      Introduction

      Building Insight into Your Future

      It is with great enthusiasm I welcome you into the diverse world of inspection and property ownership!

      You can never be 100% sure of what you are getting for the money, the best that any of us can do is, educate ourselves to reduce the risk involved. Even now after my combined 25 years of building, renovating and inspection, I am still seeing new unique issues. This photo e book is 13 in a series of 17 compiled to give you an easy way to see and understand some of the many issues that I discuss with home buyers every day. The beauty of seeing and learning in this format is that it is easy to remember and locate the best information this series.

      In an effort to not cloud or confuse topics in each of the photos, I have tried to maintain one topic at a time for discussion only. For instance; in a photo of a crawlspace, I may have a primary foundation issue with recommendations, there may be several other visible issues in the picture as well. If I were to discuss all of these items it would not add to the intended topic.

      Keep in mind that, this information is not meant to replace your home inspector or other professionals in the process of buying or investigating a property. This information is provided for individuals that want to get a heads up on issues in domestic housing and to add to their knowledge of the overall process. Building Codes varies in each country, state, province and municipality and need to be verified as correct for your location. In most cases building officials are quite helpful and with direct you to resources contact your city or community office before starting any project.

      Take note that, this information is in no way intended as a complete guide to the investigation of a property. It is intended
