Inspection standards: This inspection was completed in compliance with the professional standards of practice set forth by the American Society of Home inspectors (ASHI)
Purpose and Objective: This inspection is not technically exhaustive and can not be conclusive of every detail. The primary objective of this building inspection is to identify and report MATERIAL DEFECTS. Material Defects are defined as a specific issue with a system or component of a residential property that may have a significant, adverse impact on the value of the property, or that poses an unreasonable risk to people. The fact that a system or component is near, at or beyond the end of its normal useful life is not, in itself, a material defect. Normal wear and tear, maintenance typical defects or deficiencies are not defined as material defects. That is not to say that the home inspector will not report smaller defects such as cracked glass, broken outlets or leaky faucet washers but this is not the primary objective of an inspection. The home inspection is a first look attempt at ascertaining the general condition of a property. While it is the purpose of this inspection to discover and disclose those major items and concerns that may have an adverse impact on the value of this property and the health and safety of it's occupants, it is not an exhaustive list of defects or discrepancies and it certainly should not be used as a punch list of repairs. Repair list and cost estimates should be obtained from contractors. It is important to know that home inspectors are general practitioners with a limited amount of time and capabilities that is primarily focused on major issues in the home. Outside of normal testing and observation, Inspectors do not engage in troubleshooting or diagnostics and can not offer repair advice. home inspections are limited to visual observations only and does not include technically exhaustive or invasive analysis. However, this report attempts to identify and recommend conditions that should have further evaluation by experts prior to closing.
Typically included in any inspection report will be smaller issues, discrepancies, observations and suggestions. These may not be considered serious or significant problems but common to find on any home and is mostly provided as courtesy in an attempt to give you a more comprehensive understanding of the home.
It is the objective of the inspection and report to provide you the means by which you can progress in an informed manner thereby protecting yourself as much as possible before taking ownership of a property. This may mean obtaining further evaluation and repairs by an expert, purchase price adjustments, escrow of funds for repair, or withdrawing from a buyers purchase agreement altogether. If you are subject to an inspection contingency removal purchase addendum your conditions and disposition of removing that contingency should be clearly stated with details of expected outcomes. Furthermore, it should also be stated that any dispositions agreed to should be subjective to your re-inspection and final acceptance of satisfactory completion prior to closing of escrow.
Repairs - No matter how big or small, All repairs, corrections or replacements should be requested to be completed by licensed, qualified professionals with copies of their credentials, licensing, labor and product warranties and receipts of work. It is not recommend that you ask the seller to make the repairs unless they are qualified in the trades and you feel confident that they'll do a good quality job. It should be expected and required that all work be accompanied by any required city permits and inspections. Mostly all work except minor repairs require city permits and inspections. Finally, all repairs should be subject to your re-inspection, satisfaction and approval a couple days before closing.
Reinspection - Due to liability restrictions, reinspections are not the policy of Final Analysis home inspections. All repairs or corrections should be completed by qualified, licensed professional in their trade and should be accompanied by permits, work orders, receipts and warranties. If you feel a reinspection is necessary we can provide on a case by case basis and subject to schedule availability. The property inspection contingency removal addendum (PICRA) should be provided to us when the re-inspection is requested. All re-inspections are subject to a minimum fee of $200 and will be accompanied by an updated report.
NOTICE OF URGENCY: If you are buying this property, any discrepancies, concerns or issues revealed in this report should be resolved to your satisfaction before close of escrow and/or taking possession.
Older Home - This home is older than 50 years and the inspection is subjective to it's age. Older vintage homes can be inherently problematic which is somewhat normal and expected but you should be aware of the potential concerns. Because of their age, older homes can be more expensive to update, repair and maintain. It is common to have areas that no longer comply with current fire or building code. While this inspection makes every effort to point out safety issues or major deficiency's caused by age, but it does not inspect for current building code compliance. Any major repairs, updates or improvements that have been completed should be accompanied with the required city permits and inspections for approval. It is not unusual to see un-level flooring, door and window frames out of square and binding, cracked plaster caused by frame settlement, sagging or prior repairs but not necessarily indicative of structural failure.
Health and Environmental - Older homes may contain lead based paint, lead in water pipes or solder joints, asbestos, buried fuel oil tank or other conditions that are now considered hazardous. Special treatment and handling requirements of these materials during repairs can increase cost substantially. We report suspicious conditions but this inspection does not cover environmental health inspections, sampling, conditions, safety or laboratory testing.
Repair workmanship - Older homes have a higher propensity for amateur repairs, mixed materials old and new, temporary fixes or less than standard quality workmanship. Older homes are typically better built but would be subject to more maintenance, updates and alterations over the years. This inspection looks for items that are blatantly unsafe, structurally unsound, not functioning as designed or otherwise can have a negative impact on the current value of the property. It does not anticipate or project the maintenance cost of owning an old property.
Efficiency - Older homes may not be thermal efficient and may contain inefficient windows, HVAC system, poor or non-insulated walls, floors, ceilings.
Overview: A thorough home inspection was completed at the subject property in accordance with the American Society Home Inspections (ASHI) standards. The inspection reveals that this 1924 antique structure has normal wear and aging subjective to its age. Its structure and systems are generally sound and well built and maintained but there are some significant structural concerns that should be addressed among other typical defects and deficiencies. All observations made and items reported here should be carefully reviewed and considered for correction where needed as they are specific to this home and can have a significant impact on it's condition, safety and value.

