I know that you were not endorsing the inspector. I just found it kind of ironic that her 'deal killer' produced a convoluted mess of an inspection report. I see the same thing around here. A zoid brags about the skill of 'their' home inspector, they talk about the value of a good inspection and how 'their' inspector will find every little scratch and dent in the house. More often than not, 'their' inspector can't tell a heat pump from a gas furnace (or the inspector cant describe it and report it if he does know the difference). Tim I don't appreciate being called a zoid. I have no idea what Jim's sample report online looks like. I know he threw one together as a sample. While you feel that the format is a convoluted mess, I have never had a buyer think anything like that and we (buyers and myself) have always found the format easy to read. It's way better than the checkboxes many inspectors use which are totally worthless. Jim takes tons of pictures so repairs are easy to get figured out for sellers. You guys are free to talk about and debate about my post, but if you call me names again, I'll just delete the post and link.
