2 Client's Name: BUYER Property Address: 123 MAIN ST MIAMI, FL ID No: Date: 5/13/2014 DISCLAIMER THIS REPORT IS VALID FOR THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM INSPECTION DATE. A property inspection is a limited, non-invasive examination of the condition of a property often in connection with the sale of it. This is usually conducted by a home/building inspector who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The inspector prepares a written report, often using inspection software, and delivers it to a client, typically the buyer. The client then uses the knowledge gained to make informed decisions about their pending real estate purchase. The inspector describes the condition of the property at the time of inspection but does not guarantee future condition, efficiency, or life expectancy of systems or components. An inspector will check the roof, basement, heating system, water heater, air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, electrical, and many other aspects of buildings looking for improper building practices, those items that require extensive repairs, items that are general maintenance issues, as well as some fire and safety issues. However, it should also be noted that a home inspection is not technically exhaustive and does not imply that every defect will be discovered. POOL INSPECTION: POOL COMPONENTS AND POOL ARE NOT PART OF THIS REPORT - MAY YOU REQUIRE A POOL INSPECTION, WE RECOMMEND TO HIRE A CERTIFIED POOL OPERATOR (CPO). TERMITE INSPECTION: TERMITE INSPECTION IS NOT PART OF THIS INSPECTION FLORIDA LAW REQUIRES EVERY TERMITE INSPECTOR TO BE AN EMPLOYEE OF A LICENSED, INSURED AND CERTIFIED PEST CONTROL OPERATOR (CPCO). MAY YOU REQUIRE A TERMITE INSPECTION; WE RECOMMED TO HIRE LICENSED AND INSURED PROFESSIONALS. MOLD INSPECTION: MOLD SAMPLINGS ARE NOT PART OF THIS REPORT. THERE IS NO STATE OR FEDERAL STANDARD THAT DEFINES WHAT CONSTITUTES A HIGH OR LOW LEVEL OF MOLD. VISIT FOR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT RELEASED INFORMATION ABOUT MOLD. Ten Things You Should Know About Mold: 1. Potential health effects and symptoms associated with mold exposures include allergic reactions, asthma, and other respiratory complaints. 2. There is no practical way to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment; the way to control indoor mold growth is to control moisture. 3. If mold is a problem in your home or school, you must clean up the mold and eliminate sources of moisture. 4. Fix the source of the water problem or leak to prevent mold growth. 5. Reduce indoor humidity (to 30-60%) to decrease mold growth by: venting bathrooms, dryers, and other moisture-generating sources to the outside; using air conditioners and de-humidifiers; increasing ventilation; and using exhaust fans whenever cooking, dishwashing, and cleaning. 6. Clean and dry any damp or wet building materials and furnishings within hours to prevent mold growth. 7. Clean mold off hard surfaces with water and detergent, and dry completely. Absorbent materials such as ceiling tiles, that are moldy, may need to be replaced. 8. Prevent condensation: Reduce the potential for condensation on cold surfaces (i.e., windows, piping, exterior walls, roof, or floors) by adding insulation. 9. In areas where there is a perpetual moisture problem, do not install carpeting (i.e., by drinking fountains, by classroom sinks, or on concrete floors with leaks or frequent condensation). 10. Molds can be found almost anywhere; they can grow on virtually any substance, providing moisture is present. There are molds that can grow on wood, paper, carpet, and foods.
