Buying in Brooklyn most likely means buying not new property. Much of the borough’s housing is a century old or more, and it has been renovated, split into units and patched many times since. A brownstone in Park Slope, a co-op in Bay Ridge and a new condo in Williamsburg each fail in different ways. New York Home Inspections has inspected Brooklyn homes since 2018. We know where to look before you sign.
Party walls, parapets and flat roofs take the most wear. We check cornices, stoops, old plumbing and knob-and-tube wiring left from past renovations.
We test outlets, panels, windows, appliances, radiators and signs of leaks from units above, and flag building-wide problems to raise with the board.
Common in Bensonhurst, Sunset Park and Flatbush. We inspect every unit, shared boilers and water heaters, and signs of illegal basement or attic units.
Found in Marine Park, Mill Basin and Midwood. We add drone roof checks, recommend a sewer scope, and evaluate grading and drainage around the foundation.
New doesn't mean done right. We check workmanship, flashing, ventilation and whether the work matches the listing's claims.
Storefronts below, apartments above. Our commercial inspections cover both the business space and the residential units.

An average home inspection in New York is around $550. The price depends on the type of property and its square footage, so a co-op or condo costs less than a multi-family brownstone. We charge a flat rate with no surprises.
Most condos and co-ops take 1–2 hours. Single-family homes and brownstones take 2–3 hours, and multi-family homes take longer. See our full guide.
