Geotech Inspection Passed

July 11th, 2008

Since this house sits a mere 50 feet or so from a steep cliff, I felt it necessary to call an experienced geotech inspector from the area in to tell me if the property was at risk for landslides or other natural disasters. The inspector, William Chang from Geo Group NW, started off telling me what most geotech people probably tell you if you are buying anywhere near the water:

“In 10,000 years, this will all be in the ocean anyway.”

Haha… but not exactly what I want to hear. :)

Mr. Chang spent the next hour showing me topo maps and checking out the soil and the hillside looking for telltale signs of erosion. He did not find anything alarming.

And so with that, I am going to sign off on the geotech inspection and make this Purchase and Sale Agreement binding!

Costs accrued during this stage:
