This is an actual inspection report on a new spec home. The client's name and the address of the property have been substituted on the report. This is an example of why a new home constructed by a quality minded builder should be inspected. Many contractors and builders operate a quality assurance program employing either currently licensed or previously licensed TREC inspectors who assist the builder in addressing many of the issues found in a home inspection.  It has been my  experience that even with such programs a significant number of issues either escape or are ignored by the builder’s inspector that have an impact on the safety and/or integrity of the home.  I have yet to inspect a new home in which the inspection fee did not more than pay for itself.

This is an actual inspection report on an existing home.  The client’s name and the address of the property have been substituted on the report.  Even with a home that is only a few years old that has been well maintained issues usually begin to show up that may impact your safety and/or your finances.
