ABOUT YOUR INSPECTION

In order for you to receive the full value of this inspection, please read the information we have provided.
ALL ITEMS IN RED PRINT ARE OF IMMEDIATE CONCERN TO THIS STRUCTURE AND SHOULD BE FURTHER
EVALUATED BEFORE THE CLOSE IN ESCROW. HOWEVER, THE ENTIRE REPORT MUST BE READ FOR FULL
DISCLOSURE
During this inspection your inspector did not dismantle equipment, dismantle any structural items, apply
stress or destructive testing. Areas that are hidden and/or not readily visible are not covered in this report.
Our report is not a guarantee or warranty on the condition of your property or its contents. This report
provides an unbiased visual inspection only. The Elite Group inspections are performed with consideration
given to the age of the structure. Defects will be indicated and marked as such regardless if the condition is
normal for the age. These defects should be inspected by the appropriate licensed contractor. Opinions vary
from person to person and this report is the opinion of the inspector and must be considered as such. Your
report does not include all items covered in the REAL ESTATE TRANSFER DISCLOSURE FORM.
An attorney and/or real estate broker should be consulted on additional items not included in this report.
Mold spores, asbestos , formaldehyde, radon, lead paint, Chinese drywall, poria and all other toxic items of
concern cannot be identified as toxic and/or dangerous with this inspection report. Your inspector is not
certified to identify any of these toxic or dangerous items. It's recommended the client have the property
tested by a certified expert in these areas, in all cases.
PHOTO DOCUMENTATION
Your report also includes digitally imaged photos of certain problem areas (should they exist). Also included
are pictures (General Views) to establish location and identification.
Please carefully read your entire Inspection Report. Call your inspector after you have reviewed your report,
so we can go over any questions you may have. Remember, when the inspection is completed and the report
is delivered, we are still available to you for any questions you may have, throughout the entire closing
process. Properties being inspected do not "Pass" or "Fail. - The following report is based on an inspection
of the visible portion of the structure; inspection may be limited by vegetation and possessions. Depending
upon the age of the property, some items like GFCI outlets may not be installed; this report will focus on
safety and function, not current code. This report identifies specific non-code, non-cosmetic concerns that
the inspector feels may need further investigation or repair.
For your safety and liability purposes, we recommend that licensed contractors evaluate and repair any and
all concerns and defects noted in the report.
Note that this report is a snapshot in time. We recommend that you or your representative carry out a final
walk-through inspection immediately before closing to check the condition of the property, using this
report as a guide. Conditions change during escrow time periods.
THIS REPORT IS NON-TRANSFERABLE TO ANOTHER PARTY, NO EXCEPTIONS.
THANK YOU FOR USING THE ELITE GROUP PROPERTY INSPECTION SERVICE, INC.

BY ACCEPTANCE OF OUR INSPECTION REPORT YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT
SCOPE OF THE INSPECTION / REPORT
We will perform a non-invasive physical examination designed to identify material defects in the systems,
structures, and components of buildings located on the property to be inspected, as they exist at the time of
the inspection. Our inspection will be limited to those specific systems, structures and components that are
present and visually accessible. We will only operate components and systems with normal user controls and
as conditions permit. Unless we agree otherwise, we will only inspect the primary building, and its associated
primary parking structure, on the property. We will also provide you with a report that describes and
identifies the inspected systems, structures and components and identifies material defects. We may amend
the report within twenty-four (24) hours after completing the inspection.
Unless we agree otherwise, we will perform the inspection, and issue the report, in accordance with the
mandatory parts of the current Standards of Practice (Residential Standards - Four or Less Units) of the
International Association of Certified Home Inspectors ("the InterNACHI Standards") and subject to the
Definitions, Scope, Limitations, Exceptions and Exclusions in the InterNACHI
Standards. Terms in this Agreement have the same meaning as the defined terms in the InterNACHI
Standards. The InterNACHI Standards are available from InterNACHI's website: http://www.nachi.org/
IF YOU DISCOVER A DEFECT FOR WHICH WE MAY BE LIABLE TO YOU, YOU MUST NOTIFY US AND GIVE US A
REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY TO RE-INSPECT THE PROPERTY BEFORE YOU REPAIR THE DEFECT. YOUR NOTICE

