What your file gets
- A written report inside 48 hours, emailed to you, the buyer and the lender at the same time — you don’t have to forward anything
- Photos of the tank, baffles and filter, dated, so nobody argues later about what condition it was in
- Tank pumped as part of the inspection — you can’t honestly assess a tank you haven’t emptied, and some inspectors don’t
- A plain-English verdict: passing, passing with a note, or a problem — and what the problem will cost to fix
- The as-built location on file, so the buyer knows where their tank is on day one
We won’t pass a tank to save a deal. If it needs a leach field, the report says so and gives you a number. Agents who send us repeat work do it because the report holds up — not because it always says yes.
Book an inspection
Closing date first — we’ll work backwards from it and tell you straight away if it’s tight.
Why lenders ask for this
New York doesn’t require a septic inspection to sell a house. Lenders routinely do — FHA, VA and USDA files in particular — and a deal can sit for a week waiting on one.
We keep two slots a week open for closings specifically, because a closing date doesn’t move for a route schedule. If you’re inside ten days, call rather than use the form.
