Re: IN DFW area: If you are new and need a practice inspection
No... that one is empty.

He had actually put a contract on another home and I went to look at it for him and was there (on site) all of 6 minutes!! That SOB was something that fell out the back-side of a farm animal.

He/I went driving around inthe same area and found this home during the monsoon of last weekend. I know it has an FPE panel, but it is in pretty good condition for a dumb-ass 23 year old and his family.

Man, you guys could clean up in this neighborhood!!! Of the 12 homes we stopped by, 6 had active termites---all these were in the same neighborhood.

I was scheduled to do a nice sized (4200 sq ft) home in Frisco tomorrow with a very nice fee, but that got moved to Tuesday. So, I'll probably go over there to Mo-skeet sometime tomorrow morning and take a gander...

I thought, with the home being empty and no one else being there, this would be a good opportunity for someone who is just starting out in the business to conduct an inspection on something other than their own home. I figured it would be a good learning experience since it does have an FPE panel and was built in the 70's.
