PROPERTY INSPECTION REPORT Prepared For: Concerning: Matt & Paislee Rodriguez 14007 Big Tree Dr (Name of Client) (Address or Other Identification of Inspected Property) By: James Price, TREC License # 20477 (Name and License Number of Inspector) (Name, License Number of Sponsoring Inspector) 05/19/2015 (Date) PURPOSE, LIMITATIONS AND INSPECTOR / CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES This property inspection report may include an inspection agreement (contract), addenda, and other information related to property conditions. If any item or comment is unclear, you should ask the inspector to clarify the findings. It is important that you carefully read ALL of this information. This inspection is subject to the rules ("Rules") of the Texas Real Estate Commission ("TREC"), which can be found at www.trec.texas.gov. The TREC Standards of Practice (Sections 535.227-535.233 of the Rules) are the minimum standards for inspections by TREC-licensed inspectors. An inspection addresses only those components and conditions that are present, visible, and accessible at the time of the inspection. While there may be other parts, components or systems present, only those items specifically noted as being inspected were inspected. The inspector is NOT required to turn on decommissioned equipment, systems, utility services or apply an open flame or light a pilor to operate any appliance. The inspector is NOT required to climb over obstacles, move furnishings or stored items. the inspection report may address issues that are code-based or may refer to a particular code; however, this is NOT a code compliance inspection and does NOT verify compliance with manufacturer's installation instructions. The inspection does NOT imply insurability or warrantability of the structure or its components. Although some safety issues may be addressed in this report, this inspection is NOT a safety/code inspection, and the inspector is NOT required to identify all potential hazards. In this report, the inspector shall indicate, by checking the appropriate boxes on the form, whether each item was inspected, not inspected, not present or deficient and explain the findings in the corresponding section in the body of the report form. The inspector must check the Deficient (D) box if a condition exists that adversely and materially affects the performance of a system or component or constitutes a hazard to life, limb or property as specified by the TREC Standards of Practice. General deficiencies include inoperability, material distress, water penetration, damage, deterioration, missing components, and unsuitable installation. Comments may be provided by the inspector whether or not an item is deemed deficient. The inspector is not required to prioritize or emphasize the importance of one deficiency over another. Some items reported may be considered life-safety upgrades to the property. For more information, refer to Texas Real Estate Consumer Notice Concerning Recognized Hazards or Deficiencies below. THIS PROPERTY INSPECTION IS NOT A TECHNICALLY EHAUSTIVE INSPECTION OF THE STRUCTURE, SYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS. The inspection may not reveal all deficiencies. A real estate inspection helps to reduce some of the risk involved in purchasing a home, but it cannot eliminate these risks, nor can the inspection anticipate future events or changes in performance due to changes in use or occupancy. It is recommended that you obtain as much information as is available about this property, including any seller's disclosures, previous inspection reports, engineering reports, building/remodeling permits, and reports performed for or by relocation companies, municipal inspection departments, lenders, insurers, and appraisers. You should also attempt to determine whether repairs, renovation, remodeling, additions, or other such activities have taken place at this property. It is not the inspector's responsibility to confirm that information obtained from these sources is complete or accurate or that this inspection is consistent with the opinions expressed in previous or future reports. ITEMS IDENTIFIED IN THE REPORT DO NOT OBLIGATE ANY PARTY TO MAKE REPAIRS OR TAKE OTHER ACTIONS, NOR IS THE PURCHASER REQUIRED TO REQUEST THAT THE SELLER TAKE ANY ACTION. When a deficiency is reported, it is the client's responsibility to obtain further evaluations and/or cost estimates from qualified service professionals. Any such follow-up should take place prior to the expiration of any time limitations such as option periods. Promulgated by the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) P.O. Box 12188, Austin, Tx 78711-2188 (512) 936-3000 (http://www.trec.texas.gov). REI 7-4 (04/2014) Page 1 100114

