"My wife and I are both first-time home buyers and don't really know a lot about houses. We are so happy that we decided to ask John to do the home inspection for us after interviewing 5 other candidates.

John is very patient, knowledge and professional. We got there earlier than the appointment time and John was already there waiting for us. From the beginning of inspection, John explained everything to us as we went, including the function of an item, the current condition of it, what to watch out for, etc. My friends told me that their inspectors just walked around the house in silence and took notes on pads. I was worried that we'd get the same treatment. But five minutes after meeting John, my concern was totally gone. While doing a thorough inspection, John was able to turn the 3.5 hours into a very enjoyable educational experience. I think that's very important for first-time home buyers. Now with John's expertise and professional advice, we feel much more confident about our purchase decision. Thank you so much, John! We'll definitely keep your business card for future :-)"
3/30/12 M. Htut East Brunswick, NJ

"John - thanks for all your help with the home inspection. I was very skeptical on who should I call for getting a thorough home inspection and then I looked up your info online and decided to go with you -- probably the best decision I have made. John arrived 30 minutes earlier than the appointment time - just to monitor the house from the exterior and had his report with snapshots ready. Just as we arrived, he greeted us very politely and told us everything we needed to know, from the exterior, all around the house, from the interior and each and every possible thing that we - as new and first time house owners - would need to know. Working with John, we were worry and tension free and immediately realized that he is very smart, knowledgeable and knew exactly what needs to be checked. He explained everything that we needed to know with great precision and minute details. There is absolutely no flaw in his perfection and knowledge as a home inspector. THIS is what I need from a good home inspector. Also his report was excellent as it gave us so much details with snaps of each and everything he considered that needed fixes and to be looked upon. I will always use his skills for all future needs, and I would recommend him to any and every individual I can and I know who needs a home inspection. I once again want to thank you for your dedicated work and guidance with the
home inspection...Thanks"

--12/15/11, The Shah Family

"John arrived before all of us, he was professional and honest. He explained things to me in detail and was very patient when I asked him a multitude of questions. He also offered his advice on how to prevent certain problems and how to remedy situations that already existed. His report was detailed and had pictures showing the areas that were of concern. He was thorough, checked every area, took his time, and did not rush my inspection. I felt that he was truly working just for me, had my best interest at heart. Even my agent was impressed, because she had recommended her own inspector, which I had used on a previous sale, but this time I decided to get my own unbiased inspector. I am sure glad I did. I would highly recommend John!"'
7/3/2011, S.N Netcong, NJ

Thank you John, I received the inspection report and I have to say I am very impressed at the thoroughness of it. I just went though the whole report and it was very easy to understand and loved the pictures in the report. I just emailed it to my Atty I am sure I will be discussing issues with him tomorrow. Thanks for explaining everything and for being so patient. You are a true professional.
Sincerely,
Sonia A. Buzzelli

"I actually researched dozens of inspectors, I contacted John approximately 10:15pm and he answered the questions I had concerning the services he provides. I could not have made a better choice he saved me thousands and helped me re-negotiate my contract with his findings".
-A. Armstrong, Plainfield, NJ

John is very knowledgeable, courteous, and meticulous. He spent a hours inspecting the home, looked at everything carefully, and explained the situation thoroughly whenever I had concerns. A detailed inspection report was released in just half of a day. As a first time home buyer, I am happy to have someone like John who cares about my interest and provides me some professional and unbiased opinions about the house. I would recommend John to anyone.
Top notch services!

-Y. Ma- E. Windsor, NJ

"I'm extremely satisfied. I genuinely feel I choose the right person
for the job. John was pleasant and most importantly informative
and knowledgeable"

10/12/2009 - A. September, Oakland, NJ

"Thanks so much for such an amazing job on the inspection and for such a thorough and detailed report!  I have to say - I remember the last home inspection we did about 6 years ago when we bought our last house - and I thought our inspector at the time was really good.  Mind you, it was a smaller house, but his report was like 8 pages. Yours is over 40 with pictures and coverage down to the individual outlet, window, etc. So much really valuable detail!"
11/27/2009-C. Cerruto, Glen Ridge, NJ

"Thank you for the outstanding service in inspecting our potential home. We really enjoyed meeting you and the time and care you put into inspecting the house. We felt as though you were inspecting your own house.  The report with the pictures was really very valuable and the turn around time was outstanding. We would definitely recommend you to others as well as call you again"
2/16/10 - M.C Landing, NJ

