It's the occasional stumpers that keep the job interesting. :D The majority of my inspections are pretty dull, Karen, because the termites are falling out of the walls and any fool could find them.

Local custom and regulations can vary A LOT. When you're ready to start looking at houses, get a realtor to represent your interests. It won't cost you anything - the commission is the same whether there is one agent involved or two (they split when there are two.) Get your realtor to let you know what is done locally about inspections. Here in Hawaii it is customary for the seller to pay for whatever inspections are required. If it's not required, do consider paying for it out of your own pocket. You'll be making the biggest purchase of your life - not the right time to scrimp. You don't want to find out when it's too late that there are structural problems or termite problems or a roof that needs replacing at great expense. Professional inspections are your assurance that you're getting a sound structure and a good investment/value. Gally, I don’t know where you live. Local custom and regulations can vary A LOT.

It's also a big help to let me know what to look out for when I finally purchase my own place! This is all terribly interesting.
