Looking for an ASHI Certified Home Inspector is your best bet IMHO. They have to go through quite a bit just to obtain that certification, then they have to maintain ongoing, continuing education credits to keep it. Put your address, or ZIP Code into the search in the link I supplied below, and only choose the certified inspectors and not the associate ones. Once you have a name, or company name re-search them online to see what people are saying on Facebook, Angie's list, or Google reviews. One or two negative feedback's out of several glowing reviews can be taken with a grain of salt, but if you see a pattern. 😉

Call and speak to them. As you are getting a feel for them, one great question to ask as a leading one, is "how long does it normally take so you can plan for it at work." If they say a half an hour or 45 minutes, tell him you'll call him back. Mine take about three hours on average and I am diligently working the entire time. I know it's a lot of work, and you're very busy right now, but getting stuck with a roof needing a replacement, or an expensive structural issue that your home inspector missed really sucks. A lot of home inspectors make the mistake of working for the agents that refer them, instead of working for the clients best interest.

When we go for a walk in the woods, Banjo isn't necessarily fond of walking thru the creek(PTSD from the hotel pool, maybe!) but he does love to drink from it. Funny. Enjoy the day, fellas.

Enzo will go in, but only until he can't touch bottom anymore. He'll dunk himself all day, but no doggy paddling. We have a pool at the new house here, so I'm hoping that the dogs will want to get some swimming in.
