As requested, we have performed a property inspection report for the address above.

Thank you for choosing BUILDING SPECS INC. to perform a visual inspection on the above property. We've taken great
pride developing a reporting system we feel is unique to the industry. It's with pleasure that we submit it to you at this time.
You are encouraged to read the entire report, as it will give you a detailed overview of the general condition of the property.

Please understand an inspection is intended to assist you in evaluating the overall condition of the property. The inspection
report is an aid to help you make a more informed purchasing decision. Also understand that there are limitations to this
inspection. Many components of the building are not visible during the inspection and very little historical information is
provided in advance of the inspection. While we can reduce your risk of purchasing the building, we cannot eliminate it, nor
can we assume it. Even the most comprehensive inspection cannot be expected to reveal every condition you may
consider significant to ownership. The inspection is based on observation of the visible and apparent condition of the
building and its components on the date of the inspection. It is not intended to make any representation regarding latent or
concealed defects that may exist. It is not intended for cosmetic or aesthetic evaluation.

Our purpose is to determine whether or not a system ( electrical, heating, etc.) is working properly. We are not responsible
to determine all that may be wrong with that system, just whether or not a second opinion is needed by a qualified trades
person dealing with that system. They determine what course of action will be necessary to correct. Their evaluation may
reveal additional items not mentioned in our inspection report.

Photographs, when provided, are simply a tool to convey our findings, they are not intended to enhance those findings or
diminish any findings not photographed.

BUILDING SPECS, INC. follows the standards of practice and code of ethics established by the California Real Estate
Inspection Association. These can be reviewed at www.creia.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=3283

If you have any questions regarding this report or the condition of the property, please feel free to call anytime.

                                                    FOUNDATION & STRUCTURE
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: In accordance with our standards of practice, we identify foundation types and look for any evidence of structural
deficiencies. However, minor cracks or deteriorated surfaces are common in many foundations and most do not represent a structural problem.
Any cracks or water damage should be repaired and monitored as needed by a licensed or qualified individual. Severe problems such as major
cracking, amateur work or water damage could lead to a structural failure. If major cracking is visible we recommend further evaluation by a structural
engineer. Any cracks need to be monitored to determine if active or from previous movement. All concrete floor slabs experience some degree of
cracking due to shrinkage in the curing process, soil conditions, seismic activity etc. In most instances floor coverings prevent recognition of cracks or
settlement in all but the most severe cases. Where carpeting and other floor coverings are installed, the materials and condition of the flooring
underneath cannot be determined. Areas hidden from view by finished walls or stored items cannot be judged and are not a part of this inspection.
However, we are not specialists, and in the absence of any major defects, we may not recommend that you consult with a foundation contractor, a
structural engineer, or a geologist, but this should not deter you from seeking the opinion of any such expert.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Although not required to, we generally attempt to evaluate various roof types by walking on their surfaces. If we are
unable or unwilling to do this for any reason, we will indicate the method used to evaluate them. Every roof will wear differently relative to its age,
number of layers, quality of material, method of application, exposure to weather conditions, and the regularity of its maintenance. W e can only offer
an opinion of the general quality and condition of the roofing material.

The inspector cannot and does not offer an opinion or warranty as to whether the roof leaks or may be subject to future leakage. The waterproof
membrane beneath roofing materials is generally concealed and cannot be examined without removing the roof material. Although roof condition can
be evaluated, it is virtually impossible for anyone to detect a leak except as it is occurring or by specific water tests, which are beyond the scope of our
service. Even water stains on ceilings or on framing within attics will not necessarily confirm an active leak without some corroborative evidence, and
such evidence can be deliberately concealed. We cannot predict roofing materials remaining life expectancy, or guarantee that it will not leak.
Naturally, the sellers or the occupants of a residence will generally have the most intimate knowledge of the roof and of its history. Therefore, we
recommend that you ask the sellers about it, and that you either include comprehensive roof coverage in your home insurance policy. We do not
inspect attached accessories including by not limited to solar systems, antennae, and lightning arrestors.

Our inspection of living space includes the visually accessible areas of walls, floors, cabinets and closets, and the testing of a representative number
of windows and doors, switches and outlets. We do not evaluate window treatments, move furnishings or possessions, lift carpets or rugs, empty
closets or cabinets, nor comment on cosmetic deficiencies. We may not comment on cracks that appear around windows and doors, along lines of
framing members or along seams of drywall and plasterboard. These are typically caused by minor movement, such as wood shrinkage, common
settling, and seismic activity, and will often reappear if they are not correctly repaired. Such cracks can become the subject of disputes, and are
therefore best evaluated by a specialist. Floor covering damage or stains may be hidden by furniture, and the condition of floors underlying floor
coverings is not inspected. Determining the condition of insulated glass windows is not always possible due to temperature, weather and lighting
conditions etc., check with owners for further information. Testing or identifying the source of environmental pollutants or odors (including but not
limited to lead, mold, allergens, odors from household pets and cigarette smoke or chinese drywall) is beyond the scope of our service, but can
become equally contentious or difficult to eradicate. We recommend you carefully determine and schedule whatever remedial services may be
deemed advisable or necessary before the close of escrow. Identifying the presence of "Chinese Drywall" is beyond the scope of our inspection.

