A house gas leak occurs when flammable natural gas escapes from damaged, loose, or old pipes and appliances. It is dangerous because the gas can cause sudden, massive explosions or fires from a single spark, and it pushes out indoor oxygen to cause suffocation or health harm

Mold is a type of tiny fungus that grows in damp places. It is dangerous because breathing or touching its spores can cause allergic reactions, trigger asthma attacks, irritate the skin and lungs, and lead to severe infections in people who are sick

A "major" pest issues in a house are termites, rodents (rats and mice), and cockroaches. They are dangerous because termites destroy the wooden structure of a building, rodents chew wires and spread dangerous diseases, and cockroaches trigger severe allergies and asthma.

Unpredictable/hostile occupants encountered during occupancy or field checks. This creates severe safety, legal, and physical risks for both the property and the inspector.

Unknown animals on your property can cause safety risks, spread dangerous illnesses, bite people, and damage your home or yard. Wild animals might carry rabies, ruin your garden, or attack if they feel trapped.

A downed power line is an electrical cable that has fallen to the ground, usually due to storms, high winds, or accidents. They are extremely dangerous because they often remain energized with thousands of volts, yet electricity is completely invisible, silent, and odorless.
