First Post - Introduction

[Richard Mitchell]

Hello everyone! I am new on here and I am from Canada. I am starting my home inspection business in 2008.

I would like to start off by asking everyone for some advice on what basic tools are necessary to have to conduct a basic home inspection. I have to order online because there are no suppliers up here or close by and I found a site but some tools do the same thing but some either do mulitple tasks or some are analog and some are digital and I would like to know what a guy can buy or should buy to inspect for moisture, CFM rate of a furnace and such. Any brand names or places to buy from would be great.

Nice to meet you and I look forward to learning a lot from this excellent forum.
