Accu-View Property Inspections Inc

Dear Rick, From the moment we met, it has been such a great experience, starting with your kindness, wonderful demeanor, and respect, as two parties involved in a transaction should have. You explained the process, the timeframe, and met all that you promised to deliver. It really was a pleasure. In this day and age, where many service providers do not value the customer, you have proven your excellence in providing customer service and more. Your willingness to help in the future with any questions or concerns is greatly appreciated. Thank you again! Sincerely, Sonji S.

Rick's extremely thorough report and deep expertise empowers this new home owner to do the right next steps for his new home!

Provided well over what was expected, with attention to detail that informed us of property defects everyone else missed. Phenomenal value for the price, which was also well-under what was expected. Because of Rick, I know our future home will be safe for me and my family.

The inspector - Rick - was very nice, courteous and professional, as well as very smart! As a new home buyer, I did not know anything about inspections or anything about the house I was buying. Rick walked me through the entire house, step by step, explained what he was doing, what he was looking for, and what his professional evaluation was for each part of the house. Now I feel like I know my home inside out and I know what to look for or expect in the future. Besides his knowledge and awesome work, Rick’s prices are very reasonable and he also works very efficiently. I received my Full inspection report the same day and that was 1 step closer to me purchasing my home. Thank you Rick for giving me the confidence in understanding and knowing what I’m buying in a new home! A+++ service!

Rick is an exceptional home inspector. He is thorough, detail oriented, knowledgeable and honest. His assessment of our problem property was extensive—he noted every issue, giving the outside, basement, and every other area of concern, meticulous scrutiny. More than that, made us, first time home buyers, daunted by a complex process, feel completely at ease. He went over every detail of the house, explaining for us each item and clarifying every conclusion. For his professionalism, expertise and kindness, Rick has earned the highest of recommendations.

I am a first time home buyer and had no idea what to look for in relation to current problems that needed to be addressed immediately or future potential problems. Rick is a true professional, he was extremely thorough and had extensive knowledge throughout the entire home inspection. He provided a very detailed report with pictures and explanations that I will be able to use to when hiring someone to improve my home. Rick is great at his job, I felt like I had a family member helping me. He came highly recommended from friends, and now I too recommend him for "the best home inspection at a reasonable cost".

Wonderful!! Thorough Professional. Our Report was delivered within 12 hours.

Rick was a very thorough , professional inspector. Provided clear and precise information in all aspects of the inspection. Very Personable.

Excellent. Very professional & thorough. I would highly recommend Rick to family, friends & realtors I know

I’m in the processing of buying my first home, so naturally it is a very overwhelming experience. Rick noticed how nervous I was and really went out of his way to make me feel comfortable! He answered every question I had (which was lots) and took his time to explain everything along the way! I would 100% recommend Rick

Rick recently inspected our first home. He was always quick to respond, and overall a professional and all around nice guy. His report was delivered less than 24 hours later, and was FULL of detail with plenty of high resolution photographs to back up his findings. Moreover he took the time to explain it to us in layman's terms. I would HIGHLY recommend Accuview.

It went very well. Rick kept us informed all through the inspection. Nice guy.

Very knowledgeable and thorough. Took a long time to go through the house very carefully. It was an old house so that was appreciated that he took his time and did not rush. Was not concerned about having to spend a little extra time. Was friendly and professional. Absolutely would hire again.

Rick was fantastic. He explained the house as he inspected and provided a great assessment of the home. So far everything he suggested would need repair has occurred as he predicted. He gives a thorough report and is available for suggestions even after your inspection. We highly recommend his services.

This experience went AMAZINGLY! Rick from Accu-View Property Inspections, Inc. was incredible and I enjoyed working with him! I am a first-time home buyer and have been a little nervous throughout the entire process because I haven't known what to expect. Rick explained everything to me step-by-step and made me feel very comfortable going through the house. He gave me great insight, was honest, and sent me a completed report in less than 24 hours of the inspection. Rick was very thorough and I feel very educated and comfortable continuing with the biggest purchase of my life.

A+++++

Rick Pezzino was punctional, professional and incredibly thorough with our home inspection.  Being first time homebuyers, we went in largely on the knowledge of what family, friends, and the internet told us.  Rick took the time to not only point out WHAT was an issue, but explain why it was an issue and include potential timelines needed for remediation (whether it were immediate or mid/long term).

