I've yet to find one who had any depth of knowledge on building codes beyond the extremely obvious, could spot building violations beyond something extremely glaringly obvious and none of them have x-ray vision.Jetted tubs with no access to pumps, lack of required dedicated electrical circuits, missing outlets, dangerous electrical issues such as lighting in wet areas, wire nutted connections  together and buried in a wall, miss-wired electrical panels, extension cords used for wiring buried in walls, bathroom exhaust fans that aren't vented anywhere... that's just a tiny list in one small category that are witnessed over and over again in flips that had home inspectors involved in the sale. 

There are a lot of niche neighborhoods and to someone that didn't grow up here and witness the trends it may be hard to decider between the ones transitioning up versus going downhill.My handle on Periscope is HomestarKevin if you'd like to join the discussion.

I currently reside in that home wit my family as planned. 

That's what I was leaning towards...have a text of an offer (unsolicited) and a witness.

I would start wit the small claims court in order to get a legal ruling in place.

The PM often has the records, and shows up as the principal witness (at least in CA, where I have experience).  

I'm glad he witnessed that deal come together because he never said another word about money to me after that day....Sean K       

We may be witnessing the largest financial collapse in centuries.

., make sure that either you bring a witness with you, or video-tape the delivery, with date of delivery - best do both, witness plus video taped.
