There's something wrong with your links for part 3 and part 4.

Try these instead.

You hit it right on the head. There are very few "safety concerns" that will leave you open to ligitation. Quote code and you can find yourself in deep ka-ka!

... any inspector who does not at the very least carry the "CodeCheck" series around with them is simply not providing the best service to his clients.
P.S. I agree, well said Gerry. I also teach a class on Building Codes for Home Inspectors, and I will usually start directly quoting code sections (say some of the NEC grounding and bonding provisions ... ouch) ... and I start seeing the eyes roll up and stars flying around their heads (the desired effect...).

Then I explain the practical reason behind the code requirements, and how to apply that to what is observed on an inspection (with a code section reference as just back up)... and then the light bulb goes on. It's amazing ...
