1 Inspection No.: Inspector: Fred Roach Inspection Date: 4/8/15 Client: John & Jane Doe Address: 123 W Elm Street, Las Vegas, NV This report is fictitious. The images and issues noted are from multiple properties. The photos added at the end of the report are all from one property and do not include all of the notations from earlier in the report. It is just a sample of some issues we ve seen. It is designed to show potential clients and their agents the depth of our inspections. *** General Notes *** We attempt to give the client a comprehensive, clear-cut, unbiased view of the home. The purpose of this inspection is to identify 'MAJOR' problems associated with the property being purchased or sold. Minor items will also be mentioned as minor issues can develop into serious problems. Areas that may be of concern to us may not be of concern to the client and some items that may be of concern to the client may be considered minor to us. Therefore, it is advisable to read the entire report. Where repairs or replacements are suggested, we recommend licensed professionals in that particular field be called upon to make those repairs. We do not perform verification of repairs, therefore, we advise the client to obtain all paperwork from these professionals who will be happy to provide written statements concerning their work. We further recommend maintaining all paperwork on repairs for future reference. Mold / mildew / asbestos / Chinese drywall / Kitec, galvanic, yellow brass and Polybutylene plumbing testing or inspecting are beyond the scope of this inspection. Page 1

17 Exterior: PLATINUM AVENUE PROPERTIES HOME INSPECTIONS Our exterior evaluation is visual only. Our review does not take into consideration normal wear, cosmetic issues, code or manufacturer's specifications. Step Components Comments 101 Driveway Concrete - Common cracks noted 102 Walkways Concrete - Common cracks noted 103 Fences / Gates Iron Gates - Block Wall 104 Exterior Siding Stucco Common cracks noted - Stucco is a masonry surface material put on in layers over an expanded wire mesh that is fastened to the substrate. 105 Trim Serviceable: 106 Windows & Frames Satisfactory - The siding is in serviceable condition. Typical expansion cracks are apparent around doors and windows, or other wall openings. This is considered normal, and is attributed to normal expansion and contraction of the construction materials due to temperature and humidity changes, or shrinkages in the lumber as it dries in the desert sun over the years. No action is required, unless cosmetic repairs are wanted. Double-glazed insulated windows noted. Failed seals noted on multiple windows. Conditions such as temperature, humidity and lighting limit the ability of the inspector to review these windows for broken seals. For more information on the condition of these windows, consult the seller prior to closing. 107 Electrical Fixtures Serviceable GFCI serviceable 108 Gutters & None Downspouts 109 Hose bibs Serviceable pressure tested 110 Sprinkler System A timing device controls the sprinkler. Timing devices are beyond the scope of this inspection. Suggest client verify performance with seller prior to closing. 111 Bell / Chime Serviceable 112 Exterior Doors Serviceable 113 Chimney Serviceable 114 Lot/Grade Drainage Flat lot Lot is sloped improperly that may fail to drain moisture from the structure. Recommend re-grading by a licensed landscaper. Page 17

18 A swale is a low tract of land designed to manage water runoff and increase rainwater infiltration. 115 Gas Meter Located at west side 116 Exposed Foundation All slabs experience a certain amount of cracking due to shrinkage in the process of drying. Common cracks are normal for most concrete foundations. Newly noticed cracks should be monitored. Floor coverings prevent detection of settlement in all but the most severe cases. Our inspection is limited to a visual inspection. It is beyond the scope of our inspection to open up carpet or flooring to look underneath for foundation problems. 117 Water Meter No leaks noted at the water meter. Page 18

19 Patio: PLATINUM AVENUE PROPERTIES HOME INSPECTIONS We suggest periodically checking concrete, wood and other materials for signs of deterioration. We recommend periodically treating all wood and monitoring drainage around concrete slabs to help prevent deterioration. Step Components Comments 201 Cover Serviceable Aluminum + Vinyl 202 Enclosure None 203 Electrical Serviceable lighting & outlets 204 Windows/Screens None 205 Deck/Slab Concrete: common cracks noted 206 Stairs/Stoops None 207 Railing None 208 Patio Comments No additional comments Page 19