"It was a great experience working with John. He has a very sharp eye. Very detailed and thorough inspection. John does not cut corners. After a home inspection with LookSmart you will know exactly what you are buying"
4/ 20/2010 B. Aboulenian, Avenel, NJ 

"Home buying can be a very stressful experience. Hiring John Martino at LookSmart was probably the easiest part of my home purchase. His fees are affordable and his schedule is very flexible. John is extremely thorough with his inspection and the inspection report can be completed in less then 48 hours. I was also impressed by the quality of his reports containing photos and summaries of his findings. I highly recommend LookSmart!!"
Yvett Plaza, Dover, NJ

"Great experience. I would recommend Look Smart to ANYONE! Worth every penny and very detailed, friendly, thorough, reasonable and reliable. Two Thumbs way up!" 3/1/2013 S. Rotella, Middlesex, NJ

"Hi John. Just a little note to thank you and tell you how much we
enjoyed working with you at the time of our home inspection. We really
appreciate the passion you demonstrated to find all the issues during
the home inspection. Thank you for your diligence and dedication. We
will be more than happy to refer you to any of our friends in need of
home inspections". 
1/28/2013 V &L Pedada, Parsippany, NJ

"John Martino from LookSmart home inspections was fantastic! His inspection of our townhome was so thorough and he answered all of our questions the entire time. John was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable from the get go. John was also open to answering some questions after we received his thorough and well written report which included clear pictures as well. We would absolutely recommend John and LookSmart to anyone needing a home inspection".
1/14/2013 Cristina, Wayne NJ

"This is the second home inspection that we had with John. He found many
problems in the first house that he inspected for us. We would have
never found the carbon monoxide problem or the problems inside the
attic. We are very happy with John's work ethic and thoroughness. We've
had other home inspections in the past that have taken only 90 min. 
John's inspection was over three hours with us answering questions and
explaining everything that he found. I already gave his name to a
coworker of mine." 11/27/2012  J. Tirado, N. Brunswick, NJ

"We received an excellent inspection on a house we were planning on buying...Thanks to the thoroughness of John's work we were spared an important mistake and decided not to purchase. We plan to use him again in the near future to check on a future home purchase as well as a preinspection on our home to be sold to spot any problems early"
10/8/12 B. Bear. Montville, NJ

"First, we want to thank John very much for conducting the home inspection. It was a pleasure to have John to do the home inspection for us. John was already on site when we arrived. John knew our hearing impaired situation. John took his time to explain everything to us in face to face contact. Sometimes John would point out things he wanted to explain to us. John has made us to know our house from inside and out. We feel very confident to move in the house and knowing what we need to repair our house. John's report was detailed and had pictures showing what we need to address. John worked with us for 3 hours and we felt we have known our house for years. Amazing! John's fee is very reasonable. We received John's report in 2 days. John is a true professional. We would highly recommend John!" 8/29/12 - John & Deborah, Hawthorne, NJ

"When we were looking for an inspector to look at a property we had in mind, we were hoping to find someone competent, helpful, and easy to work with. John at LookSmart Home Inspections was exactly what we were looking for. His thoroughness during the inspection and the knowledge he displayed relating to issues affecting homes, as well as how to go about addressing those issues, really showed us that we were dealing with someone who knew what they were talking about. John's willingness to answer our questions has made us much more comfortable in the decision-making process involved in purchasing a property. The ease with which we were able to contact LookSmart and the quickness with which we received our report was also a welcome aspect of the experience for two anxious first-time home buyers. Overall, we could not have asked for better service from John and LookSmart Home Inspections and we are confident that the inspection has put us in a position to make the most-informed decision possible."
9/5/2012 J & B. Sullivan, Ramsey NJ

"On 08/04/12, I hired John Martino to do my home inspection and I must say he made me feel very comfortable about the whole process. I will be a first time home buyer and I've developed trust issues, I barely trust my realtor. However, going through the inspection with John, I felt that he really had my back and was protecting me through the whole process. He explained everything as we were going through the inspection and gave me much needed advice. He pointed out that the company of the electrical panel used in the home went out of business due to safety issues, and that was one show of how educated in his field he is. I have already bragged among my friends how great John was and in the future I will use his services again." Thanks, Karen

"Thank you for your extremely thorough and detailed inspection of our new home! Your professionalism and attention to detail went far beyond what we have received in the past (and this is our 3rd home). We will fully recommend you to anyone we know of looking for a home inspection. As a result of your report, we received a credit of $10,000.00 at closing! Once again, thank you". 7/3/12 C Hoinowski. Branchburg, NJ

