Three official checks take ten minutes and catch most bad quotes: is the contractor licensed, does the job need a permit, and who actually owns the property. These are the offices for Suffolk County and MA:

Contractor / professional licence
Massachusetts license check
Building permits & inspections
Boston Inspectional Services
Property ownership & assessed value
City of Boston Assessing
Recorded deeds, liens & mortgages
Suffolk Registry of Deeds
What HouseIQ does not do in Boston: we do not have local staff, we do not call contractors "verified", and we do not pull permits for you. We check the paperwork you have and keep the record straight.
