A: Some of the most common issues that are related to home inspections are the following:
Roof problems. Beware exposed/deteriorating surfaces, improper installation, and leaks. Roof replacement can be quite expensive.
Drainage problems. Water is one of the worst enemies of a home. If it isn't properly drained away, it can pool around the foundation. Ineffective gutters and downspouts are commonly to blame.
Faulty electrical wiring. Improper wiring can be a fire hazard. Common electrical issues found in homes of all ages are exposed wires and open splice wires that are most frequent in attics, crawl spaces and the garage.
Structural issues.