“Within 10 minutes of the start of my inspection, I realized that John was the best inspector I have had on a purchase (this is my 4th home). Pertinent, detailed knowledge just seemed to flow out of him and comments were presented in a manner that was easy to understand. The inspection report was prompt and thorough. I was very impressed. I heartily recommend LookSmart Home Inspections and would not hesitate to use them again.” 6/19/12 J. Fields – Denville

"Hi John just wanted to let you know how happy we were with your services and professionalism. We scouted around a lot for an inspector we would be comfortable with and you certainly filled that role. You were very thorough, patient and didn't miss any of our concerns nor take any shortcuts. It was obvious you were there to do the job from A to Z and with our best interests in mind and we appreciate that. At this point, knowing there is nothing major to dissuade us from the purchase, we will likely proceed. Once again, thank you for your services and you will certainly be highly recommended!"
6/3/2012 M & S Barrows, Morristown, NJ

"I chose John to inspect our new home although our real estate agent had referred us to two other home inspectors (who have impressive credentials, too). However, John is one of the few IHINA certified home inspectors, and I was also impressed of all the detailed information he provides on his website. It was so obvious to me that he is an expert in his field. It turned out that I made the right decision. John is very detail oriented, and doesn't miss anything during his inspection, even if it is a spot that is hard to reach and hard to inspect. He was very patient with my endless list of questions, and he offered his advice about many other issues that I would never have been able to think of. When he left the location in the end, I had no doubt that he looked at EVERYTHING!

I recommend John to any other home buyer wholeheartedly, regardless of whether they are a first-time home buyer or experienced home owners. He will definitely be our choice again next time we consider buying a home". 4/30/12 E. Tortop, Sparta, NJ

"Hi John, Just wanted to let you know what a terrific home inspection report you provided, as you know I was not able to be there, your report is exactly as detailed as the website indicates. Your call on the unknown age of the furnace proved to be true....I requested the serial # from the seller and the unit turned out to be 23 years old. I would highly recommend the service you provide". 3/5/12 Thank You, Mike V.

"I just wanted to thank you for the detailed and thorough inspection that you did for us today. My husband is really excited to purchase this house and I think this helped him even more in giving him a little more perspective and comfort and focusing on what it is we will need to be doing in the next 12 months to 3 years. Thank you again. 2-6pm was a long old time".
2/25/12 R. Singleton, Warren NJ

"I definitely feel I made the right choice with this inspector. John spent over 3 hours. He went through everything. He explained many details and made sure to answer our questions. This is the inspector you want on your side. If something is wrong he will find it and clearly tell you what is wrong. Thanks for a job well done" W. Cruz, 2/17/12 Hackettstown, NJ

"Hi, John, Just to let you know that I had shown my friends your home inspection report. They all said "he did a very good job" (compared with their inspectors when they bought their house).
I definitely will recommend you to the commmunity".
Thanks again, 1/ 26/12 Carol L. West Windsor, NJ

"John, I just want to thank you for the excellent job you did on our home inspection. You were thorough, professional, and made it easy to understand the problems in our future home. I also appreciate the timely matter you sent our reports and having our best interest in mind. I will absolutely be recommending you to friends and family when its their time."
The Henderson's, 12/28/2011, Oak Ridge, NJ

"Hey John, I wanted to thank you so much for being so patient and thorough with us throughout the home inspection. You honestly made us feel a lot better and calmed our anxiety about purchasing the home. You didn't rush and answered all the questions that my wife and I had. Also, thank you for not wasting time in producing the report which was ready the next day. I'm glad we choose you as our home inspector and am confident that you found all visible and possible underlying conditions. Thank you so much and I would definitely use you again if I ever buy another home."
12/6/11 D. Caceres, Cedar Grove, NJ

"Thank you for the thorough inspection you provided us yesterday. Francesca's father gave you the highest compliments which is
difficult to achieve.

