I liked this. I get up to mountain homes fairly frequently so it is nice to see something a little different in this video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! It's a DJI Mavic Mini. Get one through InspectorCoach.com at inspectorcoach.weebly.com/home-inspection-tools.html#drones
I’ve been in the profession for about 5 years now, approaching nearly 2,000 homes inspected now and have been internachi certified since day one. I appreciate ya, Ben. Yal are awesome.
That is awesome!
How long did it took you to become internachi? I’m interested but idk where to start and whats the process like. I would like to hear from you thank you.
@@vag4lvevo22 it took me like 3 months total to go through all the internachi training material, study and pass the state exam to get licensed. I would consider that quick since I devoted all of my time towards it and was lucky enough to pass all of the tests the first time. I’ve been told the tests have gotten a little tougher since then.
@@OgFurious1 oh ok. Thank you for the info.
Great video Ben 👍🏾
Thank you. Be sure to subscribe to get more.
Good job Ben, thanks for the video!
You bet!
Great video Ben,. The fireplace vent Reads " do not touch HOT"
Ouch.
I was looking at the sticker that said "Lift up to open" as he tried to pull it out instead.
thank you for this video
My pleasure.
All starting software templates should be based on InterNACHI"S SOP. I highly recommend their drone course!!
Ben, it's crazy how much you have grown with the evolution of inspection technology, education, and the future of home inspection!!! Love your new glasses!!!
A few questions:
Am I seeing this right? You're using InterNachi's sop on your phone from their site? Is this an official InterNACHI home inspection software? What talk-to-text are you using?
What drone are you using?
Thank you for sharing!!! We Appreciate all you DO!!

Thank you, OBHI.
it's sealed with mastic, that's fantastic! That immediately made me think of that Barbie song by Aqua from the 90's. Come on Ben-bi let's go party ah haha yeah! 😂
Yeah. Okay. Eh hem.
@10:22 is the fireplace vent venting in the continuous soffit vent? Appears to be....is that ok in your area. Never seen that before. Warm moistue air would be my concern, not the CO as much.
Right.
What drone is that Ben..also how to I get that check list you was using thanks

Great video! Was that furnace missing a drip leg?
Thought the same thing. Also, I know appliance connectors can’t enter the enclosure but can CSST?
@@cliffsalisbury1113 That is arc-resistant csst which has a thick plastic jacket. Maybe they are allowing that to enter the furnace now due to the thicker jacket?
Yes.
does this interactive checklist still exist? I found a downloadable PDF printable checklist, but nothing like what is on your phone. Thanks.
Yes. Click the button at the top of www.nachi.org/reportreview.htm
Thank you Ben, How do i get the check list software on my phone? Pls
Yes. Visit www.nachi.org/home-inspection-checklist.htm
I noticed that this is the 2nd video where Ben doesn't point out that there wasn't a water heater pan. Is it not required like I pressumed?
I skipped over stuff like that. It's not an actual home inspection for a fee-paying client. Just a video to get my main point across. Thanks for watching. Thanks for the comment. You're correct.
Would like to see that truck wrap and setup too ,

Your, comma, usage, is, upsetting.

What type of drone do you have? Or would you recommend getting started with?
DJI Mini
Hi Ben, great video. Please advise what model that Drone is? You said “Mini” but you did it say the model or manufacturer? Please advise ASAP as I want to get something soon to start practicing….
I believe it's the Mavic Mini judging by the gimbal cover. I have the same one.
@@blackrosethorn44 Thanks so much !

@@internachi hi Ben. I just received the Mini 2 and was practicing with it yesterday ! Much easier than i thought to operate. Almost finished the training on Internachi site and hope to take the exam next week to get certified. No more walking steep roofs for me!
Ben, where can I find the link for that mobile software?
Yes. It's at www.nachi.org/home-inspection-checklist.htm
Why didn’t you open up the electrical panels?
I do. Always. Not required though.
What drone was used for this roof inspection?
The DJI at inspectorcoach.weebly.com/home-inspection-tools.html#drones
What do you mean by "rake boards"
It's at www.nachi.org/inspection-glossary?q=rake&fields=words
What kind of drone do you have?
DJI Mini
What model Flir is that?
Cheap C2. I made a comparison at czcams.com/video/zYERTgD3ldA/video.html
20:24 copper touching electrical flex. huge problem will corrode over time and create a electrical hazard.
You’re right. Good catch.
What is the software called?
InterNACHI's Free Checklist Software. Visit www.nachi.org/reportreview.htm
I like the videos from this perspective better than a third party videographer. And I'm a videographer lol. It looks like we are playing a video game.
Thanks.
Thank you, very informative, However the video movement gave me a little motion sickness
Sorry about that. Thanks for watching.
that handsome devil could inspect my home anytime, am I right?
Stop it, I'm blushin'.
... crickets...
So I keep hearing from realtors how they aren't even recommending home inspections and haven't been for months...this business is sll about who you know or be willing to look over a things so realtors can make the sale... and spend thousands a month in marketing.
I've run into this as well. The only inspector I know that isn't having an issue is more of a realtors pet. Shadowed him one time and I noticed paint chipping and he told me, "If you point that out realtors will hate you" he also under played evidence of some serious and obvious water pooling at the front steps that needed attention. Guy never even mentioned it in the report. I could list a ton of stuff this guy chose not to put in the report or even mention to the buyers.
