| RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A THOROUGH INSPECTION PRICE: Usually an inspector goes by the Appraisal districts listed square footage and the number of items outside the scope of the in normal inspection. (Texas Real Estate Commission: Standards of Practice). LENGTH of TIME: As a general rule of thumb the inspection is quoted at 1hr for every 1000 sq/ft. Present at Inspection: Here at A&K Real Estate Services, Inc. We generally either want the Buyer or Buyer's Agent Present; however this is not required. Utilities: All utilities such as gas, electric, water MUST be working at the time of inspection. (Additional fees apply if inspector is requested to return to complete inspection or evaluation) Replace all burned out light bulbs Test and replace all smoke detector batteries as needed Change all filters for the heating and air conditioning system Have keys available for all doors and locks. Remove all locks from gates and service panels so they can be accessed Repair all minor known defects; loose/ damaged gutters, leaking faucets, damaged fixtures and hardware. Remove all stored items and debris from around the foundation. Move all items from around access panels including; electric panels, plumbing access panels in the closets and the crawl space access opening. We all love our pets but it would be best if they visited a friend or are put away during the inspection The pool and hot tub equipment should be operational and accessible. Provide a copy of all recent receipts for repairs and maintenance done to the house such as; roof, heating and air conditioning system, and major appliances Trim all trees and bushes away from the house Remember that all stored items in attics, closets and craw spaces will limit the inspectors view, you may want to remove them During the inspection the inspector will be operating almost everything in the house and garage |

| Myth Buster.... Do you think Newly built homes need inspections done? The answer is YES!!! There is a common misconception that new homes have no need for an inspection because they are new. Builder's often have their own inspectors to inspect when the project is complete. Having your own independent inspection give you more fire power and peace of mind when dealing with the Construction company or Builder. |
| The Real Answer is...... Even New homes need inspections. Just because a home is new doesn't mean the builder's sub contractor didn't cut corners or use yesterday's standards. The builder's inspector is often there after the fact and goes through a punch list. New or Used homes need an inspection. It never hurts to have a second or third pair of eyes!!!!! |
| Building codes change every 3 years, county codes differ from city codes, The inspector you hire should be able to identify with the newer and older codes and allow for a thorough examination of the home and ask the seller or builder's the how, when, why or what's of the home or building. |
