For your entertainment: This is a collection of the craziest, funniest, wackiest, or scariest things we have discovered while inspecting homes. Enjoy!

This house is very secure. Even the alarm has an alarm.
Baseboard heaters and extension cords are a fire hazard, hence the warning on the heater.
Good thing they labeled the attic. Otherwise we would have been lost.
A bee colony in transit, taking a breather.
A lone weed managed to grow through a crack in the slab and through the carpet
With enough time and wind, this little branch managed to wear through this roof shingle. Next stop: leak town
Home repair with recycled materials...
Home repair with recycled materials...
Dear TV installer: This is a downspout, not a conduit. It is meant for rain water, not for TV cable...
Now that's a cool doggy door! And it matches the style of the house, too
Why fix a leak when you can just put a bowl in there to catch the water?
This dryer vent pipe malfunctioned a long time ago and has been blowing dryer lint all over the attic
This house apparently comes with a special appliance for the ladies...
A light fixture with a metal pull chain directly in front of the electrical sub-panel. What could possibly go wrong...
Somebody apparently did not read the instructions on how to correctly install these garage door sensors
This home owner did a nice job building this fake wall to hide the water heater in the garage
There is something missing from this garage
We have no idea why somebody glued a golf ball to a vent pipe cap
There was honey oozing out of the bottom of the laundry room walls in several places and dead bees everywhere!
We walked around the house twice before we found this cleverly hidden hose bib and water shut-off