Thank you for choosing BUILDING SPECS INC. to perform a visual inspection on the above property. We've taken great pride developing a reporting system we feel is unique to the industry. It's with pleasure that we submit it to you at this time. You are encouraged to read the entire report, as it will give you a detailed overview of the general condition of the property. Please understand an inspection is intended to assist you in evaluating the overall condition of the property. The inspection report is an aid to help you make a more informed purchasing decision. Also understand that there are limitations to this inspection. Many components of the building are not visible during the inspection and very little historical information is provided in advance of the inspection. While we can reduce your risk of purchasing the building, we cannot eliminate it, nor can we assume it. Even the most comprehensive inspection cannot be expected to reveal every condition you may consider significant to ownership. The inspection is based on observation of the visible and apparent condition of the building and its components on the date of the inspection. It is not intended to make any representation regarding latent or concealed defects that may exist. It is not intended for cosmetic or aesthetic evaluation. Our purpose is to determine whether or not a system ( electrical, heating, etc.) is working properly. We are not responsible to determine all that may be wrong with that system, just whether or not a second opinion is needed by a qualified trades person dealing with that system. They determine what course of action will be necessary to correct. Their evaluation may reveal additional items not mentioned in our inspection report. Photographs, when provided, are simply a tool to convey our findings, they are not intended to enhance those findings or diminish any findings not photographed. BUILDING SPECS, INC. follows the standards of practice and code of ethics established by the California Real Estate Inspection Association. These can be reviewed at www.creia.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=3283 If you have any questions regarding this report or the condition of the property, please feel free to call anytime.

FOUNDATION & STRUCTURE IMPORTANT INFORMATION: In accordance with our standards of practice, we identify foundation types and look for any evidence of structural deficiencies. However, minor cracks or deteriorated surfaces are common in many foundations and most do not represent a structural problem. Any cracks or water damage should be repaired and monitored as needed by a licensed or qualified individual. Severe problems such as major cracking, amateur work or water damage could lead to a structural failure. If major cracking is visible we recommend further evaluation by a structural engineer. Any cracks need to be monitored to determine if active or from previous movement. All concrete floor slabs experience some degree of cracking due to shrinkage in the curing process, soil conditions, seismic activity etc. In most instances floor coverings prevent recognition of cracks or settlement in all but the most severe cases. Where carpeting and other floor coverings are installed, the materials and condition of the flooring underneath cannot be determined. Areas hidden from view by finished walls or stored items cannot be judged and are not a part of this inspection. However, we are not specialists, and in the absence of any major defects, we may not recommend that you consult with a foundation contractor, a structural engineer, or a geologist, but this should not deter you from seeking the opinion of any such expert.

ROOFS IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Although not required to, we generally attempt to evaluate various roof types by walking on their surfaces. If we are unable or unwilling to do this for any reason, we will indicate the method used to evaluate them. Every roof will wear differently relative to its age, number of layers, quality of material, method of application, exposure to weather conditions, and the regularity of its maintenance. W e can only offer an opinion of the general quality and condition of the roofing material. The inspector cannot and does not offer an opinion or warranty as to whether the roof leaks or may be subject to future leakage. The waterproof membrane beneath roofing materials is generally concealed and cannot be examined without removing the roof material. Although roof condition can be evaluated, it is virtually impossible for anyone to detect a leak except as it is occurring or by specific water tests, which are beyond the scope of our service. Even water stains on ceilings or on framing within attics will not necessarily confirm an active leak without some corroborative evidence, and such evidence can be deliberately concealed. We cannot predict roofing materials remaining life expectancy, or guarantee that it will not leak. Naturally, the sellers or the occupants of a residence will generally have the most intimate knowledge of the roof and of its history. Therefore, we recommend that you ask the sellers about it, and that you either include comprehensive roof coverage in your home insurance policy. We do not inspect attached accessories including by not limited to solar systems, antennae, and lightning arrestors. 600] ROOF 6.1 General Comments: Repairs Recommended. 601] VIEWED FROM 6.1 Walked On. 604] ASPHALT/FIBERGLASS 6.2 Shingle Type: Laminated-Architectural Style. 6.3 Observations: Appears Adequate. 6.4 CAPS / HIPS Appears Adequate. 609] ROOF STYLE 6.5 Predominant Style: Hip. 610] FLASHING 6.6 Flashing Materials: Steel. 6.7 Valley Flashing: Appears Adequate. 6.8 Chimney Flashing: The Calking is old dried out and brittle and should be replaced.

INTERIOR Our inspection of living space includes the visually accessible areas of walls, floors, cabinets and closets, and the testing of a representative number of windows and doors, switches and outlets. We do not evaluate window treatments, move furnishings or possessions, lift carpets or rugs, empty closets or cabinets, nor comment on cosmetic deficiencies. We may not comment on cracks that appear around windows and doors, along lines of framing members or along seams of drywall and plasterboard. These are typically caused by minor movement, such as wood shrinkage, common settling, and seismic activity, and will often reappear if they are not correctly repaired. Such cracks can become the subject of disputes, and are therefore best evaluated by a specialist. Floor covering damage or stains may be hidden by furniture, and the condition of floors underlying floor coverings is not inspected. Determining the condition of insulated glass windows is not always possible due to temperature, weather and lighting conditions etc., check with owners for further information. Testing or identifying the source of environmental pollutants or odors (including but not limited to lead, mold, allergens, odors from household pets and cigarette smoke or chinese drywall) is beyond the scope of our service, but can become equally contentious or difficult to eradicate. We recommend you carefully determine and schedule whatever remedial services may be deemed advisable or necessary before the close of escrow. Identifying the presence of "Chinese Drywall" is beyond the scope of our inspection.
