Give this guy a reality show on one of those home improvement channels!
We agree. He's the best.

Facts! I would watch!
@@internachi ⁰
This guy replaced TIM ALLEN. TOOL TIME!!!
First thing we do before watching a TH-cam video is take a picture of it to show the screen before you play it, then watch the video, then take a picture to show it's just as you left it. If the video spins or pauses while watching I put it in my report.
Okay. Let me write that down.
Lol..made me laugh.
Accurate! Lol
😹
Is it ok if I just screenshot it?
This guy is nothing short of amazing. His attention to detail in everything he does is on another level. They don't make them like this anymore. What a gem.
He's the best. Thanks for watching and commenting.
THIS is the way all home inspectors should be. Some barely want to get out of their truck.
Agreed.
I agree with you and if the house passes every inspection... He should be able to take a dump in the John and don't flush just to tell the home owners that their house is the shit!! No problem 👍!!
You all probably dont give a shit but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Dakari Gregory instablaster :)
@Lionel Zaid i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Me, broke with no plan of ever owning a home: ✍ avoid ✍ R✍ 22✍ refrigerant✍. Got it.
How about inspecting the home you're in right now. Every home should be inspected.
Funniest comment on youtube
Missing you point, sorry, bout your broke part. R 22 is beside illegal out date. Im a licensed electrician an A/C troubles are 90% electric. It sounds like your showing how smart you are..I prolly forgot more than you know..
@@raymondsmallze5378 he's "prolly" not the guy to say that to.
@@sterlingwalter5971
R22 is pricey, but if it’s working properly, and many still do, “not worth fixing” is a bit out of his depth for a recommendation.
I had a homeowner call me in for a follow up HVAC inspection because of a home inspector report. Nothing wrong with the unit, other than being an R22 unit. The buyers wanted a $12k discount on account of that.
They lost the sale.
Last inspector I hired got into the property, flushed the toilet, and that was it! Ever since I called them professional “toilet flushers”.
This guy brings decency back to the profession.
We agree.
My girlfriend had a nys electrical inspector come in. Counted 4 outlets and charged $400. Typical ny.
I wish there was 10 more videos of this guy. He is just the best. Such a plethora of knowledge.
We agree. Thanks for the feedback. We have more videos at www.nachi.org/tv/home-page/home-inspection/
Rudolph Clausius look rand I’m mowin the air
The electrical panel on the side of the house is mind blowing
Yep. It's very common in about half of the U.S.
Jim Krumm is the most thorough Home Inspector I've ever encountered. He literally inspects down to the minutia like too much calcium on the faucet screens. He inspected a personal home I was selling, and it was a ridiculously thorough inspection.
He's the best.
I am starting my career as a Home Inspector in USA, and I am studying to obtain my Home Inspector Certification, after having performed a long life as Civil Engineer in Colombia. These videos are very illustrative to perform a good quality inspection. Thanks to Jim for share this amazing experience.
Good luck brother any man willing to work hard will make it
I enjoy these videos so much, I really respect Jim Krumm and the way he explains everything. I also wanted to give kudos that there was no music and who ever edited this video and added the pictures in major props. The video editing and style is just getting better and better.
Nice. Thank you for watching.

Buying my first home soon and the inspection is tomorrow. I was curious what the inspector will look at. This video was very educational. I hope my inspector is as good as this guy.
Thank you and best wishes to you, Kimarie.
How did your inspection go?
This guy is awesome. My father has been a licensed home inspector for 30 plus years and he knows his stuff at this level as well. It is inspiring to see this man provide quality service and exceed the standards of practice. Definitely watching his videos more on top of interning at a home inspection company.
Thanks for sharing!
Very good, but a little over kill
Sir, how does a job in this field work? Is it a steady job working 40 hrs a week for a company? Or is it all independent contract work? Are there seasons where things get slow? What do inspectors do when there is no work?
m 8 ok p q😊yy😊
My "inspector" was a hack no good piece of 💩. Money wasted. If he's out here trying to learn how to be a professional...I hope your family passed away from COVID and you aren't able to find work. I wished my inspector was more of what your video contained.
