Inspections on the house are done. Two inspectors came by today.
One was inspecting for termites. I'n guessing she didn't find any sign of them because she left without saying anything to me.
The other was the home inspector. He found small things, nothing major. House is structurally sound. No safety issues. Mostly as he said, aesthetics and formal inspection notations. That's it.
Met the couple buying the house. They're both really nice. She has a 10 year old son. They like the location and the yard especially. Looked like they liked a lot of things about the house. I showed them around.
They don't want the work bench, so I'll be getting rid of that and the shelves in the workshop. Then paint that room.
My biggest concern was the electrical inspection. But that all came out okay. I knew it would be safe and meet code, I was just worried they would ding me for not all of it being done by an electrician. But he did not ask and I did not tell that I did most of it. He just checked the patency of the wiring, made sure there were no shorts. There weren't. Couple of spots under the house he said need junction boxes. Those were the same when I moved in. Never caused a problem. Just where two wires are connected. One connection is in a box and it just needs a cover.
I will work on a few of the things the inspector pointed out. Most of it is small. I made clear I will not work on anything in the crawl space.
Really happy that is over. My stress level was so elevated that I took a hit off the bong before anyone got here. I rarely do that during the daytime. Unless I am sick or stressed out.
