One of the best I've seen.

That's just amazing.

I'm going to print many of those, page by page on the color laser, and spiral bind them as a reference.

In this Canada Mortgage and Housing study, 29 out of 40 condo buyers didn't bother to get a home inspection, numerous sellers lied on their disclosure forms, home inspectors used "soft language", etc, etc.
Usually, the root cause of the problems are improper flashing or installation of the waterproof membrane. And many of these buildings are still leaking.