Observed during inspection are granular erosion,, dried, brittle. Item's 1- 3(Pictures) The shingle covering is in need of
replacement and this should be taken into consideration. If replacement is delayed leaks may develop and the need for
patching and repairs will accelerate. Recommend further evaluation and replacement cost estimates be obtained from a qualified
roofing contractor. Note I: It is not uncommon for roofers to discover hidden rot damage or delamination of roof decking during
replacement and they will charge extra for this. Note II: all flashings, roof vents and soil vent boots should be replaced during a new
roof installation.

ATTIC VENTILATION
Comments and observations: Inspected |
General Statement - Attic ventilation plays an important role in reducing the heat loads in your attic, dissipating trapped moisture and contributing to the overall health of your attic/roof system. A poorly ventilated attic can reduce HVAC performance, shorten shingle life, and will promote rot of wood materials if moisture can't escape. Poor eave/soffit vents are the # reason for poor attic ventilation. Typically newer homes are better ventilated but older homes 20+ years, should be reviewed for improvement. It is important to remember that you need balanced intake vents along with outlet vents for good air flow. Installing just a power fan may not accomplish this. See more ventilation tips here Attic is ventilated |

Comments and observations: Inspected |
General Information - Positive grading and drainage are essential to the welfare of a property, and are usually the primary concern of architects and builders. Moisture can deteriorate most surfaces, cause soil movement and erosion, and undermine the structures foundation. The ideal site will be graded to conduct water away from a building. In fact, the ideal building will be surrounded by hard surfaces that slope way from the exterior walls, the interior floors will be several inches higher than the exterior grade, and the building will have gutters and downspouts and a system of drainage designed to prevent any moisture from threatening the foundation or the living space. Unfortunately, many properties do not meet this ideal, conditions on most can generally be improved, and all need to be monitored and maintained to prevent damage. Also, inspectors cannot see inside area drains and do not water-test them, but they can become blocked by debris, occluded by silt, and damaged by movement. Therefore, buyers should question sellers about the functionality of any such system, have it serviced by a specialist, or assume the risk of having a system that does not function well and the damage that might result |

(1) Defect - corrective action recommended - There are adverse water and moisture conditions in the crawlspace that if not corrected
can lead to structural damage of the framing and undermine the foundation. Observed heavy moisture movement through the brick
masonry that is causing breakdown of the mortar. Item 1(Picture) The interior crawlspace grade is lower than the exterior grade and
inducing reverse drainage of water into the crawlspace. The right side of crawlspace (as viewed from rear) has a significant downward
slope Item 2(Picture) which is causing water movement, flooding and erosion underneath the kitchen, study nook and stairway
area.Items 3- 6(Pictures) These conditions can lead structural failure if not corrected. Remedies may include sand fill for water
displacement and raise interior grade level, Correction of exterior perimeter drainage and eliminate water introduction which should
include gutter repairs, Installation of 100% coverage of vapor barrier.