14007 Big Tree Dr San Antonio, T 78247 Evaluations by qualified tradesmen may lead to the discovery of additional deficiencies which may involve additional repair costs. Failure to address deficiencies or comments noted in this report may lead to further damage of the structure or systems and add to the original repair costs. The inspector is not required to provide follow-up services to verify that proper repairs have been made. Property conditions change with time and use. For example, mechanical devices can fail at any time, plumbing gaskets and seals may crack if the appliance or plumbing fixture is not used often, roof leaks can occur at any time regardless of the apparent condition of the roof, and the performance of the structure and the systems may change due to changes in use or occupancy, effects of weather, etc. These changes or repairs made to the structure after the inspection may render information contained herein obsolete or invalid. This report is provided for the specific benefit of the client named above and is based on observations at the time of the inspection. If you did not hire the inspector yourself, reliance on this report may provide incomplete or outdated information. Repairs, professional opinions or additional inspection reports may affect the meaning of the information in this report. It is recommended that you hire a licensed inspector to perform an inspection to meet your specific needs and to provide you with current information concerning this property. TEAS REAL ESTATE CONSUMER NOTICE CONCERNING HAZARDS OR DEFICIENCES Each year, Texans sustain property damage and are injured by accidents in the home. While some accidents may not be avoidable, many other accidents, injuries, and deaths may be avoided through the identification and repair of certain hazardous conditions. Examples of such hazards include: - malfunctioning, improperly installed, or missing ground fault circuit protection (GFCI) devices for electrical receptacles in garages, bathrooms, kitchens, and exterior areas; - malfunctioning arc fault protection (AFCI) devices; - ordinary glass in locations where modern construction techniques call for safety glass; - malfunctioning or lack of fire safety features such as smoke alarms, fire-rated doors in certain locations, and functional emergency escape and rescue openings in bedrooms; - malfunctioning carbon monoxide alarms; - excessive spacing between balusters on stairways and porches; - improperly installed appliances; - improperly installed or defective safety devices; and - lack of electrical bonding and grounding. To ensure that consumers are informed of hazards such as these, the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) has adopted Standards of Practice requiring licensed inspectors to report these conditions as "Deficient" when performing an inspection for a buyer or seller, if they can be reasonably determined. These conditions may not have violated building codes or common practices at the time of the construction of the home, or they may have been "grandfathered" because they were present prior to the adoption of codes prohibiting such conditions. While the TREC Standards of Practice do not require inspectors to perform a code compliance inspection, TREC considers the potential for injury or property loss from the hazards addressed in the Standards of Practice to be significant enough to warrant this notice. Contract forms developed by TREC for use by its real estate licensees also inform the buyer of the right to have the home inspected and can provide an option clause permitting the buyer to terminate the contract within a specified time. Neither the Standards of Practice nor the TREC contract forms require a seller to remedy conditions revealed by an inspection. The decision to correct a hazard or any deficiency identified in an inspection report is left to the parties to the contract for the sale or purchase of the home. INFORMATION INCLUDED UNDER "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PROVIDED BY INSPECTOR", OR PROVIDED AS AN ATTACHMENT WITH THE STANDARD FORM, IS NOT REQUIRED BY THE COMMISSION AND MAY CONTAIN CONTRACTUAL TERMS BETWEEN THE INSPECTOR AND YOU, AS THE CLIENT. THE COMMISSION DOES NOT REGULATE CONTRACTUAL TERMS BETWEEN PARTIES. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE EFFECT OF ANY CONTRACTUAL TERM CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION OR ANY ATTACHMENTS, CONSULT AN ATTORNEY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PROVIDED BY INSPECTOR Page 2 of 10

