Home Inspection for your Foreclosure Investment

Make these activities tax deductible. It is very important to keep a daily log. Include the date of visits, address of properties, and especially the round-trip mileage. Inspect the exterior. All aspects; siding, bricks, and stucco. Check the exterior material, windows, doors, seams, and cracks. Look over the outside foundation and all outside cement work. Remember, if there is any damage to the sidewalks or driveways, they need to be repaired. Any injuries caused by the damage not being replaced or repaired is your liability.

Inspect all of the outside walls for stains, mildew, odor or dampness. Look for cracks and water proofing. Inspect all the structures outside. Check all fencing, decks, and all out buildings. If there is any playground equipment make sure it is attached to the ground.
