It should be understood that there are certain risks inherent in the purchase of property and a home inspection is inherently limited in its scope and depth. The information gained from home inspection conforming to the Massachusetts Home Inspector Standards of Practice may reduce some of those risks, but the home inspection is not intended to provide the client with protection from all of the risks involved.

Well, we have been spared until now. Today we showed a few homes but the conditions were less than ideal. The picture below is of the Bourne Bridge headed south over to Cape Cod.  I was on the way back to Falmouth from Sagamore Beach. This picture was taken at around 12:30 and the weather has continued to go down hill from that point. Many drivers were going very slow, because the sand trucks and plows hadn't treated very many of the road ways.  no, from my Main Street Office in Falmouth, the plows are occasionally going by, but it seems like they are waiting until the snow actually stops, which will be later this evening. I guess we have to have snow, and we have had some amazingly warm days for January. Tonight there will be some soup, some hot chocolate, some election results, and ma... 01/21/2012
