In this 4 hour comprehensive course, gain the essential knowledge and expertise required for high-quality structural inspections of decks, porches, and other exterior features. Real Estate professionals occasionally overlook these aspects during inspections due to the perceived infrequency of structural defects. However, such defects can be serious and costly to resolve, making them crucial to detect and address.

Decks and porches, commonly found in many homes, may represent additional components of a property, but they hold significant importance and, if neglected, can lead to expensive repairs or replacements. Standards dictate that these features be included in inspections—a fact that clients are well aware of and expect to be addressed in appraisal reports.

Through this course, enhance your understanding of decks and porches, their structural integrity, and the importance of thorough inspections. By honing these skills, you will become an invaluable and reliable resource for clients in determining the condition and affordability of their potential investments.
