is closely reviewed and analyzed including the exterior. He doesn't sugarcoat the results. He tells it like it is, informs you on recommendations as he sees fit, and gives you honest and open feedback, while also injecting his own perspective on the process of buying a home and what comes along with it. For example, older homes are going to have some issues. The home we are buying was built in 1925. He's not going to come in and tell us everything is perfect. But along with the results of his findings, he eased our minds by telling us that all things can be fixed, prioritize what's most important (any health and safety issues, etc.) and then figure out what else you want/need to do and do it as you can (both as far as time and finances). He doesn't just speak "inspector talk". He talks to you like a real person who is making the largest financial investment of their lives and he's your advocate for looking out for that investment.

Finally, Jerry not only tells you what he's doing, and explains his findings. He ENCOURAGES you to ask questions and learn along the way. This may seem like a small detail but I assure you it is not. I've been on inspections where inspectors appease the buyer by answering their questions, but Jerry truly wants you to inquire about anything you're curious about. He asked us multiple times during the process if we had any questions. I greatly appreciated his encouragement to include us in the inspection and become educated about the condition of the home. Jerry is extraordinarily knowledgable and experienced and we found his rate to be very reasonable given the top level services he provided. If we could give him 6 stars, we would...

Working with Jerry was great! He was extremely thorough, explained everything clearly, and provided the follow up report less than a day after the inspection. Jerry was very friendly, easy to work with, and answered all of my questions - there was no detail too small for his attention. I’m glad to have worked with Jerry and absolutely recommend him!

Jerry from OnPoint did my inspection for a multi-unit property. He was amazing to work with and answered all of my questions. It being my first property, I was not sure of all of the questions I should be asking. Jerry went over everything in detail and flagged everything I should be aware of. Then advised me on what I should be taking care of immediately. Could not be happier!

Because I am a first-time buyer, I asked my realtor, who I implicitly trust and over the past year has also become my special friend, for the name of the best person he would recommend to inspect the home I intended to purchase. Without hesitation he said, Jerry Livingston. I asked him why this person? His response was, “He is a straight shooter and good at what he does”. I called Jerry Livingston of the OnPoint Home Inspections Service. Jerry was meticulous! He left no stone unturned, pun intended. In addition to his expertise, he truly was forthright, extremely knowledgeable and patient in all of his responses to my plethora of questions. As far as I am concerned, anyone intending to live in Maine and are in need of the Best Home Inspection, the only person to call, is Jerry Livingston.