Thank you so much for all your help; your knowledge is greatly appreciated and we will definitely be giving you our business in the future as well as our friends and families" 12/4/11 A. Morin, Morristown, NJ

 

"This is my second home inspection with John. My brother and my cousin have also used John for their home inspections. John is easy to work with and very knowledgeable. He explains what he is doing during the inspection and is patient with questions. I learned a lot from the first home inspection and I was very confident in using him again for this second house".
11/15/11 J. Ciccone, Lyndhurst, NJ

"I found LookSmart on the internet and knew right away that he was the right home inspector for me. He was in front of the house when I arrived and had already done a walk around. He was very thorough and even after the inspection and inspection report he answered all my questions. Great job from a real professional". 10/26/11 - S. Incera, Dover, NJ

"Thank you so much for coming out last week and doing the home inspection for us. You did an amazing job explaining everything to us in person and then once again in your report. We appreciate the time you took to clearly go through everything as thoroughly as you did. I will definitely let our lawyer know about you and anyone else who is looking for an inspector in the future. Again, thank you." 10/25/2011 B. Funaro, Hillsborough, NJ

"I sincerely thank you for your time in home inspection as well as thorough report that you have provided. John was a very professional and knowledgeable home inspector. He explained everything in detail and provided me with the knowledge that I can use in the future. I would love to recommend John Martino to any of my friends and families. Thank you John for all your help". L. Dong 10/8/2011 Montclair, NJ

with his thoroughness, knowledge and professionalism. He took the time to answer all of our questions and we do not feel rushed. We have already referred him to some of our friends and family"
9/27/ 2011 N. Williams, Kinnelon, NJ

"We are very happy that we used John for our home inspection. He is very professional and very thorough with his report. This was very important to us being first time home buyers. John was able to point everything out to us and answer any questions we had in throughout the whole process. We are very happy that we chose John to do our home inspection and will definitely be using him in our future home purchases and recommending him to friends and family. Thanks again."
9/13/2011 Joe and Shanna

"Thank you John for conducting the home inspection for my condo in Hoboken. John was thorough, informative, and professional. As a first time buyer, I appreciated the fact that John answered all my questions as well as provided guidance on things to maintain and keep an eye out for. I would definitely recommend John to my family and friends as well as use
John for my future purchases."
9/10/11 Regards, Neil

 

"John Martino of LookSmart Home Inspections came out to inspect my new condo on a cold & rainy day and took his time in checking and explaining everything to me as it related to outside items. He was extremely through and informative upon inspecting the condo. He took the time to explain not only everything he was doing, but also WHY it needed to be done. He checked everything from the floor to the ceiling. He was able to answer ANY and ALL questions I had and made a few suggestions as to things that should be done before/upon moving in.

I would DEFINITELY recommend using LookSmart Home Inspections to anyone looking for a through, informative and FRIENDLY home inspector!!! THANKS JOHN!!!!!!"
9/6/11 D. Vasquez, Piscataway, NJ

"I used John's inspection service 2 years ago when I bought my house. I was very impressed and left him a good review, and I also recommended John to my friends who bought homes. Hired John again today for an inspection for a commercial building. Same high level of services, great attentiveness to details. I highly recommend him. John, thanks again".
8/31/11 Y. Ma from East Windsor.

"Good morning, John, Thank you for helping me to inspect the condo, and thank you for teaching me the things I need to know to propelry maintain the home (I definitely need that). I will definitely will pass on your information/services to my friends (if/when they need a home inspector)". 8/25/2011 C. Lawon, Princeton, NJ

"After researching online for Home inspectors, I found Looksmart home inspection the right choice. The website itself is very educative. I got in touch with John and before any commitment John emailed me a sample report which was very detailed. On the day of inspection John was well ahead of the appointment time and had already started the inspection from outside. When we arrived John went over many details which I didn't notice during my 3 prior visits. John didn't rush through the inspection and took his time till he was satisfied with his findings. Every minute item was inspected and recommendation was given. Whichever area that could be accessed was inspected. The report was emailed the very next day which contained numerous pictures and summary sheet which gives a recap of the entire inspection. I was very satisfied with the inspection and will recommend Looksmart to prospective buyers."

A. Merchant, Colonia

"John was great! The inspection was over three hours and he
answered all our questions and was patient. As first time buyers we
really appreciated that. The report was ready the next day and was
more detailed then we expected. We would definitely use John again
if we were to buy another house."
7/6/11 D. Sinclair, Hawthorne, NJ

"Thank you for providing the report so quickly and for performing such a thorough inspection. Your detailed descriptions and advice, both in person and in the report, will certainly be helpful as we move forward".
7/17/11 J Apgar, Wantage, NJ

"John was honest and very professional. I feel very comfortable with everything that he discovered. I am very pleased with his experience and highly recommend him for the services. I am very pleased with his work."
7/9/2011, Yash Shah, Somerset, NJ

