Home inspection nightmares

Home inspection nightmares with photos. People do some crazy things out of ignorance or to save money. This Old House has photos to prove it. Here's two of my favorites:



















This bathroom outlet is not a GFCI. Thank providence, this homeowner had the presence of mind to leave all of the tags on, advising of potential shock hazard, should one carelessly remove the tags.















Not only did the homeowners install the water heater on its side, but they replaced the TPR valve with a large pressure gauge. Fortunately, the house was vacant and the heater not pressurized at time of inspection.
