Part 5: Relocation 2010

The Inspection
On Saturday, July 10, 2010 we had the home that we wanted to buy inspected. Certified home inspector Tom Daugherty from Countrywide Property Inspections helped us out.
We arrived at around 9:45 with the inspection scheduled to begin at 10:00. When we arrived the inspector was already there, patiently waiting in his car. He told us what he was going to do and how he was going to do it.
We began at 10 o’clock sharp. Interestingly the seller’s agent was NOT there. Tom helped the inspector and got to play around with some cool gadgets.
We went through the whole house, inspector Tom checking off things on his list. Tom was told to check every power outlet he sees, with a small device, that indicated if the outlet was properly installed.
The total inspection was brought to a close, when inspector Tom, Wolf, Petra, and our agent all sat down at the current owner’s dinner table. The inspector went over the inspection report, and what we would have to do.
In summary: Good house, nothing major. No proper heating and air in the master bedroom.
After the inspection we went to our agent’s office to write up a request for repairs. Basically, all we asked for was to get the heating and air in the master fixed.
