This is different from our technically exhaustive inspection which takes several days to complete, involves the use of specialized instruments, the dismantling of equipment, video scanning, destructive testing and laboratory analysis of possible contaminates. Our purpose is to identify defects or adverse conditions that need repair or replacement, are safety concerns or may lead to costs that would significantly affect your evaluation of the property at the time of this inspection. The purpose of the Inspection is to document in a narrative format the condition of the building at the time of the inspection. The inspection is a visual snapshot in time regarding the condition of the systems and components of the building at the time of the inspection and is not a warranty nor an insurance policy, but that should not deter you purchasing such a policy. The building has extensive deferred maintenance, as with all building systems, components, items, etc; need to be maintained properly though the years. We do not document items which are cosmetic in nature or would be apparent to the average person, pictures are placed in the report as a courtesy to help you understand the reason for the narrative.