"This is my second home inspection with LookSmart. I was very satisfied the first time and had no problem in using John again. John spent over three hours inspecting the home. He answered all of my questions and then delivered a very thorough home inspection report. I would recommend him without reservation". 6/25/11 A. Woredekal, Middlesex NJ

"John, I would just like to thank you again for your very thorough inspection you did on our house today. You are a true professional and I can see why you come so highly recommended. Thank you for your patience with
all of our questions and explaining everything as we went along.
I can't wait to read your report. Thank you again and I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a qualified, professional,
thorough and honest home inspector".
6/13/11, L. Kolessar, Stanhope, NJ 

 

"John did an awesome job on our home inspection. As a first time home buyer we were overwhelmed but he explained everything and answered all of our questions every step of the way.  He showed up early, was very patient, and inspected every inch of the house. The inspection report was very detailed and was ready in less than 24hrs. My husband and I would definitely recommend John to anybody. Thanks for the good job and making us feel comfortable!!!" 6/1/2011, T. Laurenza, E. Hanover, NJ

"Based on my research of John and his company, I went with LookSmart Home Inspections for my first home purchase. John was very thorough, and found issues immediately that I missed on my THREE previous visits to the home. He did a very thorough inspection of the exterior, interior(including basement), and of the detached garage. And he also did an excellent job explaining everything to me along the way, and I learned a lot in the 3+ hours of the inspection. I received the report the next day, and the report itself was very detailed and covered everything we had talked about during the inspection and more. I highly recommend John and LookSmart." 
5/19/2011, Kyle, Denville, NJ

"Hi John - the report was fantastic.  I am sure that we will refer to it often over the years that we own the house.  Knowing that my husband Mark has never seen the house, this report goes into the level of detail that we need in order to confidently negotiate with the sellers.  Many thanks!"
5/15/2011 N. Felix, Glen Ridge, NJ

"I had an idea of your thorough and detailed work based on reading
your past customer testimonials but your actual work on my prospective house went beyond my expectations. You had already arrived at the site before me and did the pre-survey of the exterior.  And I was impressed of your patience to thoroughly inspect the exterior and fully pointing out and explaining all the issues despite of the pouring rain.I'm a convert and I'll definitely preach to others about you.  Thanks again for your good work"
5/4/2010 D. Kim, Rivervale, NJ.

"Valerie and I greatly appreciated you and the service that performed
for us.  Your work was very professional, personal, patient, and
thorough. Your careful and balanced analysis, of the property we
had in question, gave us the confidence that the decision we were
making when buying our home was the right decision. You are,
as the friend who referred you to us said you would be, excellent". 
Thanks again. Eric and Valerie W.

"Thank very much for the quick response it is greatly appreciated. Also we would like to thank you for the thorough and very detailed Home Inspection that you provided us. We left with great knowledge of how healthy the house is. Your professionalism was fantastic and even our realtor stated that you are one of the most thorough she has seen, and the value that you offer is amazing". 4/23/2011 K Feehan, Rockaway, NJ

"Thank You John! Buying a home could be very stressful, but John made our home inspection a pleasant experience. He is very knowledgeable and explained things in great detail. He encouraged me to stay with him during the inspection and I found this to be very beneficial. He emailed a very detailed report the night of the inspection. Finding a good home inspector is very difficult, but you don't need to look any further then John at LookSmart. He is very fair in his pricing and also very professional.
4/14/2011 Thanks, Mike from Waretown, NJ"

"We couldn't be happier with the level of professionalism and detail you provided on the day of the home inspection and in your report. We look forward to recommending your services in the future"
4/10/2011 A. Chavez-Smith, S. Plainfield NJ 

"Once again, I appreciate the quick response with getting the inspection completed and the report out to me.  As I mentioned to you, I have a short timeframe to satisfy the bank requirements prior to the April 20th closing deadline and your ability to provide a quick turnaround between the actual inspection and finished report is fantastic!". Thanks again,
J Helmes, 4/5/11 Basking Ridge NJ

"Thank you for doing such a great job, I will recommend you to everyone!" 3/30/2011, K. Gans, Union, NJ

"Thank you for the quick turnaround of the inspection report. I had a
chance to read through it last night and the report looks great.  I really appreciate your attention to detail and your willingness to address all questions that we had throughout the inspection.  You truly made the experience informative and you are pleasure to work with". 
3/19/11 R. Ziobro, Flanders, NJ 

"LookSmart Home Inspection was the smartest decision we made in purchasing our home.  A detailed report was furnished the next day
