I decided to lighten it up a little. Here is a short list of things to watch out for when working with a home inspector.
If your home inspector has any or all of these attributes you may need a new inspector:
- Uses a disposable camera.
- Always has a tooth pick hanging out of their mouth and calls everyone sport.
- Keeps hitting on your spouse.
- Takes the bus to the inspection site.
- Is also a loan officer, real estate agent and works at a fast food restaurant.
- Does not have insurance or see the need for it.
- Has fuzzy dice hanging from their mirror.
- Tests the plumbing by using the toilet and says, yup it flushed.
- Carries all their tools in a Swiss Army Knife.
- Business cards that are hand written.
- Lives in their truck.
- Accepts food stamps for payment.
- Plugs in a lamp to test the electrical wiring.
- Can be reached by leaving a message at the corner gas station.
- Tests the washer and dryer with the clothes they are wearing.
I am sure you can think of several others. Have fun with this list.
Being that loan officers have had a hard time lately, I decided to save them for last in this series. Stay tuned for that list.
