Home Certificate of occupancy approved. Really.
Here is a home built in 2005.
The mechanical inspector was there and approved everything in the home. Then the home was issued a certificate of occupancy.
This certificate of occupancy cannot be issued if there is anything that needs to be finished and or repaired to code.
At a home inspection yesterday I was in the attic of this 2005 home.
I entered the attic through the access door in the Master bedroom closet.
As soon as I entered the attic. This is what I saw.
Of course it was a little more hidden than what you see. I did open up the insulation for a better picture.
I noticed this as soon as I entered the attic.
Why did'nt the Mechanical inspector see this and have the repairs made before issuing a C of O?
The really sad part is, there are three of these vents in the attic, none are hooked up and all three are the same.
I really don't think the State inspector ever entered the attic for the final inspection.
Why are we even paying an inspector that works for the state if they are not doing their job correctly?
Have a great day everyone.
