New home inspection: What to look for.
Howdy friendos.
Taking possession of my new home in 3 weeks. We've been informed that we're not allowed to bring anyone else into the home while we do our inspection 1 week prior to possession. I've been perusing the interwebz looking for checklists and the likes for what to look for, but thought I'd tap into the CP knowledge base of what to do and what not to. This is my first home, so I'm a big rookie in the sense.
I've been told to make sure you flush the toilets, check all the taps for hot & cold, paint chips, loose floor boards... those sorts of obvious things, but is there more? Should I seriously be on my hands and knees looking at every tile on my floor?
Also, during construction, I noticed a considerable amount of sawdust accumulating in our uncovered ducts. They've had the furnace running since, but I'm concerned about dust etc. Surely they figure that out?
Thanks in advance.
