Note:
There will occasionally be limited observation of some related areas, systems, and components if they can adversely affect property or inspector includes as a courtesy, but conversely, inspector will not give opinion on makeshift/homemade/diy items which would be beyond what’s considered typical for a home in this region of Illinois.
PLEASE NOTE:
- THIS IS JUST THE GENERAL OUTLINE – YOU CAN OMIT ITEMS – FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME TO DISCUSS WHAT YOU NEED INSPECTED INCLUDING ANY SPECIAL REQUESTS ETC.
- TOWN HOME/CONDOMINIUM UNIT PROPERTY INSPECTIONS WILL NOT NECESARILY NEED SOME OF THE ASSOCIATION MANAGED ITEMS TO BE INCLUDED.
