For 36 years I evaluated built environments at the highest institutional levels. Now I teach veterans to see what others miss before they sign.

What’s Inside

Ten red flags. Any showing. No equipment required.

Here are three of them.

The Roof That Droops in the Middle

What a sagging ridge tells you about the structure underneath, and what an inspection report typically documents about it.

Cracked Driveways and Walkways

How to read severity, what VA appraisers flag, and what the repair estimate looks like before you make an offer.

The Fresh Paint Patch on the Ceiling

Why a stain tells you water came through, why paint doesn’t tell you it stopped, and the one question to ask the seller before you believe “that’s an old stain.”

The guide is free. The knowledge is permanent.

Ten flags. Four phases. One walkthrough. Download before your next showing; it takes 30 seconds.