(3) Deficiency, Repairs needed - Observed significant mortar erosion between the brick joints throughout the foundation masonry.
Items 9 -11(Pictures) Mortar is old and turning into sand and falling out of the mortar joints. The underlying cause is aging, exposure
and water/moisture that breaks down the mortar over time. All affected mortar joints will require re-pointing. This is involves removing
the old mortar to a certain depth and tuck pointing with new mortar. Some patching has been attempted but is spotty and temporary.
This process of re-pointing can be costly and should be taken into consideration. Recommend further evaluation of all foundation
masonry and repairs be completed as needed by a qualified masonry contractor.

Defect - The vapor barrier (plastic) on the crawlspace ground is missing. The dirt fill is wet and muddy and needs coverage. A vapor
barrier provides added protection to the floor system and building components from harmful moisture, dampness and evaporation that
can enter from ground. vapor barrier should be at least 6mil and provide 100% coverage. It should be trimmed and fit around columns,
overlapped at seams and pinned down to prevent movement or separation. A qualified should install vapor barrier after water
mitigation corrections are completed.

House - Observed termite shelter tube scaring in several floor joist and underneath the fireplace hearth. Items 1- 4(Pictures) No significant structural damage was noted but the worst damage underneath the fireplace hearth appears to have unfinished repairs. Defect - The header framing underneath the left side of the hearth remains unrepaired and some of the masonry support flooring is missing. Items 5 and 6 (Picture) It is recommend that these framing defects be further evaluated and repaired to completeness by a qualified contractor. Observed some powder post beetle (wood borers) pin holes in the floor joist near the fireplace hearth. Item 7(Picture) No significant structural damage was detected as a result of powder post beetles. Garage - Observed structural termite damage to the wall top plate at the center area of left garage wall.Item 8(Picture) Observed several termite sand tube scaring on several other wall studs and at the back wall of garage. Item's 11- 10(Picture) The top plate will require professional framing repairs. Other areas were there are sand tube scars appear sound and don't appear to need repairs. Treatment - It is recommended that the garage and house wood frame structures be treated for the elimination of termites, powder post beetles and other wood damaging organicism.

These are not load bearing girders and are only designed to support the floor and prevent sag or deflection. Though they may not
need load bearing footers and masonry piers, they should be installed using jacks or other support means that are designed for this
purpose. There is another floor support systems further in under the living room that is more appropriate. However never should there
be wood to earth contact as this is subject to water/termite damage.

PLUMBING DRAIN, WASTE AND VENT SYSTEMS
Comments and observations: Inspected |
![]() |
Disclosure : This home contains antiquated style galvanized steel and/or cast iron drains which is typical for the age of construction. However, as these pipes age, they have a tendency to constrict, drain slowly and back-up do to internal rusting and corrosion. These pipes also corrode from the inside-out. They can look good from the exterior but may have internal damage. Vertical cast iron waste pipes are that are concealed inside the walls are subject to stress cracks and may leak internally with no detection. Most pipes are hidden inside the walls or floors and can cause water damages that can go unnoticed for a long time. These older style pipes have a high probability of failure. Pipes that are inside the walls or buried in the earth, underneath vapor barrier, behind insulation can not be inspected. An internal video scope inspection or pressure testing is beyond the scope of a home inspection but can be completed by a plumber to determine the pipes internal condition. Some pipes can be reamed out a few times to restore adequate drainage but this is temporary and eventually the pipes will have to be replaced. These type of drains have a limited service life of approx 30 - 50 years. Leaks, failure and the need for replacement is inevitable and costly so this should be considered when buying a house. Replacing these type pipes in homes that are built on concrete slabs can be very expensive because it involved removal of flooring and concrete. Home with crawlspaces are usually accessible and much easier to replace. This home is on a crawlspace If you are concerned about these pipes you should have them further evaluated and cost estimates obtained from a licensed, qualified plumber. |

