What a Retired Utility Man Checks in the First 10 Minutes of Any Home Inspection

Spot electrical warning signs without opening a single cover: https://walt-brennan.netlify.app/ When I walk into a house, I can't stop working. Thirty years as a utility man taught me to listen past the refrigerator, smell the air, and clock the cable stapled to the outside wall before I've even taken my coat off. In this video, I'll walk you through the first ten minutes of any home inspection — in order — and show you the four things I already know about a home's wiring before anyone offers me coffee. Here's what I cover: - Why I'm always looking at the ceiling (and what it tells me) - What your outside walls give away on the walk up - The only two tools I carry: a flashlight and a ten-dollar plug-in tester - How to read a house without opening anything or touching live equipment If you want to protect your own home, this is where to start. #homeinspection #electricalsafety #diyhome #homeownertips #electrician