14007 Big Tree Dr San Antonio, T 78247 I. STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS A. Foundations Type of Foundation(s): Slab Slab Foundation Level/Gradation: Satisfactory In my opinion, the foundation appears to be providing adequate support for the structure at the time of this inspection. I did not observe any apparent evidence that would indicate the presence of adverse performance or significant deficiencies in the foundation. The interior and exterior stress indicators showed little effect of adverse performance and I perceive the foundation to contain no significant unlevelness after walking the first level floors. See Figure(s) 1 B. Grading and Drainage Structure Perimeter Exterior Site Drainage: Maintenance A portion of the site grading on the front side of the structure is in need of attention in order to provide the desired site drainage. There are areas dug out that can cause water to pond up against the home. C. Roof Covering Materials Type(s) of Roof Covering: Composition Shingles Viewed From: Top of the roof Roof Roof Cover Material(s): Composition shingle A few issues with the roof: 1.I noted shingles are worn and not properly fastened after random sampling. 2. I noted signs of repair around the chimney. 3. The shingles on top of the roof show signs of distress; should be further evaluated by a qualified specialist. 4. I noted debris buildup around the roof. D. Roof Structure and Attics Viewed From: Inside the attic Approximate Average Depth of Insulation: 6" Attic Access: Attention The size of the attic access opening is not adequate. The inspector was unable to gain access to the attic for inspection. Modification of the existing access area or installation of a new access opening is recommended in order for the inspector to inspect the attic area. Attic Ventilation: Satisfactory The inspector has been able to observe what appears to be satisfactory passive ventilation in the attic area. Attic Inaccessible Areas: Yes There are inaccessible structure cavities in the attic, as well as areas of the attic which are inaccessible due to reduced clearance or obstruction by structural members and/or mechanical apparatus. Attic Attic Evaluated By: Entrance The inspector entered the attic and inspected the accessible areas. Attic Framing condition: Functional E. Walls (Interior and Exterior) Exterior Structure Flat Surface Material(s): Brick/wood Vegetation should be cut back away from the home at least 12" to avoid premature wear on the brick veneer.

Ceilings and Floors Attached Garage Floor/Foundation: Not visible The entire floor of the garage is concealed, and therefore is not visible to inspection. A hidden functional condition may be present. Recommend check with the seller in this regard. Attached Garage Fire Wall/Ceiling Board: Attention The common wall/ceiling between the house and the garage appears to be a fire wall/ceiling. The fire ceiling has been cut through to provide access to the garage attic area. The existing conditions are a compromise to the safety afforded by the fire wall system. Recommend installation of a fire rated covering at the access way. Recommend further evaluation and repair by a qualified specialist.

Attached Garage Door(s), Garage - Building: Maintenance 1.The garage door has a dog door inside the door, this door separates the garage from the building and should be a 45 minute fire rated solid core door. However, this dog door inside door used as the garage door does not provide a sufficient fire rating. 2. The door frame is cracked. 3. The weather-stripping is worn and in need of replacement. Living Room / Main Hall Doors/Closet Doors: Satisfactory Other Ext. Entry Doors Locations: Living room The sliding glass door failed to lock properly at the time of inspection. Other Ext. Entry Doors Sliding Door Glass/Safety: Satisfactory It appears that the glass of the exterior sliding door is properly identified as safety glass. Main Entry Door Correct Application: Yes The main entry door has a dead-bolt lock on both sides. Recommend having a thumb-lock on the inside. Main Entry Door Door Fit: Functional Main Entry Door Weather Strip: Functional Main Entry Door Finish: Functional Main Entry Door Storm/Screen/Doors: None Other Room(s) Door(s)/Closet(s): Attention The hall closet door is missing proper hardware (striker plate missing).

14007 Big Tree Dr San Antonio, T 78247 H. Windows Bed Room Window(s): Attention 1.The window in the front bedroom 1 does not stay up on its own; adjustment to the sash cords may be needed so the window can stay up on its own. 2.I noted a wasp nest in the master bedroom window. Exterior Structure Window Glass: Satisfactory Living Room / Main Hall Window(s): Satisfactory Structure Windows, Latches/Locks: Maintenance I noted missing window screens throughout the home. I. Stairways (Interior and Exterior) J. Fireplaces and Chimneys Fire Place/Wood Stove Solid Fuel/Gas Logs/Gas Appliance: Attention There is a crack in the refractory panel at the rear of the firebox. Small cracks are generally not an issue; however heat from the fire may cause the crack to spread when the fireplace is in use. A large enough crack may require replacement of the panel. Recommend further evaluation by a qualified fireplace specialist. 2.The fireplace is dirty and has excess soot build up, recommend cleaning by a qualified specialist. Fire Place/Wood Stove Location: Living Room K. Porches, Balconies, Decks, and Carports Site Paving and Patios Driveway(s)/Parking: Functional Site Paving and Patios Patios: Functional Site Paving and Patios Walkways: Maintenance There are cracks and settled areas that may present a trip hazard. Repair is recommended for preventive safety considerations. Small cracks can be filled with foam cord and caulking to help prevent moisture penetration that can lead to further settlement and deterioration. Differential settlement areas that present a trip hazard should be repaired or the surface replaced. L. Other II. ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS A. Service Entrance and Panels Electrical Service Panel/Sub Panel Location(s): Other The main electrical panel is on the exterior wall. There is a distribution (sub) panel inside the garage. Electrical Service Service Size (Amps) / (Volts): Not visible Electrical Service Over Current Devices: FPE/Zinsco Panels The electrical panel is a Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) brand panel. This is an obsolete panel and replacement is recommended. Many electricians advise the immediate replacement of FPE panels. Recommend contacting a licensed electrician regarding the functionality and safety of these panels. Page 5 of 10