PLUMBING WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS AND FIXTURES
Comments and observations: Inspected |
![]() |
(1) Defect - Drain is slow or backing up in the upstairs hall bathroom tub (Item 1). Generally speaking, a fixture should drain at least as
quick as it fills to prevent overflow. Drain restrictions can be a simple trap clog or something more serious which can not be
determined by inspection alone. Recommend further evaluation and correction be completed by a qualified individual or contractor.

(2) Aging Water Heater - The water heater has reached or exceeded it's manufactured service life (Mfg. 2005) and are due for replacement. Statistically it is likely to fail which could leave you without hot water or worse, cause flooding and water damage. Water heaters should be replaced by a licensed plumbing contractor who should procure any required municipal permits and inspections as required by the city. If work is completed before a real estate closing/settlement it should be written subject to your satisfaction, reinspection and acceptance before closing. |
(3) General safety information about hot water temperatures - Hot water systems can be a scald
hazard and a source of disease. Water temperatures higher than 130 deg F. can be a scald hazard.
Water temperatures less than 120 deg. F. is considered ideal for the growth of harmful bacteria inside
the tank–such as Legionella. Monitor your hot water temperatures for safety.

Disclosure - Aluminum wire is installed on several, 120 VAC branch electrical circuits in the subject house. Item 1(Picture) These
single strand, branch circuit aluminum wires were used widely in houses during the mid 1960s and 1970s. According to the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission, problems associated with aluminum wiring can cause overheating at connections between
the wire and devices (switches and outlets) or at splices, which has resulted in fires.
A random sampling was done at several of the devices in an attempt to determine whether the circuits in this home have improper connections. There are improper connections in the service panel and may be at the outlets and switches in other areas of the house. Please note that only a qualified electrician that specializes in aluminum wiring should be consulted for a more technically exhaustive evaluation in determining what and were corrections are needed. All electrical connections should be checked and corrected using approved methods and materials.

POLARITY AND GROUNDING OF RECEPTACLES WITHIN 6 FEET OF INTERIOR PLUMBING FIXTURES, AND ALL RECEPTACLES IN GARAGE, CARPORT, EXTERIOR WALLS OF INSPECTED STRUCTURE
Comments and observations: Inspected |
![]() |
Safety disclosure This older home contains electrical receptacles and branch wiring that is ungrounded (Item 1). This is typical of
homes built prior to 1961-63 and not considered a defect but is disclosed as a safety concern. Outlets that have only two slots that
are the same size are neither polarized nor grounded. This leaves you with no protection against shocks from defective fixtures or
appliances using that outlet. local electric codes typically do not require that they be rewired so they're grounded. But upgrading is
worthwhile because it adds protection against electrical shock. Another option is to install GFCI devices which is an acceptable
alternative to grounding which will provide the same level of protection as grounding.

SMOKE DETECTORS
Comments and observations: Inspected |
![]() |
Safety - Install modern smoke detectors where needed for safety and test monthly. Read more about smoke detectors at US
consumer safety products commission. and at National Fire Protection Association.
The two most commonly recognized smoke detection technologies are ionization smoke detection and photoelectric smoke detection. Ionization smoke detection is generally more responsive to flaming fires. How they work: Ionization-type smoke alarms have a small amount of radioactive material between two electrically charged plates, which ionizes the air and causes current to flow between the plates. When smoke enters the chamber, it disrupts the flow of ions, thus reducing the flow of current and activating the alarm. Photoelectric smoke detection is generally more responsive to fires that begin with a long period of smoldering (called “smoldering fires”). |

(1) Aging A/C equipment - Both of the A/C systems are aging, rusting, deteriorating and have exceeded their service life expectancy (Mfg. 1987). Replacement in the near future is inevitable and should be planned and budgeted for. At a minimum you may consider having them cleaned, served and tested by a qualified HVAC contractor in addition to further protection by obtaining a whole house warranty during purchase. |
(2) Downstairs A/C Equipment Performance - The ambient air test was performed by using thermometers on the air handler of the
Downstairs Air conditioner to determine if the difference in temperatures of the supply and return air are between 14 degrees and 22
degrees which indicates that the unit is cooling as intended. The supply air temperature on your system read 50 degrees (Item 1),
and the return air temperature was 64 degrees (Item 2). D/T = 14 Degrees F. This indicates marginally satisfactory performance and
the system is functioning as designed.

