Choose Accreditation

Did you know that only Licensed Professional Engineers are qualified to analyze structural conditions in a house or building in New York State? Home inspectors are not recognized by NYS as being qualified to diagnose structural problems. As licensed Engineers our evaluations are also accepted by FHA and HUD.

Choose a Detailed Report

Our reports are detailed narrative reports that specifically describe our findings in an easily understandable manner. Digital photography is also utilized to enhance and personalize the report. Other home inspection firms will provide a more general and “boiler plate” check sheet format, usually provided by a franchise organization.

Choose Ethics

We work for you! Although we enjoy a great reputation with the real estate community in the Rochester area, we understand it is our client that we must serve. Burgasser Consulting does not have any financial bond with real estate companies, including payment of advertising fees in exchange for referrals.