14007 Big Tree Dr San Antonio, T 78247 Electrical Service Service to Panel: Aluminum See Figure(s) 3 Electrical Service Breaker Configuration: Attention 1.I noted double tapping at the neutral bus bar in the electrical panel. 2. The panel is not properly grounded outside. 3. There is a missing knockout cover for the distribution panel in the garage. See Figure(s) 4 See Figure(s) 5 Recommend a licensed electrician further evaluate and make proper repairs. Electrical Service Wire-Over Current Compatibility: Satisfactory Utility Services Electrical Services: Underground Utility Services Overhead Service Lines: N/A B. Branch Circuits - Connected Devices and Fixtures Type of Wiring: Copper Electrical Service Panel to Structure: Copper/Aluminum The electrical wiring from the panel to the structure consists of copper and aluminum wiring. The visible sections of the wiring were inspected and appeared to be functional, however there are four aluminum multi-strand wire conductors that have not been dipped in anti-oxidant paste. Proper torque on conductor wires and anti-oxidant paste are recommended on aluminum wiring to prevent loose breaker connections that can result in overheating, and arcing. Recommend further evaluation and repair by a licensed electrician. Electrical Service Receptacle Ground Verify: Satisfactory The inspector has checked the accessible grounded 110 volt electrical outlets throughout the structure and did not find any that were incorrectly grounded. NOTE: This is not a warranty and an undiscovered condition may exist. Electrical Service G.F.C.I. Protection: Yes Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) protection was noted to the exterior, garage, and bathroom outlets. For safety reasons, GFCI outlets are located in areas where there is a higher potential danger of electrical shock. Modern building practices are such that GFCI outlets are placed in kitchens as well. The age of the structure predates the kitchen requirement and there is no GFCI protection in the kitchen. Recommend that some consideration be given to upgrading the kitchen outlets to provide GFCI protection in this area. Also testing the GFCI outlets on a monthly basis is recommended to ensure that they are functioning and providing the intended service Electrical Service Outlets, Switches, Junction Boxes, Light: Maintenance The inspector noted a few issues that are in need of attention: 1. There are multiple light bulbs throughout the structure that did not respond to the on/off switch. Recommend replacement/repair of the lights for desired function. 2.There are missing smoke detectors in the bedrooms. 3. I noted a cracked outlet cover in the dining room. Recommend all electrical repairs be made by a licensed electrician. Electrical Service Wire Method: Romex--3 wire Electrical Service Arc Fault Breakers (A.F.C.I.): Not Present There are no Arc fault protectors located in the electrical panel.

Recommend repair by a licensed plumber. Water Heater Safety Valve: Present The water heater safety valves were not tested as valves may be prone to leaking once tested. Water Heater Discharge Pipe: Attention The overflow pipe on the water heater appears to be an incorrect installation. The pipe is made of improper flex copper. Recommend replacing the line with rigid pipe for desired function. Recommend further evaluation and repair by a qualified licensed plumber. Water Heater Installation: Maintenance The water heater has a few issues: 1. The water heater does not have a secondary drain pan located under the water heater to catch any leaks. 2.The water heater does not have a proper drain line for the pan under the water heater. Recommend adding a drain line for desired function. 4. The flue for the water heater is not correctly installed and is not aligning properly to vent out the exhaust.
