Home inspection

Today was the home inspection for our new Virginia house!  The inspection went great.  My inspector said they built a really nice home and only had a couple points to bring up when I did the walkthrough with the builder.  Issue 1 - the outside patio stairs are not completed yet, they are about halfway done but will be done before closing next Friday.   Issue 2 - The AC unit has two zones, upper level and lower two levels, but the zones were not talking to each other.  If the heat or cool was on with one thermostat it was blowing on both levels.  The builder was already aware of this and said a part was ordered for the HVAC dampener and will be done prior to closing.  Issue 3 - Pluming - the water was not connected to the fridge for water/ice and one of the toilets was missing the tube that connects water from the pipes to the actual toilet.  Issue 4 - one of the central vac outlets was not working.   That was it, there were a couple really minor areas were painters will come around and touch up.   Next Friday at 9am I have another quick walkthrough to make sure all issues were fixed and then we close at 11am.

Here are some interior photos:

The unfinished basement - future gym! (long-term project)

Unfinished garage - this will be my project to paint and seal the floor prior to Dan's arrival


Here are some exterior photos of my house and neighbor houses:

Overall the house looked soooo nice!  I can't wait to move in June 29th, and I really can't wait for Dan, the dogs and all our belongings to arrive July 11th.