Gotta admit that this dude at least had some physics classes. Kudos on understanding settlement cracks and proper air flow practises.
That's right. He's the best.
As a first-time home buyer, this is a great video. Im no inspector so a lot of this will go over my head in practice but it gives me a way to do a preliminary visual inspection of the house before deciding a house is worth making an offer on. I definitely think after watching this video its more than worth it for me to hire a professional inspector before buying the home. Its just really cool to see what an inspector does and how a truly professional inspector would go about their job. Im a huge DIYer so this really helps me make an Educated guess on weather or not a fixerupper is worth the real inspection. Good video 10/10 almost overly informative
Thank you. To find a local inspector, visit www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors
Im currently wanting to switch careers and been looking into Home Inspection, This video sealed the deal for me. INCREDIBLE work. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Im looking to buy a home and I come here to educate myself about things to look for. Thank you for the videos. Also you look like you could be Jeremy Renner's uncle.
Welcome!
This video made me realize how expensive it is to own a property and keep it in shape!
Thank you for watching and commenting. More videos are at www.nachi.org/webinars
Now, this is what integrity looks like! It is a hit-and-miss when trying to find quality work from any profession, but I'm glad there are people like you out there that are honest, careful, and thorough, as integrity seems to be fleeting in this day in age. Great work! This video was very informative and educational!
Thanks.
easy to tell this man is a pro. great video. thanks
I appreciate that!
I can’t believe this guy made me watch 1.5 hours of hone inspection:D
Anyway, the first thing I learned as a homeowner to unplug everything and move the furnitures before the inspector comes, so he will have access to check more things.
First thing I was reminded of as a home buyer is to not look at homes that are still occupied.
He's the best. I recommend Check out my free, online class "How to Become a Successful Home Inspector" at www.nachi.org/webinars/2020/how-to-become-a-successful-home-inspector-1
Another good inspection video is at th-cam.com/play/PLKPEi6DdHVZyHK4tkfQuDKRPkBE5oWtuA.html
I don't agree with that advice. Most homes for sale are occupied existing homes.
@@bugwar5545 lol you're gonna cut down your options by 90% then
@@killthatbeast4392 Maybe, maybe not.
I know though that the homes I DO look at will not have anything covering up their defects.
Homes are too big an investment for me to risk having carpeting or furniture or any thing else hiding problems.
The content and the production quality of this video on home inspections is off the charts!

This man did the great job.💯
Appreciate that.
I don’t think anyone understands how excited I am to watch this later when I get in TH-cam mode. Thank you for making another video sincerely.
Thanks for the feedback, Jim. We have other inspection videos on www.NACHI.TV at www.nachi.org/tv/home-page/home-inspection/ that you might be interested in.
I was surprised there's so little inspection info for first-home buyers. Next year I will be buying my first apartment so this is a whole gold mine. Thanks inspector :)
Thanks for watching.
It’s fascinating to see how the homes differ in different states. I’m in Texas and I’ve never seen a safety tie off on a roof
Thanks for watching.
Great video. Who knew I'd be fine watching an hour long full length house inspection, lol. It put my mind at ease for an upcoming inspection on my house.
Glad it was helpful!
That's why I'm here too. Looking to address any issues before he does!
Thank you so much for this video. I am a new health inspector and portions of the job require us to do home inspections. Lots of fun and this video definitely has the best content and best individual teaching the tips and tricks here. Thank you Jim!!
Thank you for watching.
This man is definitely passionate of his profession.
You're correct, Gio. Home inspectors are passionate people. Eh hem.
this is the only ad I ever watched all the way and I am so happy to watch it again Dave is hilarious!
Nice.
Wow very detailed---Thank you for this. You're the best Jim!
Agreed.
Thank you. This is a fascinating process, appreciate the comprehensive behind the scenes look at what you do.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love your avoidance strategies such as specific roof shoes, and the fibre glass pole (instead of metal), and other pointers in this video. Thank you team for the service.
