Elwood (from Tx),
Are you doing home inspections? My question to you was not (initially) about your license, but where you are located, since you did not fill out your profile.
However, since you did not fill out your profile and seeing that you are performing inspections in Texas, I attempted to look up your name and where you were-- No such record or licensee. This seemed to strike me as more than strange, since your post stated you were new to home inspecting. My offer to help would normally be if you were in the area, to provide you with a ride-along or assistance with your new business venture. But... that will not be possible if you are not licensed.
Unlike
some folks form Oklahoma, around here (Tx) we do care about the public perception of our inspectors. If you are doing inspections during business start-up, make sure they are practice only and for friends and family. Do not let anyone believe this is for a sale of real property.
By the way Dan... it was NOT valid question.

I'm new to Home Inspection and would like your input to see if i didn't miss anything"
That was not a question. He was looking for affirmation.
The question wanted to know if "
I didn't miss anything". The problem is... you cannot tell from the
partial photograph-- if anything was missed. First, he didn't state what he found (the four things) and the question was not a question but was put as looking for validation of his findings (which weren't posted) and second, he was asking an opinion of a partial photo.
The only thing that could be said was pretty much what Nick stated, that these are considered an issue with most
insurance companies.
