Image Description: (long drawn out snore...).  1980's-1990's Manufactured Home + Composite Panel of Any Type that Isn't Taken Care of + Belly Band with a 90 Degree Angle = Wood Decay... and usually lots of it. I am not against composite panel siding of any kind... I have Louisian Pacific siding ...

Image Description: though somewhat difficult to see with the picture, this patio is notably sloping towards this manufactured home.  This would be somewhat of an issue of it was a standard residential structure, but water can get under a manufactured home a little more easily.  As I came to find...

"Thank you for your inspection of the house.  Both Dan .. and I were impressed with your thoroughness and attention to detail (as well as explaining things in a way I could understand!).  I gave out one of your business cards (had to keep one for myself!) at our ... meeting last night.  If you co...

Image Description: these people knew how to have fun at the home inspection.  I joined in: this was the front page of their inspection report.  Apparently they decided that if the buyer won he would only have to pay a 0.00001% commission.  I can't remember who one.  :)~ -- Justin Nickelsen, Nick...

Image Description: in like manner to the missing fixture below... How could I fail to mention the animalistic aggression of foreclosed humanity: the broken doors, the holes in walls, and yes, the intentionally smashed stove top.  Lovely. Wouldn't their energy have been better spent by simply tak...

Image Description: his house, in Woodland, WA was inspected in 2005 and was built in the 1970's.  From the outside, I noticed that the roof had a pretty notable depression in it, so when I went into the attic I was looking extra close for signs of why that may have happend.  What you are seeing ...

Come September of this year, home inspector licensing comes to Washington State. Consumers and other real estate professionals wonder what this will do to the field of home inspection. I believe that, among other things, it will lead to a caste system for home inspectors in Washington State. My ...

Image Description: This is a house that I inspected on February 4, 2009 in Portland Oregon.  You will note that the gutters are not sloping properly towards the downspouts (i.e., there is a "negative flow").  Water was pooling in this area, and you could tell that in heavier rains the water come...
