tacoma home inspector: How do you pick? - 09/27/08 10:19 PM
I've met many real estate agents that like to refer their favorite home inspector because they know exactly what he's going to say and that he's easy to contact, his delivery on what he finds (not an alarmist), what his report will look like, what kind of customer service skills he has, how his report is delivered, what benefits he offers your client, etc. How do you pick a home inspector?

tacoma home inspector: Avoid getting a "nit-picky" inspection report. Tip #6 - 09/11/08 01:16 AM

As mentioned in some of my other tips, conducive conditions for wood destroying organisms (carpenter ants, termites, some beetles and wood rot) are not only a requirement in WA state for inspectors to report on but most conditions are very easy to maintain. Take a quick peak in the crawl space and around the house near the foundation. Do you see any cellulose debris (any wood or wood byproduct like cardboard)? Whether it's small pieces of 2x4 left over from construction, firewood up against the siding or pieces of cardboard, they all can attract wood destroying organisms. Follow this very simple
