A thorough examination of the interior of the home is next. We use an extensive point checklist including a review of appliances, plumbing fixtures, attic, etc. Problems such as cracked sheetrock or broken windows, settling issues, items damaged by use or age such as flooring or interior trim work. Plumbing fixtures are checked for leaks or that are defective or that simply do not work.
