Let me tell you about my experience with the course. I'm a licensed contractor, but there's a world of difference between inspecting homes and building them. I learned a lot about what goes wrong with homes and what to look for after, say 10-15 years. I bought this course for my sons, but now they have me working part-time for them! It's absolutely worth the money -- just ask my boys! J.R., San Diego, CA               -More- BASIC HOME INSPECTION 1. Common Terminology 2. Limits and Exclusions 3. Site, Grounds, Grading 4.
