The inspector will visually inspect the roof, specifically: The flashing, chimneys, gutters and downspouts. Structural inspectors then inspect the siding, trim, window, doors, decks and driveways\/ walkways. After the exterior is complete an inspector visually inspects the interior components of the home, such as: the walls, plumbing appliances and so forth. In addition to noting any visible defects relating to the structure, inspectors will often test each system inspected. Once the inspection is complete the inspector will produce a written report that describes the systems and components of the home and their current condition.<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/li>\n\n\n  <li class='accordion-item card' id='block_629d2705316d2'>\n    <button class=\"accordion-item__header\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#block_629d2705316d2-body\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"block_629d2705316d2-body\">\n      <svg fill=\"none\"\n  xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" role=\"presentation\">\n  <path d=\"m6 9 6 6 6-6\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n      What is the difference between Structural Inspection and Home Inspection?    <\/button>\n    <div id=\"block_629d2705316d2-body\" class=\"collapse \">\n      <div class=\"accordion-item__body\">\n        \n\n<p>The structural inspection license allows the licensee to inspect any attachment to realty, including homes.<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/li>\n\n\n  <li class='accordion-item card' id='block_629d2706316d3'>\n    <button class=\"accordion-item__header\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#block_629d2706316d3-body\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"block_629d2706316d3-body\">\n      <svg fill=\"none\"\n  xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" role=\"presentation\">\n  <path d=\"m6 9 6 6 6-6\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n      Why does an inspector inspect?    <\/button>\n    <div id=\"block_629d2706316d3-body\" class=\"collapse \">\n      <div class=\"accordion-item__body\">\n        \n\n<p>An inspector would inform all interested parties (such as buyer and seller) of any defects apparent with the properties current condition.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/li>\n\n\n  <li class='accordion-item card' id='block_62a201891a7e6'>\n    <button class=\"accordion-item__header\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#block_62a201891a7e6-body\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"block_62a201891a7e6-body\">\n      <svg fill=\"none\"\n  xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" role=\"presentation\">\n  <path d=\"m6 9 6 6 6-6\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n      How many hours of education are required before a prospective licensee can take the licensing exam?    <\/button>\n    <div id=\"block_62a201891a7e6-body\" class=\"collapse \">\n      <div class=\"accordion-item__body\">\n        \n\n<p>The state of Nevada requires a minimum of 40 hours of inspection education before an individual can take the state licensing examination.
