(Kansas City, MO-January 2025) --In the heart of Kansas City, Missouri, a new venture by Connor T. Burns is set to revolutionize the home inspection industry. At the age of 44, Burns brings a wealth of experience and enterprising spirit to his new business, Pillar To Post Home Inspectors, under the business entity name Pristine Team. With a territory that spans Kansas City and 33 counties straddling the Missouri and Kansas border, Burns is poised to make a significant impact in the field.

Burns' journey to entrepreneurship began in his formative years, being raised in the family-owned restaurant called Californos, which operated for an impressive 32 years. This environment instilled in him essential life skills such as quality, reliability, hard work, and customer service. These values have been the cornerstone of his professional endeavors and have shaped his approach to business.

20 years previous to this, Burns took a bold step by helping a friend start a reclaimed wood company named Elmwood Reclaimed Timber. What began as a modest three-person operation quickly grew into a thriving enterprise with 45 employees, generating $8 million in annual sales. This remarkable success story is a testament to Burns' dedication, vision, and leadership.

After 22 years of service at an executive level, Burns felt the call to chart his own course. His experience as a long-term homeowner and real estate investor sparked his interest in the home inspection industry. It was during this exploration that he discovered Pillar To Post and was deeply impressed with the organization's commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction.

Pillar To Post Home Inspectors is renowned for its comprehensive and transparent approach to home inspections. The company prides itself on providing clients and agents with the information they need to make informed decisions. Burns' Pristine Team aims to uphold and exceed these standards, ensuring that every inspection is thorough, accurate, and delivered with the utmost professionalism.

Buying a home is one of the largest investments most people will make in their lifetime. Understanding this, Burns is committed to making the home-buying process as stress-free and straightforward as possible. By joining forces with Pillar To Post, he can leverage their extensive resources, innovative technology, and proven methodologies to offer unparalleled service to his clients.

Burns' effective communication skills and passion for helping others are evident in his approach to business. He believes in executing a quality process that reduces stress for all parties involved—clients, agents, and employees alike. His goal is to provide a seamless experience that supports clients in making confident decisions and empowers agents to assist their clients effectively.

One of the key aspects of Burns' service is the pre-sale home inspection. This service helps homeowners understand potential concerns, provides an opportunity for repairs, and ensures that the home can command or maintain a reasonable price. By offering this service, Burns not only aids sellers in preparing their homes for the market but also enhances the overall transparency and trust in real estate transactions.

“During the housing boom that followed the COVID outbreak, many people rushed into buying new homes,” shared Burns. “They wanted more space since they thought they might be homebound indefinitely, or they wanted to move to a city without strict restrictions. For whatever reason, many buyers were in competition for the same homes as demand rose. Many overpaid and waived important contingencies like the home inspection. Many now have Buyer’s Remorse due to lack of an inspection. We’re here to say don’t ever forego one and our Ultimate Home Inspection package, developed for that time, uses innovative technology that is a dream for every homeowner.”

The Pristine Team, under Burns' leadership, is officially opened. This launch marks the beginning of a new chapter in Burns' entrepreneurial journey and promises to bring a new level of excellence to the home inspection industry in Kansas City and beyond.

As Burns embarks on this exciting venture, his vision for the future is clear. He aims to build a business that is synonymous with quality, reliability, and exceptional customer service. By fostering a culture of transparency and support, he hopes to make a lasting positive impact on the home inspection industry and the community he serves.

"Although it was a gamble, becoming a homeowner at a young age sparked my interest in the industry and made owning a business a realistic goal. The investment in my home has now enabled me to invest in my own business. My goal is to attract and develop quality employees and, when the time is right, sell the business to one of them," said Burns.
