Another company throws a reactive plan for $100/year and an annual (upon renewal) visual inspection (the guy walks around the house with the long stick and lifts dirt underneath of mulch).

There's no visual mold as of yet...just moisture.

It took a little time to get used to the labels vs. folders, but now that I have, I like it much better as I am a very visual.

(Insert visual of cigar-chomping CEO teeing off at a country club here...)

Some counties have local websites alsoAny sites that have a fee I would not register, since this info can be located for free.Also use google maps and bing maps for the 3d visuals of areas.

and can't visualize what a property will look like after it's rehabbed.

Documentation required Every home inspector shall provide to the person on whose behalf a home or single-family dwelling is being inspected a written document specifying: (1) The scope of the inspection, including those structural elements, systems, and subsystems to be inspected; (2) That the inspection is a visual inspection; and (3) That the home inspector will notify in writing the person on whose behalf such inspection is being made of any defects noted during the inspection, along with any recommendation that certain experts be retained to determine the extent and corrective action necessary for such defects.HISTORY: Code 1981, § 8-3-331, enacted by Ga.

Like most here, I'm a very visual person; I want to have a tangible investment I can control.

If it takes 100 properties to visually inspect and find one to close on, and you might say $1000 per close, then maybe of 100 on the spreadsheet, 20 of them are provided that are worth inspecting, so $200, but since there's uncertainty and maybe some information lacking maybe $100?

Nice clean copy that is visually appealing for group 1 above.