Glad you like them! If there's anything else you need, feel free to reach out to us at www.nachi.org/contact.htm
Heck, I'm addicted to watching these experts! I find it all so interesting as a new home owner what I should be looking for myself. Very well done. But does make me stay up at night with all that can go wrong with homeownership!!

Watching this made me wanna go inspect my house right now (it's 01:45 in the morning).
Okay.

Great video Jim. I could watch these all day. I Learn a lot everytime!
We agree. He's one of the best.
I didn’t know how much was involved !Thank you! Very good video!
Glad it was helpful!
Look and inspect an average of at least 300 seperate systems and componats and actually he keeps it simple here as often the components interact to cause issues which is where experiance matters.
About to purchase a home and just learned SO MUCH. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I've been watching your videos voraciously over the past few days - I'm planning to buy a house next year, and want to work with a NACHI member inspector, but I also want to be as informed as possible as a new homeowner. Thanks for all the great resources, and I've already bookmarked your member directory so I know who to call for my inspection!
Sounds great! Be sure to find a home inspector using our www.inspectorseek.com
Did you buy your house? Did it go well in regards to the inspection?
Awesome video. It really helps seeing the entire actual process being done. I would love to see one that is performed exactly as if the camera operator were the buyer. Or maybe from his body cam. I am also curious about what software he is running and how it is set up.
Great ideas and feedback, Marcello. I believe he's using HomeGauge. We have software resources at Step #11 on www.nachi.org/become-home-inspector.htm
Very in-depth walk through Jim! Very helpful to new inspectors. We'll be referring new Spectora users to this!
Thanks, Spectora!
Wow I can’t get enough of this video you make me want to become an inspector my self thank you
You should!
Very Professional presentation. I watched this video to get an idea of what a home inspection entails to be informed as a potential home buyer. As a bonus I found that a home inspector career is something that might be interested in and lines up with some of the inspection/attention to detail skills I learned in the military. Great video!
Thanks for watching. Every home should be inspected every year by a certified home inspector in your neighborhood. Find a home inspector at www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors
Did you ever see any action? Seems to me they are just running drills you know the theater of war an all.
I was in Aircraft maintenance…as a career it encompasses many technical skills among them are inspection and quality assurance coupled with adherence to stick procedures and standards.
I've built high end bathrooms as a self employed, mostly tile subcontractor, for the last 16 years in the Boulder/Louisville area. Currently I am considering a new path. I wanted to thank you for this detailed video. It is helping me analyze options with more clarity.
Thanks for sharing! And I suggest beginning by watching www.nachi.org/webinars/2021/business-marketing-webinar-for-internachi-members
How your new path going?
Thank you for your time and effort put into this great video!!
My pleasure!
Thank you so much for the quick glance into the world of home inspections, this career path looks very interesting! Well done.👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am learning about property inspections to help me as a investor but, man.. this guy is Amazing and knowledgeable! He walked the roof with ease like a champ! Kudos👏👏👏
Thank you, Shay, for watching. You may be interested in more videos at www.nachi.org/tv/home-page/class-schedule/
Great video. I'm a licensed Architect looking into also becoming a licensed home inspector and was curious how much deeper the inspectors go from our final punchlists/walkthroughs. Nice to see this level of detail.
Check out some sample reports at www.nachi.org/home-inspection-report-samples.htm
bruh, if you're an architect you're already MILES ahead of what these dudes do.
I just started my home inspection course and this video is helping me understand the book much better! Thanks!!
Glad it helped! We have more at th-cam.com/play/PLKPEi6DdHVZyHK4tkfQuDKRPkBE5oWtuA.html
I am watching these videos just to hear Jim's voice :D very relaxing!
Very. Ummm.
I really like this guy and how thorough he is with his explanation. I'm glad I started taking online courses with interNACHI. Can't wait to complete it
Great to hear! Welcome.
Are you finish with your class ?
I'm an aspiring investor and I want to do this just for the knowledge and to make sure there aren't any major gotchas I miss with a property.
