The Perspective of the Inspector
From Jardy Inspections
Why does it seem like home inspectors are comparing resale homes to a new or perfect home? Because in some ways we are. Newer homes may have important safety upgrades or other improvements that can be easily retrofitted in the home under consideration. The home inspector should also, however, be providing perspective to the home buyer. What I mean is that the buyer needs to be made acutely aware of safety concerns and high cost repairs. What I mean is that the buyer needs to be made acutely aware of safety concerns and high cost repairs. Wear-and-tear items, while also important to disclose, should be explained as such. Ultimately a good home inspector will compare a home to its peers regarding wear-and-tear items and provide ample disclosure of the safety and high cost items. By the way, in the home inspection industry, high cost generally means in excess of $500 to repair. Click here for the full article.

I prefer Android & Open Source over anything Apple
Basically, I'm just saying I'm somewhat of a techy guy. The title statement above is true though. I do put together this newsletter myself as well as my website. I prefer practical and useful over aesthetics which is probably why my productions, especially website are not "fluffy". Some of the most useful things I use: Google contacts which I sync with my HTC (I'm due for an upgrade), Google Voice and back up my texts, contacts, emails; I also use Photoshop, Windows Movie Maker, Skype, etc. Some Apps I recommend: CamCard, Dropbox, Evernote, Karl's Mortgage Calculator, Mint.com, PicsArt, Scanlife, Shazam, SMS Backup+, Trapster. I am not a gamer though -- enough distractions as it is. Now you know.
