Home Inspections in Cheektowaga

Cheektowaga is the 3rd-largest town by population in Western NY, after Amherst and Buffalo.  The village of Sloan is within Cheektowaga’s boarder, as is(strangely) half of the village of Depew. 

Cheektowaga, Sloan and Depew are desirable places to purchase real estate because of their central location and relatively affordable home prices.  

Alto Home Inspection is often called by locals and home buyers when they are looking for a home inspector in Cheektowaga.  We are very familiar with the construction of houses in town, their electrical and plumbing systems, and other quirks. A home’s siding and roofing often are points of concern in Cheektowaga, and we take our time documenting our findings with these materials.

The name “Cheektowaga” was derived from a Seneca phrase that means “land of the crab apples”.  Although today there are not many crab apples in town, it is a great place to live and to buy a home. 

Cheektowaga has over 80,000 residents, and many of the houses were built in the post-war era. Like all of Erie county and Western New York, however, there are many homes which were constructed in the early 1900’s.

 The town sits between Buffalo, Amherst, Lancaster and West Seneca.  Those who work in Buffalo love living in Cheektowaga because of the extremely easy commute, and for everyone else they have easy access to nightlife, dining, Sabres games and other entertainment options. 

Higher education is easily accessible for residents as well, with SUNY Empire State College catering to adult learners and Villa Maria College positioned near the border of Cheektowaga and Buffalo.