Right. Good idea. You'll want to hire a certified inspector using inspectorseek.com/
❤❤❤❤❤Yassss, Thank you! Thank you for a professional video on home inspecting 🎉
Thank you for watching and commenting.
An excellent gentleman, thank you Sir
He's an excellent home inspector too.
What a great video! Hope you company traveled to CA, I would definitely hire you!!
Best regards
I hope so too! Thank you.
I just like hearing him say picture and roof
Thanks for watching.
I love this video! Great job. Very concise explanations. Thank you!
Thank you for watching.
You can't get nothing over on this guy. Lol He seems like he knows his stuff. Great video! 👍
He's the best. Thanks for watching and commenting.
What a great video. I had such a different experience. My inspector was only in the house for 45 mins and only gave me 14 page report. The house is only 5 years old and he only found roof problems. Maybe that's why the inspection was so short. 🤷🏻
Oh wow!
I hit this man's channel accidentally. He is beyond excellent in his knowledge and demeanor--a real teacher. I have paid for home inspections a few times or more over the decades and all were damn near a ripoff. I wish the last offer I submitted had me with this man's professional inspection. Would have made me much dinero.
InterNACHI Home Inspectors are the best. Find one at www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors
Next time, hire an engineer to properly appraise the property. This dude doesn't know much either nor can he actually budget what you need to keep your property running.
He's just taking pictures and pointing out common sense. This is the typical american-made laughable job.
@@user-qh6vz6cx8n thing is, most people don't know the functions of your house.
Very insightful. The pro tips are priceless. Much appreciated!!
Glad it was helpful!
Jim, great educational video. I just purchased a home and will be keeping your notes for my inspection. Thank you!
Jim is the best.
I have been doing home inspections for 17+ years, and as an electrical engineer and former field electrician, my first observation of watching the first 14 minutes of your video is that obviously you've never been nailed at a breaker panel. If you had, you would not be using a standard screwdriver to turn/remove screws anywhere on that panel. You're also asking for a possible fatal shock when you remove the dead front using both hands. I NEVER remove any panel screws without using an insulated screwdriver and magnetic insulated handles to remove the dead front. I have come across more than one panel screw that was installed next to a hot wire inside the panel, and when it was removed it scraped the insulation off that wire and made quite a flash. You also better hope that you don't slip when removing that dead front with your bare hands and allow the metal to touch any part of that buss.
Thanks for the feedback, Gary. Home inspectors must consider safety their #1 priority. We agree.
@@frankm5019 You must be a great friend to have
I've had the screw through the wire thing happened to me before. It sucked.
I've just got my certification and will now buy an insulated screw driver. Thanks for the great tip!
That's a home depot screwdriver sir, fully insulated I bet.
I wish you could be my teacher for anything. Very interesting. Just watching to know what inspectors check for. I'm going to fly you to Texas for my home purchase.
Very nice, Jennifer. Thanks for watching. To find a local inspector, use www.inspectorseek.com.
Girl he's married. Goodness. Get some water to quench all that THIRST!
@@efaciler2462 lol. Not thirsty. Just liked how patient he is. Maybe you're the thirsty one thinking like that.
Going for a buyer's inspection today. This was helpful. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
This is inspector is good. Just Outstanding. He deserves a show.
Good and outstanding. I agree.
Can you explain or point me where to find more info on what he meant when he said, when a furnace and or water heater are in close proximity to a dryer gas or electric there is a chance of of starving the equipment of combustion air. How would an electric dryer pull air back out of a water heater flue for example, thanks
A dryer, even an electrical dryer, is a mechanical ventilation appliance. It exhausts air out of the house. Through is dryer vent pipe. So, it's exhausting indoor air that could/may be used for combustion. It's a common scenario. That's why IRC Chapter 17 is dedicated to combustion air codes.iccsafe.org/content/IRC2018P3/chapter-17-combustion-air
Can we get a video on the return air and supply air difference
Yes. I'll add that to our long list of upcoming video requests. That should be a good one.
Great video!! I'm moving to my new home and going to inspected next Monday. So you have open my eyes with lots of knowledge and tools for a porper inspection. Thanks again!😁
Thanks for watching and commenting.
