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.
