Catskill sits just across the Hudson, about twenty minutes north of our Lake Katrine shop. Property assessment for homes and businesses in Catskill, NY.
Buying in Catskill often means buying a house with a well, a septic system, an oil tank and outbuildings — four systems, each with its own failure mode and its own price.
In a town where oil is still the leading heat source, the tank matters as much as the boiler. An ageing tank in a basement, or worse, a buried one, is a liability that can cost more than the heating system. We report on the tank's condition and the supply line, not just the burner.
A general inspection runs the water and flushes. It does not tell you the well's recovery rate or open the septic tank. On a rural property those are the two most expensive unknowns in the purchase, and both are answerable in a single visit.

Usually within a few days, and we can often work around a tight inspection contingency. Call with your deadline and we will tell you honestly whether we can meet it.
