American Dream cannot and does not look behind drywall, paneling, wall papering, under carpeting or other floor covering, above drop ceilings, or other areas that may be blocked or impeded by furniture, personal items, or other structures. While it is rare, some homeowners purposely conceal damage or defects in the Subject Property. This type of concealment is difficult to detect in a visual inspection. Any comments (either oral or in writing) provided as a courtesy by the inspector relating to items not included in the inspection are to be considered partial and incomplete.

In addition, American Dream Home Inspection does not tacitly endorse or guarantee the integrity or safety of any structure or any component that was built or installed without a City or County Building permit, and which could include latent defects, or any item that may have been subject to a manufacturer’s recall. It is the client’s responsibility to research and verify all permits obtained for the inspected property. The client agrees and understands that whereas American Dream Home Inspection may report on suspicious stains or mold-like substances, that the inspector is not an environmental hygienist and is not licensed, qualified, or authorized to identify or test any purported mold or fungi.