20 Roof: Our evaluation of the roof is to determine if portions are missing or deteriorating. Portions of underlayment and decking are hidden from view and cannot be evaluated by our visual inspection. Leaks are not always visible to the inspector nor can the inspector determine the watertight integrity of a roof by visual inspection. If such a review is desired, client should contact a qualified licensed roofing contractor. Concrete tile roofs are among the most expensive and durable of all roofs, and are warranted by the manufacturer to last for forty years or more, but are usually only guaranteed against leaks by the installer from three to five years. Like other pitched roofs, they are not designed to be waterproof, only water resistant, and are dependent on the integrity of the waterproof membrane beneath them, which cannot be seen without removing the tiles, but which can be split by movement, deteriorated through time, or by ultra-violet contamination. Significantly, although there is some leeway in installation specifications, the type and quality of membranes that are installed can vary from one installer to another, and leaks do occur. The majority of leaks result when a roof has not been well maintained or kept clean thus we recommend servicing them annually. Step Components 301 Roofing Type and Materials Comments Sloped roof, concrete tile: observed from ground with binoculars multiple slipped tiles noted. Recommend repairs by a licensed roofing contractor. 302 Number of layers One 303 Flashing Serviceable 304 Conditions This is a visual inspection only. No certification, warranty or guarantee is given as to the watertight integrity of the roof. Inspectors cannot determine the watertight integrity of roofs by a visual inspection nor can they predict future leaks or if the roof was installed according to the manufacturer's specifications. If such an inspection or certification of the roof is desired, the client should contact a qualified licensed roofer prior to closing. 305 Skylights None 306 Roof Penetrations Serviceable 307 Roof Comments The review was limited to do limited visibility due to close housing. A more thorough inspection can be completed by a licensed roofing contractor prior to closing. The inspector does not walk tile roofs as this could damage the tiles. Page 20

Attic: Water stains around roof penetrations such as chimneys, plumbing, vents, and heating vents are very common. Although it is difficult, every effort is made to determine if stains are active.

21 Attic: Water stains around roof penetrations such as chimneys, plumbing, vents, and heating vents are very common. Although it is difficult, every effort is made to determine if stains are active. Insulation in the attic is one of the best ways to improve the energy efficiency of a home. Our report measures insulation materials by thickness. Generally, the greater the thickness of the insulation, the greater the resistance is to heat loss. Truss Uplift Many homes today have been built with trusses which are prefabricated structural assemblies that hold up the roof and the top floor ceilings. Trusses are a series of triangles fastened together with gusset plates. The outside members of a truss are called chords while the inner pieces are known as webs. Truss uplift occurs when the top chord of the truss expands while the bottom chord contracts due to changes in humidity. Truss uplift usually becomes visible in a home during the winter when the bottom chords (the ceiling joist part of the truss), which are buried under ceiling insulation, stay warm and dry but the top chords are exposed to moisture. The resulting stress causes the truss to lift up at its center. When this happens, a crack can appear at the wall and or ceiling juncture. From a structural standpoint, truss uplift isn t a problem, but cosmetically, it can cause cracks and separations in the drywall. Many homeowners try to repair the cracks with drywall compound, only to have them reappear next year. Contractors can mask truss uplift by securing the ceiling drywall to the top of the interior walls and not the trusses for 18 inches away from the interior walls. As the drywall flexes, it stays fastened to the walls while the trusses lift above it. Decorative molding can also be installed where the walls meet the ceilings. The molding should be fastened to the ceilings, not to the walls so as the ceiling move up, so does the molding thereby hiding the gap. Page 21

22 Attic cont.: PLATINUM AVENUE PROPERTIES HOME INSPECTIONS Step Components Comments 401 Access We make every effort to fully inspect the entire attic including the trusses and all other systems within. Entering attics that are heavily insulated can cause damage to the insulation and attic framing. Attics with deep insulation cannot be safely entered due to limited visibility of the framing members upon which the inspector must walk. In such cases, the attic is only partially accessible which limits the review of the attic to the view from the hatch area only. 402 Framing Trusses Cracked truss noted. Recommend repairs by a licensed roofing contractor. 403 Sheathing Wafer-board 404 Ventilation Eave vents 405 Electrical Serviceable 406 HVAC Ducting Serviceable Duct tape noted recommend correct metal HVAC tape 407 Insulation Rolled in, blown in, 12 to Duct Support / Strapping Serviceable Not visible 409 Attic Comments No additional comments Page 22

23 Garage: PLATINUM AVENUE PROPERTIES HOME INSPECTIONS Attached garages should be separated from common walls of the house by a proper firewall and fire door. This is to keep the migration of any smoke or fire from entering the house in the event of a fire in the garage. A self closer on the fire door between the garage and the house is an additional safety precaution. It is recommended all garage doors be equipped with a safety reverse device to reverse the direction of the door if it should meet any resistance on the way down. This is important when children may be present. Some older homes may not have these safety reverse devices as they may not have been required when the home was built. If so, the buyer may wish to consider an upgrade.

