Virtually all real estate has problems, regardless of age or usage. It is not our purpose to compile a complete, definitive, or exhaustive list of items that need repair, but to document the general condition of the residence and to note any visible major defects (please read the Home Inspection Agreement for the definition of major defects).
Your home inspection report is not a comprehensive document about the structure and should not be relied upon as such. Cosmetic considerations (paint, wall coverings, carpeting, window coverings, etc.) and minor flaws are not within the scope of the inspection. Although some minor and cosmetic flaws might be noted in this report, the minor and cosmetic flaws noted should not be considered a complete, definitive, or exhaustive list and should not be relied upon as such. Routine maintenance and safety items are not within the scope of this inspection unless they otherwise constitute visible major defects as defined in the Home Inspection Agreement. This report does not include all maintenance items and should not be relied upon for such items.

All conditions are reported as they existed at the time of the inspection by what is essentially a visual inspection. Items, components, or areas that were not visible due to varying conditions (such as furnishings, wall hangings, storage, etc.) or were not accessible were not inspected. Major defects, safety concerns, and maintenance concerns are listed for your convenience in Section 4 – Areas of Concern. If something is not listed in Section 4 – Areas of Concern, the implication is that no major defects, safety concerns, or maintenance concerns were noted at the time of the inspection. For example, if there is nothing about smoke alarms in Section 4 – Areas of Concern, then the implication is that smoke alarms were present, since smoke alarms not being present would be of concern.
The information contained in this report shall be considered unreliable beyond the date of the inspection due to changing conditions.
