How to inspect a house: Exactly what to look for before you buy

Like a tour with a trusted handyman, this book shows readers how to check a house's foundation, roof, wiring, plumbing, heating, and more. It also covers termite reports, making an offer, and in a new chapter, hidden health hazards. Homebuyers learn to spot trouble and ask the right questions, while homeowners learn how to keep their homes safe and efficient.
