I'm Vernon Sloane, a retired home inspector. I've walked through houses where the buyers were already picking paint colours, and I had to tell them the thing they were standing on was going to cost them thirty thousand dollars. Nobody wants to hear it. Everybody needs to.

In this video I go through exactly what I'd look at, in the order I'd look at it, and what each finding actually means. Some problems look terrifying and are worth almost nothing. Others look like nothing at all and should end the viewing right there. Knowing which is which is the whole job.

Take ten minutes with this before your next viewing. You'll walk that house differently.

Subscribe and I'll keep showing you what I used to get paid to find.