It should also be noted that Rick is incredibly personable, and openly invites clients to walk through every step of the home inspection with him.  I would definitely recommend Richard Pezzino and AccuView Services.

Very well. See above.

Because of the competitive nature of the Buffalo market, Rick was quick to take my call and schedule a time to do work. He happily scheduled me in only a few days after my offer was accepted (I also called him before my offer was accepted on a different house, and he was willing to see me the day after the offer went through).
Rick was thorough. I was reluctant to hire an inspector referred to me by a realtor, but friends of mine spoke highly of Rick. My fear was that he would do a basic inspection and give me obvious advice. Turns out I had nothing to fear. 
Rick spent about an hour in the basement checking walls, gas lines, water lines, the electrical service, and the sewage. He inspected most of the power outlets, and tagged in his report anything that needed attention. He checked the water pressure, and gave me suggestions on how to fix everything. 
On the outside of the house, he checked the electrical service, health of the roof, the garage, and even noted some odd things that he suggested I get looked at when I take possession because it could give me a headache (wide spacing in garage roof rafters).
He inspected the grounds thoroughly. Brought binoculars to get a great view of every inch of the house. 
On the first and second floors, he made notes of issues with windows (damaged seals, cracks), and evaluated with me on whether they should be replaced or not. He gave perspective on everything.
He is clean too. Gloves and foot coverings during the entire inspection. 
Rick had answers for everything. There was one odd plumbing setup that was difficult to explain. Rick didn't know why the owners did it, but he was able to let me know how to fix it quickly. He also advised me that my hot water tank was old, and that I should buy one now because the regulations have changed, making new ones much more expensive. 
Great guy. Super friendly. Operated quickly. Didn't charge me a dime over what he provided. Additionally, he had his full 45 page report to me the next day (which was a Sunday!).

I was extremely satisfied with the inspection Rick did.  He was very professional  He was not the cheapest but it was well worth the extra dollars. I feel very satisfied that I can trust his report.    Most important in a home inspector to me are 1) they work for you and not your agent or their reputation with agents but for you and only you.  2) they follow a system so they don't overlook items and are clear with you at all points what they do and do not inspect.  3) they are able to explain things as they go and in the report but not be so distracted that they lose the flow of the inspection and miss something.  Rick was A+ on all these fronts.  In addition his report is clear, photos and notations with major items in RED so you have a clear look at action items.  
He found some major problems that we were already aware of but was able to expand on the scope of the issue, he was respectful to both our agent and the sellers agent but reported to us his opinion even when it varied from what the agents were saying.  He referred us to additional inspection due to a major structural issue.  We were aware of some issues that the home seller was fixing, he found additional problems that need a second look.  
I will call him again the next time I need an inspection.

I called and left a message. I was contacted within an hour. We set up a time within a week during peak season of home transactions in my area. Rick was prompt, courteous and explained in detail what he was seeing as we went through the house. For example, he pointed out that the fan from the bathrooms went into the attic but not through the roof and that may lead to a mold issue. He showed me how a simple $15 water dish and the drain pipe attached under the water heater had the potential to save me a lot of money if the water heater were to ever leak. He showed me that changing the dryer exhaust from a plastic one to a metal one could prevent problems down the road. I learned that new air vents had been put in the roof when it was replaced and the ability to see sunlight meant that air is circulating which will prevent moisture and mold issues.
Within 18 hours I received a detailed report with many pictures detailing all aspects of the property I wished to purchase.
He even knocked off $25 because he finished earlier than he expected as the property is small.
I highly recommend this company.
Also, it was suggested to have a radon test because of high levels in a couple nearby homes that had high levels and a map that showed possible problems. Despite not having a basement, I decided to trust Rick. I am glad I did. People were telling me there is almost no likelihood of radon without a basement. Was this a money grab? NO! I was saved a great deal of money and headaches (literally?) thanks to Rick's knowledge.

He is a little more thorough than some of the other home inspectors I have worked with. He is a lot more educational to his clients. He'll teach them as he goes through if something is wrong. I have already reffered him to one of my clients.
