GENERAL INFORMATION:

KBC Building Inspections, Inc. has performed the inspection(s) in accordance with the conditions

established in the Service Agreement with the Client. The inspection did not involve destructive

testing; therefore, surface materials were not removed during the inspection. When there were

numerous similar items to be checked (i.e., windows, doors, electrical switches/receptacles, etc.),

a spot check of a representative number was performed. KBC Building Inspections, Inc. does not

check gas lines, appliances, etc. for leaks; therefore, if the property is serviced with gas, the Client

should obtain a satisfactory gas utility safety inspection. Repair work should not be performed

based solely upon this Inspection Report. Prior to the closing date, an appropriate licensed

contractor specializing in the specific area of expertise should further evaluate the system or item

to offer a recommendation for repair. Changes can occur to this property between the time of this

inspection and the closing date of the sale. The Client should personally inspect the property prior

to the closing date to confirm that nothing has been changed, altered or damaged.
