He honed his home inspection skills in over 5,000 houses before being discovered by HGTV for House Detective and DIY Network on Finders Fixers. Wally hosts The Home and Garden Show broadcast from WOKV in Jacksonville, Florida. Wally's unique blend of experience and the talent to tell the tale make for an enjoyable read. Who is this book for.....and what will you learn? Homebuyers will be able to eliminate surprise and unexpected expenses while feeling true peace of mind with their purchase decision. Home sellers can have their homes sold in less time and for closer to the asking price by inspecting the home at the time of listing. Realtors and real estate agents will learn how to reduce their liability, close more deals, and create an all referral business. Understand the difference and uses of the home inspection, home warranty, survey, and appraisal in reducing buyers risk, seller's liability and Realtors commission. How to prepare for the arrival of the home inspector at your house. What questions should you ask a home inspector before hiring them? What special training or tools should they have in addition to a certification and home inspection license? Is a simple home inspection checklist enough or is a more detailed home inspection report better? Should new homes be inspected, or should you trust that the city building inspector did enough when he said the house met the minimum building code? Do home inspectors inspect for building code violations? What should be done with the list of repairs for the property that the home inspector reports? How much should a home inspection Cost what services should be included beyond a basic home inspection checklist. What tools should you expect a trusted home inspection expert to bring to the property inspection? Can a home inspector do a complete home inspection without using an infrared camera? Could a real estate agent who refers a home inspector who does not use an infrared camera be considered negligent in making the referral? Is there a fundamental difference in how a home inspector should view a home in Jacksonville or St Augustine Florida compared to Denver, Dallas or your town? Is there a home inspection mindset that leads to peace of mind during and after the inspection of the house and property? Who is this book NOT for? This book is NOT a how to DO a home inspection checklist like those from Holmes on Holmes TV star Mike Holmes, but a how to choose a home inspector and how to USE a home inspection guide! It's also NOT a how to repair guide like Bob Vila or the This Old House books. And it is for sure NOT a technical home inspection book like Norman Becker has written for home inspectors. Truth be told, if you've enjoyed the description of Home Inspection Secrets of A Happy Home Inspector enough to read the all the way to the bottom of the description, you will enjoy reading the entire book!

  ashi home inspection training: What My Builder Didn't Tell Me Howard Ryan, 2020-03-20 A truly memorable time writing this book whilst in New York City attending industry meetings and symposiums. -- Howard Ryan Corporate greed and the slashing of sub-contracting tradie's costs, has caused a major issue in residential construction with the finishing trades and the proposed warranty expectations, which is leading them all to tribunal and court claims more so than ever before. By not understanding and/or acknowledging the wording in your contracts and scopes of works, will create unrealistic expectations and disputes where both parties make fools of themselves. Construction and Inspection planning is crucial to a successful and dispute free business. An example is, we don't tell a car manufacturer how to build their cars, they just sell them in their car yards so why should a consumer tell a builder or a home inspector, how to run their business? Forums and reality TV programmes are full of inconclusive statements based on what is being displayed, and the viewers are assuming this is the way it is to be done. IT IS NOT!
