Kyle, I have a home inspection happening on Friday which I plan to ask about this question, but I would like to get some of your thoughts on this. I am getting multiple different answers from some of my very handy friends so I would like to get to know if this is per code and if this is normal

Just had a home inspection done and all things considered it went quite well. The two main concerns are the furnace which is 26 years old and has rust in the housing (inspector recommended getting into an insurance plan for 20 dollars a month). And the cold cellar ceiling under the front porch has a very rusted beam.

What are your thoughts with these items? Thanks!

Just did a home inspection for a place in Ohio. The inspector called out a vertical crack in the garage. He thought it looked okay, part of normal settling. My understanding vertical is better than horizontal. Is this normal or should an engineer be consulted?

Hi, I'm trying to be a proactive homeowner and also enjoy fun gadgets (currently have a GQ Geiger counter), but would prefer something relatively affordable/reasonable (<$1000).

What are your detection device recommendations regarding:

• Moisture
• Thermal
• Electrical
• Gas
• Radon
• Circuit Breakers
• Anything else?

Thank you!
