he customer should look for abbreviated comments, photographs, and videos. This may indicate that the inspector did not spend enough time in the home.

A professional home inspector will look for any cosmetic or failed systems in the home. This includes foundation, structural, roof drainage, electrical, plumbing, appliances, HVAC and general cosmetic appearance. Additionally, the inspector can look for deficiencies in all systems in detached structures, private waste disposal systems, swimming pools, and landscape and irrigation systems.

Only the inspector is required to be at the inspection. However, I do encourage the prospective buyer to be present at the end of the inspection, so that I may go through my findings and explain in person.

If the inspection report reveals any problems, this will be reflected in the report itself.

The inspector working for someone selling a home will look for all defective or cosmetic issues in the home.

Any home inspector trained in swimming pool evaluation is eligible for swimming pool reporting.

A home inspector inspecting a swimming pool will look for any signs of water penetration or escape from the controlled environment. Masonry and decks are also included in the investigation. He/she will also look at electrical, pump and plumbing systems and give findings on that evaluation.

In most cases on my report, everything is not needed to be corrected. My reports are very comprehensive and the items listed are not all in need of repair. It is simply a report of anything that is not correct at the time of inspection. There can be items in the report that need to be corrected due to deficient operation or those that may be failing. In that instance, it is left up to the negotiation between the buyer and seller of the home as to who will repair the deficient items.

The client is the owner of the report. In most cases, the agent of the client will receive the report as well. Any other person that wishes a copy of the report would contact the owner of the report.
