WOODLANDS REAL ESTATE INSPECTIONS

INSPECTION POINTED OUT SOME RELATIVELY MINOR FLAWS, AND ADVISED ME TO GET A HEATING/AC INSPECTION SEPARATELY, WHICH I DID (FOR AN ADDITIONAL FEE FROM ANOTHER COMPANY.) INSPECTION BASICALLY INCLUDED CHECKING APPLIANCES FOR WORKING ORDER AND SOME BASIC ELECTRICAL CHECKS, SUCH AS GFCI, ETC... INSPECTOR FAILED TO NOTE THAT THE WATER HEATER (WHICH IS IN THE ATTIC) WAS 20 YRS. OLD, RUSTED OUT ON THE BOTTOM AND SHOULD BE REPLACED SOON. WHEN ASKED ABOUT IT, AFTER OTHER WORKMEN NOTED IT, HE SAID THAT SINCE IT WAS OPERATING, HE "COULD NOT COMMENT ON IT." HE ALSO FAILED TO NOTE SEVERAL OTHER THINGS FOUND BY SUBSEQUENT WORKMEN, INCLUDING PRIOR TREATMENT FOR WDI, SOME LIGHTING FIXTURE ISSUES AND VENTING ISSUES AROUND THE AC. SO, I DO NOT THINK THE INSPECTION WAS VERY THOROUGH AND WAS CERTAINLY NOT WORTH THE MONEY.