25 Heating & Air Conditioning: Our evaluation of major systems is visual and functional provided power and/or fuel is supplied to the components. Items not listed here as well as things we cannot see, such as utilities, drains, and ducts inside walls, floors and underground are beyond the scope of this inspection. DISMANTLING AND/OR EXTENSIVE INSPECTION OF INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF ANY APPLIANCE, INCLUDING HEATERS, HEAT EXCHANGERS AND AIR CONDITIONERS IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THIS REPORT. THE LOCAL UTILITY COMPANY MAY CONDUCT SUCH AN INSPECTION UPON REQUEST. Our inspection is not a heat engineering or sufficiency review. We suggest the client ask the sellers/occupants if any areas of the home do not properly heat or cool. We also suggest the client obtain the maintenance history of the furnace as well as receipts for any repairs for which a warranty might apply. Clients are encouraged to purchase a home warranty plan since furnaces can require repair or replacement at any time. Modern furnaces are complicated appliances and should be treated with care. Regular cleaning or replacement of any and all filters within the HVAC system is vital to the health of the furnace and can improve the efficiency of attached central air conditioning. Step Components Comments 901 Heating Gas The furnace was tested using normal operating controls and appeared to function properly at time of the inspection. Due to inaccessibility of many of the components of this unit, the review is limited. Holes or cracks in the heat exchanger are not within the scope of this inspection as heat exchangers are not visible or accessible to the inspector. The unit was operated by the thermostat. 902 Conditions Recommend servicing/cleaning the filters on a regular basis to ensure proper operation and airflow. 903 Exhaust Venting Serviceable 904 Thermostat Honeywell 905 Ducts/Registers Efficiency and load calculations are beyond the scope of this inspection and expressly omitted from this report. If a detailed inspection is desired, a licensed heating contractor should be consulted prior to closing to ensure proper operation of the units. 906 Air Conditioning System Gas, one unit, Unit calls for 35-amp breaker at the main electrical panel breaker box, 50-amp breaker noted. Recommend the installation of a 35 amp breaker by a licensed electrician. 907 A/C Condition The air conditioner was activated to check the operation of Page 25

26 the motor and the compressor, both of which appear to be in serviceable condition at the time of the inspection. A detailed review of the cooling capacity of this unit is beyond the scope of this inspection. Temperature differential was within the 15 to 20 degrees of normal operating range at time of inspection. Page 26

Recommend installation of earthquake straps for safety Exhaust Venting Serviceable System 1009 Cross None Connections 1010 Plumbing The water meter was examined at the beginning and the end System of the inspection with no movement observed. Movement can Comments indicate possible leaks in the system or its components including toilets, sinks, icemakers, irrigation system valves, etc. Many sections of the pipes are not visible and the inspector cannot dismantle walls or flooring to check the entire system. If the client warrants a more detailed view of the plumbing system, we suggest further review by a qualified licensed plumber prior to closing. Page 27

28 Electrical System: Our electrical inspection meets the ASHI standards of practice and is done by sampling visibly accessible wiring and fixtures. Determining the actual capacity of the system requires load calculations which are not within the scope of this report. Underground circuits and concealed components of the system are not inspected. While age is one factor, many homes have electrical issues created by amateur electricians. We do not move belongings and do not examine every fixture, outlet, wiring run, etc., nor do we remove insulation or wall coverings. Covers are not removed, with the exception of the cover of the main electrical panel, when this can be done safely and without risking damage to the finish. Much of the wiring in the home is not visible and not reviewed. Once the current occupant's belongings have been removed, it's a good idea to check all outlets with a tester and to look inside cabinets, closets and other obstructed areas before moving in your own belongings. We use a standard electrical tester to check a sample of outlets. While the tester is generally reliable, it can be fooled by certain improper wiring practices which we cannot detect during a general home inspection. Because electrical defects are safety concerns, we advise the use of a qualified licensed electrician for cost estimates, repairs and upgrades, prior to close. Step Components 1101 Main Electrical Panel Comments The main electrical service is approximately 200 amps. The main disconnects were noted. The breakers are present to provide overload protection. The service entrance is underground. The system appears to be properly grounded. None 1102 Sub Panels /Location 1103 Smoke Detectors The smoke detectors that could be reached without a ladder tested serviceable but were not tested with smoke. Suggest testing all detectors on a monthly basis Electrical System Comments No additional comments Page 28

29 Kitchen: PLATINUM AVENUE PROPERTIES HOME INSPECTIONS The kitchen inspection is a combination of visual and operational testing. If necessary utilities are connected and operations, appliances are operated using normal operating controls. Calibrations to cooking systems or their efficiencies are not evaluated nor are life expectancies given. NOTE: Dishwashers can fail at any time due to their complexity. Our inspection is to determine if the system is free of leaks and excessive corrosion.
