Useful info from Nashville Scene

[Guest guest]

In November, writer Walter Jowers of the Nashville Scene newspaper wrote an

article which stirred up some hostile feelings on the sickbuilding page. He

is however a knowledgeable building inspector, and has written a few

articles of possible interest to those with home concerns.

The first, " Want to Buy a New House? Do it now, but get some pros on your

side " deals with buying a new home, what to look out for and how to be

protected to some degree.

gives practical advice on basement water problems, a major source of mold in

homes.

If you can tolerate Mr. Jowers' strange sense of humor, he really has a lot

to offer, and some of his articles really are humorous.