I can’t believe how much I enjoyed going along on this home inspection!
He's the best.
Im getting out of high school and want to pursue this as a career until invest in real estate
Nice. Be sure to start at www.nachi.org/everything
Finish High school, do this after school or in the weekends for now.
Good career move. Had I known this 30 yrs ago I would not have gone to med school. 😂 This guy is thorough and a pro...
Agreed. 2 inspections per day minimum of $600 a day...
Go to college they said 😂
Stupid ass civil engineering degree. I quit my job and make more as a handyman. Home inspections coming soon!
Does it take any degrees,or further education??
You can tell Jim likes to party !
Oh, yeah. A "house" party. Get it? House inspector. House party.
Lol instead of a ribbon cutting after the inspection . Its a cork popping party. lol
This is amazing home inspection video, hope everyone either do their own inspection according to this video, or get professional home inspector like this guy to inspect their house.
Agreed.
This is awesome! I'm a Realtor and I'll start sharing this video to my buyers before their home inspection!
You're awesome, Briggs.
The moment he was on the roof
Was so intense I thought he could fall at any time so scary 😱😱😱.
Very scary.
I dis agree- it is not the home inspectors job to "de value" a house because of older equipment- It is not a defect ! Too many home inspectors take it too far and devalue because they feel they need to "find" something. An old AC UNIT IS NOT A DEFECT AND ONLY STATE IT'S AGE AND EXPECTED LIFE. These inspections have killed deals for no good reason
I disagree. Home inspectors do not kill deals. There's a buyer for every house. And the condition of a system, including its age, should not be a problem for someone who has found their dream home.
We learn a lot from his videos all instructor from internachi. Are the best
Thank you, Carlos. Stay safe and healthy.
Learned a lot , thanks jim
He's a great InterNACHI certified home inspector. To watch more videos, visit th-cam.com/play/PLKPEi6DdHVZx3zjbre1zswswWWCZBHAaK.html
Well my house failed lol
Oh, gosh. Home inspectors do not pass or fail houses. They just inspect and report their observations.
Bad ass hair
We agree.
Eddie Munster look alike contestant
Excellent video, thank you! I would written up the saddle valve on the cold water pipe on the water heater for he humidifier as a potential lead source and it might be illegal to use too as in some states.
Thank you for watching.
Just had a tour with you inspecting the house. It is very informative and helpful. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for watching.
Wow! This guy, no house on planet earth would pass. Next video tell everyone that they need 4 million dollars to repair everything you made a comment about. And next video inspect your own home and let me know if it would pass, lol. I seriously doubt it.
Thanks for watching, Mark.
You're not kidding Mark,my house is 20 years old and I could pick it apart, there is inspectors around here that kill a lot of deals. I'm sellingy home as it is right now not what it might need in 5- 10 years.
Gearing up to get my feet wet in Home Inspections. Great Video. I will watch repeatedly. Must Absorb All the Knowledge
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks, Jim, appreciate the video
You are very welcome.
Will be starting to take RHI classes in the fall at my local tech. college. Its always good to get a little head start! thanks for this
Good luck! What does RHI stand for? Residential Home Inspector? If yes, then I recommend becoming a Certified Professional Inspector at a tuition-free online college -- internachi.edu/
What a great video, it was worth sitting through the whole thing
Great to hear. Glad you enjoyed it.
This was so unexpectedly, enjoyable! Thank you sir
Glad you enjoyed it!
this guy is so thorough and professional .he should have his own show
Jim is the best.
thanks for a great example of an inspection--Nice
Glad you liked it!
I definitely agree with the ladder safety. If I know someone is using the ladder, I personally will stay right by the ladder for safety. I have always done that for anyone, especially roofers or inspectors it just puts my mind at ease knowing that if something happens to them, someone has their back.
Awesome. Thanks for watching the video and for replying. For more home inspection videos, please visit www.nachi.org/webinars
Great video! really enjoyed and learned a lot thinking about becoming an inspector
