One thing that I do is to always be at the Inspection sight at less an hour, before I'm to meet my clients there.
Our subject for this part of the inspection of the home, is the Exterior Trim of the home.
First Time Home Buyers place accompany me, to take a walk around the home so I can show you what I've found going on with the exterior trim.
As you can see in the two above photos, the paint sure has failed and the trim has rotted.
The wood trim and the window frame on many of the windows is deteriorated and water damaged at multiple locations around the home. This is due to the paint has failed on all exterior trim of the home. Water damage and rot sure is and was visible in many areas of this home.
This deterioration will only worsen if its not corrected.
The exterior wood trim should be examined by a qualified contractor and repaired/replaced as needed prior to anyone repainting the exterior trim of the home.
This is one of the reasons why its so very important for home owners to keep up on the maintenance of their home.

Same thing can happen with stucco if it isn't properly maintained (and then it can get really ugly). It is amazing how much of an expensive fix can be saved by some simple maintenance!
You've been working hard on AR today, Dale! I'm going to have to get to all of your comments in the morning!