DISCLAIMER
Interior: Limited inspection on all occupied/staged structures, personal property, furniture and moving boxes prevent a complete
inspection. Recommend checking for permits on all additional construction including windows, patio roofs, out structures, garage
and attic conversions, etc. performed on the property after original construction. Built-in central vacuum systems are not inspected.
Bathrooms: Leaking bathtub and sink overflow drains and spa tub jet hoses cannot be detected with this inspection. Shower pans
are not leak tested consult the termite report. Exterior access panels are only inspected if readily accessible and operable (not
sealed or painted or screwed shut).
Kitchen: This inspection cannot determine how well the dishwasher cleans the dishes. Disposal blades are not inspected. Water
purifying systems and water softeners are not inspected. Non built-in appliances and built-in refrigerators are excluded from this
report.
Laundry: Water supply valves that are left in the on position for a long period of time tend to leak when turned off or do not shut
off completely. Supply valves cannot be tested whether a washing machine is present or not. Washer and dryer units not inspected.
Attic: The inspector cannot determine or test if asbestos materials exist throughout the structure. When attic insulation is covering
ceiling joists, we cannot completely inspect due to inspector safety concerns. Most attics are not completely accessible due to
limited space. Attic insulation and limited space prevent the inspector from performing a complete inspection of the attic area, not
all areas are accessible and will be determined by the inspector discretion. Temperature sensors and fans for attic exhaust systems
are not tested. Rodents: If there is visible evidence of rodents, it will be noted as such. Most rodent infestation exists under attic
insulation, in walls or in areas not visible to the inspector and cannot be identified with this inspection. Its recommended a pest
inspection be preformed whether or not evidence exists.
Heating &Air Conditioning: This report does not indicate if the heater is on recall, a follow up report will be emailed via RecallChek.
Electronic air filters are not inspected. Inspector cannot determine a crack in the firebox. Not all registers can be tested for pressure
flow, due to location, condition and operation of the heating &Air Conditioning system. Missing labels prevent RecallChek.
Water Heater: Circulating pumps, TPR Valves and pressure tanks cannot be tested with inspection. Solar water heaters are not
inspected. Tankless units that are not original to the structure should be further evaluated by a qualified tankless technician as
there are many aspects that are out of the scope of a general home inspection.
Roof: Chimney cavities are excluded from this inspection, recommend a chimney scope inspection be performed. Solar panels and
tube globes are excluded from this report. The inspector cannot determine whether a roof is water tight or not, under any
condition.
Electrical: Electrical and gas fires due to poor installation of wiring and faulty gas pipes cannot be determined by the inspector.
Exterior Areas: For damaged wooden areas and moisture problems (mold/mildew), consult the termite inspection report. See
interior section of the report for additional window and door information. Gas leaks or carbon monoxide poisoning cannot be
detected with this inspection, including all gas and propane systems interior and exterior of the structure. The operation of gas
appliance ventilation exhaust pipes cannot be detected. Recommend Gas Company to evaluate all gas areas before occupying the
property. Fire pits and exterior BBQ's are excluded from this inspection. Recommend mold and moisture damaged areas be further
evaluated by the appropriate licensed contractor throughout the structure.
Grounds: This report cannot determine if patio and porch roofs or patio enclosures are water tight. Low voltage lighting and
motion-detected sensors on light fixtures are not inspected. Sprinklers on timers are not inspected consult seller/association. Above
ground pools, ponds, waterfalls, birdbaths, and pumps used for these items, are excluded from this report. Steep hillsides and
inaccessible areas on the grounds are excluded from this report. It is highly recommend that all structures built on hillsides and
slopes have a geological inspection performed to determine if the structure is stable. This inspection cannot determine ground
movement or drainage issues.
Foundation: Sump pumps, septic tanks and sewer drain pipes from structure to street are excluded from this inspection. Soil levels
and stem walls prevent complete inspection of the under house area. Drain scope inspections are recommended whether a defect
is detected or not. Slab foundations are often covered and not visible; this is a limited inspection.
Pool: Solar panels are excluded from report. Valves that are not labeled for the pool and/or spa jets are excluded from this report.
Automatic pool fill float valves and electronic chlorine dispensers are excluded from this report. Portable spas have a limited
inspection. The inspector cannot determine pool or spa leaks. It is the buyer's full responsibility to ensure the pool area is in full
compliance with the safety laws and codes. If there is no self containing fence around the pool, all doors from the structure leading
to the pool and spa must be equipped with safety alarms and secondary latches above the reach of children. All gates leading to the
pool must self close and be equipped with a latch five feet or higher from the ground. The fencing in all cases must be five feet tall.