(4) Disclosure - Older design - Both of the A/C system is designed for use with R22 refrigerant AKA "Freon®" which is now
considered obsolete. R22 has been replaced with R410a refrigerant; AKA "Puron®". As a homeowner or home buyer considering
a purchase, it’s important that you understand the difference so you can make the best decision for your system while
considering your purchase.
R-22 - Often referred to by a brand name like Freon® - As of 2010, R-22 was outlawed for use in new air conditioning systems - R-22 is a hydro-chlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) which contributes to ozone depletion - Is very expensive (cost prohibitive) and will increase as limited supplies are depleted. - R424A is an R22 alternative that can be used in older R22 systems that is ozone friendly but it is almost as expensive as R22 and not as efficient. R-410A - Often referred to by a brand name like Puron®. - Has been approved for use in new residential air conditioners. - Is a hydro-fluorocarbon (HFC) which does not contribute to ozone depletion. - Will become the new required standard for U.S. residential air conditioning systems in 2015 - Can not be used in R22 designed systems. - Is low in price. - R-410A offers greater efficiency, saving you in energy costs, and is much better for the environment. What this means - - We can not determine if the system actually uses R22 or the low efficiency substitute R424A which may reduce system performance. - R22 systems are typically cost prohibitive to repair because of the high cost of R22 or R424A. - Older R22 refrigerant line-set (copper suction and liquid pipes) may require replacement when changing to R410a. - You may be forced to replace the R22 system in 2015. The typical course of action is to replace the A/C systems with a modern R410 system. |

(5) Defect - Improper A/C condensate drain and or trap configuration (Items 5 and 6). The drain should contain a trap with a vent after the
trap. Improper configuration will reduce efficiency and performance of the system and can lead to clogged drain, back-ups and water
damage. Recommend proper repairs be completed by a qualified HVAC contractor using approved methods and materials. Urgency
for repair is at your discretion.
Note: Traps are designed to prevent external air from entering the AC system. Vents are designed to prevent a vacuum which can trap water in the pipe and lead to overflow. Vents should always be installed were the water leaves the trap. ![]() 7.2 Item 5(Picture)

VENTING SYSTEMS (Kitchens, baths and laundry)
Comments and observations: Inspected |
(1) SAFETY ADVISORY- Dryer ducts should be cleaned and inspected annually for proper performance. Dryer ducts are susceptible to
clogging and blockage due to lint and moisture build up. Restricted dryer vents will not only reduce drying efficiency, but worse they
can overheat and cause fires.
If your dryer used a vinyl or foil flex duct connector you should dispose of it and replace with flexible aluminum duct. Aluminum duct is the most efficient type, safest type to reduce fire hazards and the only type recommended by dryer manufactures and by most municipal building codes. Dryer vent installation guidelines See more about dryer duct safety here. |
|
![]() |
(2) Defect, Safety - Improper clothes dryer duct materials (flexible vinyl). Items 1 and 2(Pictures) Permanent dryer ducts must be made
of rigid, smooth-wall materials and secured with approved straps or hangers and vented to the exterior atmosphere with a reverse
airflow damper shroud. Flexible or semi-flexible dryer ducts are not permitted for use in permanent or non-serviceable areas. They
will clog and can overheat causing fires. They can deteriorate and introduce damaging moisture into structure. At best they will
significantly reduce dryer efficiency and performance. Recommend proper and professional repairs be completed by a qualified duct
cleaning and installation contractor.
