Default Incredible-;)

First Inspection I have ever said forget it, I'm leaving, couldn't turn on the water because the main water pipe was cut off flush with the walkway, service ground missing, just to name a couple issues, (some) of the pictures tell a pretty good story.



Guy was in the back yard.



Main water line cut off flush with the walkway.




Ground Missing--




A/C's had issues---



Evaporative Coolers had issues---




All the range hood were torn from the walls.




Tub-Showers had issues---







ALL windows had issues--




Sinks had some problems as well---






Kitchen had some problems---














And I could go on and on, but I need a drink---

Let me get this straight.
This was an Inspection or were you hired to give estimates as a GC.?

It always amazes me when someone orders a inspection on a property like that.
