Default Excel List of report descriptions

Hi,

I've recently purchased an inspection report software that I liked, however, I'd like to populate it with a better list of common descriptions for conditons of everything in the report. The software will allow you to add as many as you want, so I'd like to fill it up. Does anyone have an Excel or Word list of common descriptons they wouldn't mind sharing?


Thanks,

Steve

Steve, I have that same list, but in Word Format and items to 475.
If it helps you more with this version, let me know.

PDF format cannot be edited I believe.

Marcel,

That would be great. Could you attach the list or E-mail it to me? I'm just getting started in the Home Insection business as you can probably tell. I'm trying to start it while working full time. It's my Plan B right now until I can get up and running, then hopefully it will be my career.



Regards,

Steve

I have the narratives in a word doc too but couldn't upload due to size. I can email it if needed.
