I highly recommend.Posted on Erica XTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard did an exceptionally thorough inspection and identified issues with the house that we never would have noticed on our own. His documentation was highly professional, with clear and detailed explanations of all the important findings, and he was unfailingly patient in answering our questions. We would strongly and enthusiastically recommend him to anyone in need of a home inspection.Posted on Maria CatalinaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rich did a more than perfect inspection of a condo that we were considering in a nearby retirement community. He was professional, friendly, thorough, accurate, & kept us posted throughout his visit. My husband accompanied him through many of the mechanical things & Rich answered any questions that we had on the spot. We trusted him completely. Because of his very thorough report, we decided not to purchase this condo which had several unseen issues. Had we not used Rich's services, we would have blindly purchased a condo with a lot of problems. We would highly recommend NY Finest Home Inspections and would use Rich again. My advice: never buy anything without a complete inspection by NY Finest Home Inspections!Posted on veronica parkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
