There is always great information to be found

As the Atlanta Home Inspectors wife I do a lot of research online and I love ActiveRain for valuable information.  One of my friends, Michael Thorton, wrote a great article  about  an application called Nearby Tweets.  From the best I can tell it looks like a pretty cool application that you can find the local folks with.  I’m planning on going over myself and checking it out.   You should also head over to Michael’s blog as you never know what you are going to find there.  He shares some amazing pictures and some thought provoking messages. 

Merry Christmas everyone

Today has been such a wonderful day, talk about it being a lazy day, this has been it.  We got up early with the kids and spent the morning opening gifts.  There wasn’t a lot but you know really that’s not what it was  all about.  We spent the night up at my parents so we had three generations sitting around this morning and enjoying time together.  We had a wonderful breakfast and then pretty much went on to do what ever it was that we needed to do.  Right now, David is putting the finishing touches on the emergency home inspection he did for a gentleman yesterday, his due diligence time runs out Monday and David was already booked for the rest of this week, so he ran out and did the home inspection in Jasper yesterday.  Both of the kids are napping so I had a little free time to play on the computer. 

I keep thinking over this entire holiday week of how blessed we are.  It just reminds me when I look around and all my family is here together – getting a long wonderfully,  friends stopping in that we haven’t seen in a while just to hang out, how lucky I am.  May your 2009 be better than ever.  Merry Christmas everyone.

This was a cold day for home inspections

David, my husband who is an Atlanta home inspector was out doing an emergency inspection today.  Every time I look out side and heard the wind blow, I thought about how cold it was.  I wonder how home inspectors up in the north make it.  It was cold to me here today and I know several places that have snow right now.  Has anyone else wondered how they do a home inspection when there is snow on the roof of the home their suppose to be inspecting.  That is one of those things that I would mind having some feedback on.  When it snows and the guys up north still able to do an inspection?  I know when it rains, David is still out there.  Today was interesting because he got over to the home in Alpharetta and it was winterized.  The water wasn’t on so David could not perform the full inspection, he couldn’t check the kitchen or bathroom areas and several other items.  He’ll have to go back on Monday.  That is one of the things that most people don’t think about when calling for a home inspection, is all utilities need to be on.  Well that’s it for today. If you want to book a home inspection visit us at IHIHOMEINSPECTIONS.COM

 Back to my question tho, When it snows are the guys up north still able to do an inspection?  How does that work? 

The Day in the life of a home inspectors wife

Sometimes as a home inspectors wife it can be a little worrisome, the Atlanta market is not the most favorable for us.  But all in all we had a great year.  We we’re steady in home inspections, and we filled in with roof , pool and spa, and radon inspections.  There was a lot of people who didn’t realize that a new home needs an inspection  so we missed a few of those, but the ones we did we found several issues on every roof.  So if you’re buying a home in general make sure you get a home inspection.
